LOL... You're scaring me.

RJ's right that your money's probably better spent on driving schools than making changes before you know what you're doing; however, you seem determined and/or somebody's already messed with the car.

(1)Your price on the Spoon suspension is a good one. I'd be tempted, but please remember that the Spoon suspension is a part of an overall racing package, and you're not buying the whole package. After you do a few schools, you're going to know what we mean about wanting to make other changes. If you know you'll probably want to spend more money fairly soon and you can handle that, go ahead.

(2)Think about looking for some OEM ITR springs and Bilsteins or Koni Yellows, or KYB's even. RJ is right, you can have a hell of a lot of fun learning a stock ITR before you really feel the need to make changes. If you're a newer driver, there's more to fix in your head than there is to fix in the car.

(3)Personally, I have revalved Koni Yellows and Ground Control springs, 400# front and 500# rear. This has served me well for a while, and only toward the end of last season was I beginning to think I was going to move the 500's to the front and get heavier springs in the rear. Since the rebuild is so late, however, I'll probably go another season w/these. LOL... But keep your eyes open for blue tyre smoke in Rollercoaster.
