You hit the nail on the coffin. This was my last upgrade so that I can attend a few track events. I have Eibach camber bolts instead of Camber Mounts for proper alignment, but I should be OK. I really, really hate that I missed this weekend's events. My orignal goal back in February was to have everything done by March 2.
