Make sure to turn off the VDC if you are going to try and show off by burning out in front of friends.

You know what, this might be a really good thread. Why don't people keep posting tips? we might all be able to benefit from some info.
Here's one more: Don't pull on the gas filler cap too hard since the clip that attaches to the car is pretty weak and you might bend it open. Mine is kinda weak now |

Correction on Tip number 5 you do want to spin the tires a bit even if they are street tires to clean them off, however we are talking a 2-5 second burn out not even enough to create smoke! If you do use the water box, BACK INTO IT if you drive through it with street tires on the front they can some times retain drops of water which will be dropped in front of your back wheels while launching and going down the track!

For new owners: check your tire pressure after picking up your new car from the dealer, it probably is too high. (set high for transport from Japan, dealers tend to forget to adjust it to the right level)

When you get your windows tinted then minimize the number of times you open the doors the first 24hrs. Since the window rolls down about half an inch when you open the door then that's enough to snag the bottom edge of the film if it hasn't dried on the glass yet. This happened to me
