Get an accusump for the oiling issues (some more detailed threads on it elsewhere in these forums); it can transfer to another car when you move to a dedicated track build. Even this may be overkill, but it would have been on my short list if I stuck with the 228 (that and upgraded cooling, esp my auto trans). You are right about running stock tires for another reason - you learn much better with worse tires, and make your mistakes at a lot less speed and more time to catch them. Most of the pro level advice I've gotten is to either run stock, or perhaps even more durable but less grippy summer tires until I really get a feel for catching slides. I found the Potenza s007 to be a good street track combo, with much stiffer carcass that didn't eat outer edges as badly; I have no camber correction (That was atop the short list, probably pays for itself with the first set of tires).
