I've done a lot of track days the last several years with street cars (NJMP mostly, some at Summit and VIR) and recently decided to switch back to a SRF for a track day car this year with the possibility of racing at some point (late 2018, maybe 2019).
So I just picked up a Gen2 in great condition (thanks Todd!) that finished top 10 at the Indy runoffs last year and had good results in other events throughout the year.
Looking through the car last evening, everything looks in good shape. My local non-CSR shop can't take me for a checkup for two weeks, and I have not heard back from my local CSR, so I'm planning to do a few things and then take it to my next track day next week.
Here are the things I'm planning to do just so I have a baseline for maintenance:
- Safety check on all suspension fasteners
Change engine oil and filter
Change trans fluid
Replace rotors (front slots still visible, rears partly gone)
Replace pads
Flush brake fluid
Replace air filter
Top off water (add water wetter?)
My belts expired 2017 so I'll order replacements but will go ahead and run them (non-SCCA track day).
Can you guys/gals suggest anything that I've missed?
Thanks!
John
