Garage List
This is solid advice. Solid.

- Get some high temp pads and fluid, and thoroughly bleed the system.
- Check all fluids
- Torque all lug nuts to 89 ft/lbs
- Begin with tire pressure a little less than you would use on street

Then, start slowly and ease into it. It's way easier than starting hot and having to dial back.

Remember, any monkey can press the loud pedal. It takes talent to turn. And more to brake.

Stay safe and have a blast!

Nothing else is needed until you get a little more experience and pick up the pace to the point you start killing tires.
