^ This.

Get the car up on stands, take the wheels off, see how it's put together. Understand it, learn it, feel it, breath it, absorb it, look at cobra-related publications and books, go to SAAC events or local shows, in general, just become totally one with the car to gain your baseline. From there, you will be familiar enough with the car's "short comings" if any and devise an improvement plan.......and if budget permits, Avon tires. (sometimes the best answers are the least verbose)

Most importantly, enjoy the journey!
