Don't see any tires in your sig. Next to a power adder they are the best bang for buck. You can pick up a set of rims and tires and use them only at the track. -Mark

A lightweight set of 15 or 16" rims with MT ETStreets will work wonders without destroying the 10bolt.
I can't imagine those 18" rebels are helping your ETs much.

Did you install LCA relocation brackets to correct geometry after you lowered that car?
And did you have it aligned?

Otherwise,
Have a fresh 1/4 tank of gas
Remove any heavy items you don't need at the track (spare tire, subs, tools, front swaybar)
Clean air filter and recent oil change are a good idea.
And make sure that lug nuts are tight.

If you don't have one already, install a DS safety loop.

Avoid the waterbox with street tires and have fun
