I really don't notice the tires much. I do know they stick well. Think it's part of my driving style, and what I'm comfortable with. I do have the TPMS installed in the tires.

The Robispec mounts the same way the factory crossbar mounts. It's a lot stronger then the factory bar. Zero trouble with it. I don't have a harness mounted yet. Want to do that when I get seats.

Brakes. I still have the YellowStuff pads installed. I'll change those out early next spring. Want to put some street miles on them before the change. Thinking 10's in the front and 8's in the rear. The Racing Brake rotors have been great. With the cold air brake ducts, 2 piece rotors, stainless brake lines, and Motul 600 brake fluid. No mods needed to the ABS. For better stopping. I would need stronger brake calipers. Brembo or APRacing.

What I'm running into now is the traction control and Yaw sensor. With the traction control turned off. I can still feel it at times. The Yaw sensor has tried the straighten the car up a time or 4 by applying a brake or 2 in a turn. Turn 7 at Pittsburgh International is a right hand turn that runs down hill off camber. When the Yaw sensor kicks in on that turn. It scared the crap out of me the first couple of times. Had an instructor in the car, about ready to hit me. Said that I hit the brakes in that turn. Had to show him on my GoPro that I didn't.
Damn thats intense.Is there anything (that you know of) that can be done to disable the yaw sensor or its response?

And in you personal opinion, what would you recommend doing first to the car to make it better for the track. I personally was thinking of doing simply safety (harness bar, seats, 6 pt harness) then stopping (breaks, pads,) and lastly performance. What do you think?
