A school that is close to you and two of the owners have Z06s. There are always vettes out at their track days. They do a one day program.

I, of course, think Driving School. It's a mod that stays with you no matter what you drive.
For 5K you can attend the Ron Fellows Driving School and still have enough left over for a mod or two.
Or, you might want to bring that wife or GF with you and she can enjoy Vegas, while you enjoy the track.
Mods are great, but I've seen way too many high HP cars where the driver can't take advantage.
As someone else said, it's all about what you are looking for.
Take Care,
Ken

What do you think is missing from the experience? If the answer is nothing at moment, don't be in a hurry to mod the car.
For driving around town, I'd suggest 3.90 gears, MGW shifter, and better tires. Whether at part throttle or full, you'll use these mods regularly. This makes you quicker around town and leaves your engine warranty in tact and creates no emissions testing hassles. Use the remainder of the money for track visits.

If you have never attended a driving school you have no idea what your car is capable of and are under utilizing it.
The only downside is you will become addicted and you will need that kind of presnt twice a year from your wife to go do track days!!!

Also I would spend it all on the interior since thats where you spend your time
You look at the dash all day long so I'd upgrade that 1st w leather or alcantara then the doors & center console

It would be a toss up between driving school and a supercharger. I already have the supercharger....so I think I would go with the driving school.
BUT the real question here is
DOES SHE HAVE A SISTER???
