Default What to do next???

Looking for some advice on which to do next.
I have an 01' Camaro LS3 swapped, full bolt ons and the engine has a GM hot cam in it 219/228. Car sees the track maybe three times a year and gets like 17k miles per year.

Basically I have about $2500 to spend on my car. Looking to either:
1. Get a custom grounded cam either 231/236 or 228/240
2. Get an s60 rear.

I still have the stock 10 bolt. Hot cam made 427hp/427tq on a mustang awd dyno. I know this engine has a lot more in it, but am a little worried about the 10 bolt. If I put the bigger cam in, I will probably not run it at the track with slicks

With a 12.1 at 122 you need suspension! With a trap of 122 you should be just barely out of the tens!
