Dito with cakake. I've only been going three years now to lrrs but my firt mistake was getting all amped tricking out my gsxr 750 only to pitch it after 3 weekends in the bowl and realizing its way too much bike to start with. I am race prepping my 800ss and suspension mods are numero uno priority. And track time. For what its worth different gearing may help in the straights and a lightened flywheel can ad a little power without too much $$$.
