hi m8
i hve a 95 import 260 too

im want to do a few track days myself as ive never done anything like it before.

my first time though im gonna take it easy and try to learn how to drive round a track first as i dont want to wrap it round a tree.

i want to go down from 18's to 17's first much better on standard motor, tyre pressures id run just normal 32 psi or whatever you use.

if its standard car i wouldnt run it round a track constantly all day unless you have an uprated oil cooler at least. like wise with the oil

You'll probably find your brakes will go first if standard. Its pretty scary when the fluid decides its had enough coming up to a corner after a long straight.

I put in Comma dot 5.1 when upgrading the brakes. It certainly does the job.

Before looking at anyway to go faster, definitely sort out the stopping first.
