I have a line on a 97 Z28 six speed with a hurt engine, car is all stock....for a good price.
What do I need at a minimum to track day it, a dedicated trackday car. Can I put vette brakes on the front and LS1 brakes on the rear? I am gonna gut the car, totally gut it. Try to get it to 3000 lbs. What suspension do I NEED on this car? I am a novice..where do I need to start? As far as tires, brakes, suspension....I know I need a bar, belts and seats. David |

I can get the car for $2000. I have friends that are instructors..I will get my schooling that way..they go to a good amount of trackdays..I have been alot and ridden with them..rented a car and did it once. I think I should at least lower the car, put on some vented rotors and shed some weight..that's just me thinking out loud. I have no plans of doing cmc or ai...we are getting a road course here in Lower Alabama in the next 3 years....the guys I know go to No Problem, Barber and Road Atlanta. Is the F body or Fox Mustang a better platform?
Thanks again David |
