The stock V6 should do fine. Just make sure you have fresh brake fliud with no air in the lines (and consider upgrading to a higher temp fluid if you're flushing it anyway), check and make sure you have at least half of your brake pads left and that your tires are in good condition with plenty of tread.

Novice track drivers almost never push the car anywhere close to how hard you can really drive it, usually the self-preservation instinct kicks in long before you're exhausting the limits of the stock car.
Great advice! :cheers:A stock car works fine. Learning to drive to the limits of your car is what road courses are all about.
For seldom track use & stock for stock, would you prefer a 2014 V6 with the Performance Package or 2015 V6 without it?

If he gets the itch he will replace everything anyway. I have one word to say: Independent rear suspension!
Since I’m not the first he will also replace the brakes and hint: they will not be Brembos. Also the bushing but if he goes all out the car will be undrivable on the street.
Yeah, wider wheels/tires, brakes & suspension seem to be the general consensus. It's a shame there isn't a strut bar made for it.I've tracked at AAA Fontana Speedway ROVAL and what stood out to upgrade was stiffer suspension, upgraded brakes and some wider tires to help put down the power. You can really feel the stock suspension limitations on this track.
