I have a 2016 GT with Whipple around 725 RWHP. I have done a few suspension elements but not many. Steeda Progressive springs, BMR CB005 lock out and steeda differential bushings. That's about it..................... however this year I want to track the car a little more so looking at sorting out the wallow and of course making more use of the power available.
Some say coilovers and others say stiffen the car a little as coilovers on their own are not going to make a difference. I dont have a budget to do everything (say $1200-1500) so what would be the next step ? Thoughts welcome

Sell the Whipple in favor of coilovers and a better wheel and tire combo. ;)

Please explain. Track = road course. Strip = drag strip.
I live near Silverstone F1 track, which is the planned venue - so think that type of track not the straight line

IMO you should be focusing on upgrading the cooling and braking right now, especially if you don't have the Performance Package.

Have you done anything to those or are they bone stock?
