    As said get tyres after the event. When I did it I bolted on my original wheels with some old Michelin Primacy on. Less grip = more learning at the end of the day You will learn a lot. I insure my car for trackdays but don't when I go there. Only one car on the move at a time and you would be hard pushed to find something to hit

    1. Insurance is not needed as unlike track days, you are all alone driving it. Cant give away everything but rest assured I was like you before, safe than sorry. 2. Tyres- Primacy 3 is technically the replacement for HP, so not hugely different, just a bit better. When you have a tyre go ( puncture/ sidewall) and have no spare wheel in boot, such choices need to be made based on instant availability in that tyre shop/ roadside assistance. Good news that across the axle your tyres have same wear as with an LSD it is particularly key for the rears. Overinflate tyres to 45 psi when there to not damage your sidewalls and you will lose about 1.5 mm tread on the day. Definitely don't go with brand new tyres. Hope this helps.

    Air-Con

    They only check the pipework normally. Ifthe leak is integral to the compressor, they won't find it very easy. If you run your air con at least once a month for 30mins, you should be fine. Otherwise the oring seals dry up in the compressor and leak. The gas works as a lubricant.

    As the guys have said pointless changing tyres before. I waited until after to treat myself. I was also worried about insurances I couldn’t source any. Again the worst you can do if spin around or hit a cone. Mine is in warranty so any engine problems just take back to dealership 👍🏼. Have fun

    To be clear, it's not just tread wear. You can get lots of little tears in the surface of the tyre from spinning out, and it would be a shame to do it to new tyres. The only obstacles to hit are plastic cones and your ego.

    Dont change tyres before Carlimits day. Its quite hard on tyres, you can consider whether you need new ones after the day. Sent from my SM-G973F using Tapatalk
