Looks like your damn near on the bump stops with that "ghetto drop" when taking the corners.
Were aftermarket lowering springs installed or did the previous owner just cut the stock springs?

If this is a dedicated track car you may want to look into an A/C delete and underdrive pulley for your alternator.

Wheel bearings still in good shape?

A quick release undertray would help smooth out airflow under your car as it looks pretty rough under there. That would improve aero drag and help both with MPG's and on the track.

Whats speeds you hitting in the straits? Only asking cause I've seen other peoples vids from that track and almost everyone looks slow on the strait after that tight corner.
