First off:
Kudos to you for taking your car to the track. That is why I am building mine.
2nd:
I need info on the car-
What suspension are you running? How was the hydroboost? What pads on the brakes? What wheel/tire combo, and tire brand?
Details!!!!

Thanks!
Front suspesion:
Global West tubular lower A-Arms with del-a-lum bushings designed for coil over shocks.
Pole Position Racing adjustable upper A-Arms
QA-1 double adjustable coil overs with 450lb progressive rate springs. (need to go with a stiffer constant rate spring)
Caprice B-Body "tall" spindles.
Original 7/8" sway bar.
Rear suspension:
Factory boxed lower control arms.
Edelbrock adjustable upper control arms.
2" drop O.P.G.I. coil springs.
QA-1 Stocker Star adjustable shocks.
No sway bar.
Wilwood PolyMatrix "E" compound pads on the front. Not sure about the rears but they're not a real high performance pad.
The hydroboost is awesome! Worked flawlessly. I had more brake than I could use. The one time I felt the brakes lock up I was able to quickly back out of it and recover. I think the pedal feel is excellent. But I'm a novice.
ZR-1 polished replica wheels, 17 x 9.5 front, 17 x 11 rear. Sumitomo HTRZ rubber, 275/40 front, 315/35 rear.
