My VW R32 driving buddy (also an experienced motorcycle track day guy like me) has been bugging me about taking the T/A up to one of those 2 tracks this year for a track day. I'm leaning towards it, but am a little nervous about the car.

Currently:
Strano springs/koni's/36mm Strano front sway, 1LE rear sway.
Brembo 4-pot calipers F (CTS-V), C6 Z06 rotors (14"), stock pads/calipers/rotors rear, Ate SuperBlue fluid (fresh)
Stock driveshaft, 10 bolt, T2R diff, 4.10 GM gears.
Poly motor/trans bushings, homemade LCA's (solid rubber chassis end, UMI roto-joint axle end)
BMR full-length torque arm, still attached to trans.

Motor makes 405rwhp, 140k miles on it.

18x9.5" front, 265/45 Michelin PS2, 19x11 rear, 305/30 Michelin PS2, on SSR wheels.

That's about all I can think of for now... My question is what do I absolute NEED before the track day, and what would make life much better, but not mandatory? (i.e. cage, better seats, harnesses, etc.)

He feels that I'm good to go with what I've got, but my car weighs about the same and is about twice as powerful as his...

Friend of mine has these on his street car, I guess he says the rotors need to be replaced, but the hats and hardware are fine..

He'll let them go cheap, but isn't sure how much to ask for them.. offers?

Saw an intro from a new member on the LS1tech boards that caught my eye.. http://www.ls1tech.com/forums/introduction...um-autoxer.html

I figured he'd already be a member here, but... in case he's not..

Came from my car, does need a new rear u-joint, but the front feels fine, with no tight spots.

I'm looking for $75, but I have NO idea how i'd ship this sucker, but I wanted to offer it up here for you guys (and gal)

I just took a set off my car... Figured I'd put them here first before ebay or the LS1tech board..

Not sure what to ask for them yet..
