I'm going to the track tommorow and i'm running my 3.4 vs. my buds 3.8 convertable. I bought octane booster and dry ice to cool off the fuel lines and intake. I also removed the spare. Are there any other tips you guys know to help me out? My mods are listed.

Air your tires down to 22 PSI as a start, and go down in air as needed, but not below 18 PSI.
You could remove your air filter, and pull your serpentine belt off for a single run. But your engine better be cool before you make your run (160 to 180) and then shut down quick.
If Autozone sells a belt (you'd have to measure and then see what they have) to bypass your power steering, A/C, and alterntor to limit you down to just your crank and waterpump pulley's. It might be worth buying a small belt for race night.
Octane booster may not do much in of itself. Chances are you would be better off to go with a quarter tank of a race gas like VP (for a street based engine)
