the better handling setup you have means you will be more in control and therfore less likely to crash

if you are serious on making a track car you will need to spend around a grand on suspension, not worth it otherwise

coilovers, max bump/rebound rate at the front lowered 80mm with 300lb by 8" springs

on the rear 175lb by 9" springs with mid harness setting lowered 80mm

also go for a strut brace front and rear, roll cage helps with cornering too
