That is the course I will be running. I am ordering the following in anticipation.

1. Hotchkis sway bars. (front&rear)
2. TRD rear strut tower brace
3. RMM front strut tower brace.


Are these wise choices? How should I be setup as far as toe etc. Also tire pressure.

I have Potenza RE730's..... is that gunna suck? thanks for all your help....

Sounds fine. Just drive and enjoy. Your tires will heat up more than in autocross, so check them after a few laps to make sure they're not overinflated. Negative camber will help, but you should be able to find more detailed answers by using the search function.

No toe is really needed, though many of us run some front toe-out and some rear toe-in for autocross. If you get the crash bolts, you can shoot for -1.5 to -2.2° camber in the front. This will prevent massive understeering. You should bump the front tire pressures to around 40psi, and leave the rears at 30-32 for starters. See how the tires do and watch that they don't roll over onto the sidewalls too much.

Have fun and drive safely. You need your car to get back home I assume. Listen to your instructor if you have one.
