Do you have a spare tire or dedicated track wheel set that you will bring?

My tires are PSS as factory comes out. It's a brand new car, everything is new here, so does brake pads. I just have no idea how track driving affect brake system or transmission. |
You are good to go as is. There are reports stating the stock brakes get soft on track and you may experience slight fade. Keep this in mind and immediately tell your instructor if you notice soft brake pedal when you apply full pressure. The watch out zone would be at the end of long straight as you are braking from say 130-50mph where brakes generate a lot of heat.
Insurance is not required but is recommended in case you are involved in an accident. It may not be you causing it.
I would still bring spare brake pads or if you decide to put on track pads your stock pads will be your spare.
Try to talk to somebody on here that has tracked stock car.
Feel free to ask more questions.
