[QUOTE="auto_x5.0, post: 1001517, member: 9508"] Most people have stated the obvious, remove all lose parts from your interior, take cd cases out of your console lol I left some in there and through tight turns they would clunk I thought I was hitting cones. Remove center caps, etc. Tire pressure should be around 40 in the front and mid 30s in the rear, that's what I run. Don't go out and buy super sticky tires, they cover up your mistakes. Do not coast at all, you either need to be on the brakes or on the gas at all times. Try to find a CG lock or a harness of some sort, you will find yourself trying to hold yourself still around fast corners in stock seats. Don't downshift unless you absolutely have to, on a average course most of it should be in 2nd gear. Smooth on the throttle, dont hammer down all the time. Also, walk the course as many times as you can especially if there is a slalom that is choice, which is where you pick if you want to go at it from the left or the right. Ask to take ride-alongs with more experienced drivers, try to stick with RWD cars as they drive more of the line that you will. Just go have fun, don't be a jackass and try to slide or try to hit cones because course workers have to pick that shit up(usually me lol) [/QUOTE]
