Get in some track time on yours before you think of racing anybody.Get familiar with your car and how it reacts with some sticky tires.

Too little air may cause the rear end to wiggle on a hard gear change and they can get squirrelly on the top end.

Have yours on a chassis dyno to see what you have and how you can improve it.

It may well turn out to be a drivers race.I would much rather be the one who can drive.Practice.........
