Just to add my .02, I regularly track my car, as stated in a few threads i've posted recently, and my Advan Sport tires are plenty sticky/wide for track use. The VLSD the SP comes with is garbage, so if you bought the SP to track it, you'll be replacing it with a gear type anyways once you figure out that a viscous LSD overheats and converts itself to an open diff after a hot lap. If you get the SP, the only option I think thats worth a shyt is the SRM, everything else is aesthetic. And just to add, the SP rims are nice yes, but also create more rotational mass and add weight. I'd like to see a base 7AT against a SP 7AT at the drag strip with the same driver and conditions, i'd bet the base has a faster 0-60 and 1/4 mile time.
