I see alot of activity here with road course and autocross racing. I wanted to know what you guys think about my set up and if I should try to hit an event before the off season or if I should wait it out and spend some more money.
03 350z touring
-NA set up, H/I/E, Pulleys, dyno tuned to 269/249
-Wilwood 6 piston 14' rotor front, 4 piston 13' rotor rear
-Stillen sway bars
-18x9.5 rims with 245/40 F and 275/40 R Falken FK452's (I want to go to Bridgestone RE760's with 255's up front)
My plan during the off season is to finish suspension.
I have never done an event but I have been wanting to for years, and I feel like my car is getting really close to me feeling comfortable doing one without wrecking!

Both are very active clubs, with monthly events. Strange enough, the Austin club runs their events in SA at the SA Raceway.
As far as road courses, the closest to you maybe in San Marcos, just south of Austin. It is called Harris Hill Road (H2R):

As far as my recommendation, hold off on anymore mods until you learn more about yourself & your Z. There is no substitute for more seat time. And then you make adjustments once you learn what your baseline is and where you need to improve yourself & your Z (handling, etc.).
