Pros and Cons of using RX-8 as a HPDE track car

Zoom Zoom....
Spin, I don't disagree for the sake of disagreeing. Nobody says you have to service anything that you don't want to. I don't think I said 4 jackstands. I would hope that when you 'raising 1st the back end', that you put a couple of jack stands underneath when you take off the wheels. These cars are expensive if dropped....
Anyway, this thread has gone waaaay off topic.

Silver8, not trying to ruffle yours or anyones feathers. Just clarifing as to shaunv74 comment of "you need to do both" clutch & brake when you bleed - you don't - but of course you can - and the clutch is a real pain....with Speed Bleeders, I can do the brakes without getting under the car, just reaching in behind the wheel. Clutch requires significant more prep, jacking, and getting under.
... which brings us back on topic...we were supposed to be suggesting what should be done for track. The clutch is not one of those things IMO. The brakes are. Peace.

I hope that clarifies my position.
