How to setup car for Track Day starts around 40 seconds

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJcqKjPV-c8

by customspraymods

Must watch if your taking your car to the track. Taking my car out on a race track really made me love my car even more. Not only is it a daily driver, a family car it can run a track day with no problems FAST. Thanks to Adam Pike for helping with camera work More info from a fellow Subaru owner and a track day enthusiast. Great info but I'd recommend a few extra things.

Two piece vented rotors from performance friction, Join the nsw wrx club with Luke and learn some faster lines and learn slow in fast out of corners. You will drop seconds straight up. Don't do full 20 minute sessions on close to stock or semi racing pads they fall apart when over heated.

Racing brake fluid will reduce brake fade. Full racing pads will last better. At least do a couple of cool down laps in each session. Keep your number plates on and take you helmet off and go for a 2km drive down the road to cool every thing off a little before parking. Have fun.

Prep your car for the track
less about track prepping and more like proper maintenance.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8mDGFHBWfk

Diff/trans/engine fluids always need to be changed, not just if you go to the track, just more so if you track your car. And brake fluid only really needs to be changed once every two years if you're using an OEM type brake fluid. The motul last about 1 year. This is because all brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it pulls moisture from the air and will lower the boiling point of the brake fluid as it accumulates more water.

If you are serious, you might skip this first one and go straight to second one.

Also something to note around Mighty Car Mods: we are normal guys and are not trained mechanics. We like to make interesting car mods and show you how we've gone about it, but we can't promise that anything we show you will work for your particular car, or that you won't harm yourself, someone else, your car or your warranty doing it. Please be safe, be responsible and unless you know what you're doing, do not fool around with very serious machinery just because you've seen us make it look so easy. Talk to a qualified mechanic if you are in any doubt. This video is intended as Entertainment only.

How to become an advanced driver

We are at VIR (Virginia International Raceway) for the David Murry Track Day. This video is glimpse behind the scenes from one of the most exciting advance day driving events in the country. I waited almost 3 years to get to this stage of driving and it was well worth the effort. Take a look and hope you can join us at the next event. Thanks for watching!

How to become a racing driver We visit Nissan's NISMO Lab with karting ace Kiern Jewiss and Nissan GT Academy star Jann Mardenborough to learn the ropes What does it take to become a racing driver? Is it pure intuition? Is it a mixture of dedication, attitude and perception? Or does practice simply make perfect? To find out, we meet 14-year-old karting ace Kiern Jewiss at Nissan’s NISMO Lab test facility at Silverstone, Northants. Joining us is GT Academy star Jann Mardenborough, whose unconventional path to motor racing (from computer games) offers a different perspective to many of today’s top drivers.
