I would suggest you contact Phil and/or Tony Mandella at PMR Race Cars to get acquainted and let them know about your program. There is nobody on the planet with more experience and knowledge that would be helpful to you.
If you are not their customer you might offer a fee for the day. I guarantee you that one day at the track with Phil would equate to many, many days of trial and error even with a helper at your side. I know they will be at Fontana next week as we will be testing our Super Stocker and they will be supervising every aspect of the session. You can reach Phil or Tony at (909) 941-7800.
Once again, please forgive me if I assumed incorrectly but this is good advice for even the most experienced race teams.

Taking a car out with that kind of speed makes this great advice. Can turn a potentially very frustrating experience into one that will pay dividends for the remainder of your racing career.
