Speed Secrets: Preparing for a Season of HPDE

This week's Speed Secrets has an excellent overview of prepping for the HPDE season. It covers many topics:

• Budget Planning
• Event Planning
• Continual Learning
• Self Coaching

Each section of this is full of sage advice and provides solid checklists for thinking through what you're doing or should be doing:

• HANS, or HANS Hybrid
• Helmets & Race Suits
• Summer or Race Tires
• Seats & Belts
• Tire Temps
• Brake Upgrades
• Suspension Tuning & Upgrades
• Weight & Balance
• Data Collection Systems & Analytics

These checklists are especially useful for those new to HPDE, but also serve as a reminder for the Nth thing experienced drivers often forget. For the full text of this article, and more regular Speed Secrets content, check out their website here.
