1) Improve the driver. If you don't have any experience, you could be driving a 911 GT3 and I'd still beat you in a stock S2000.

2) Improve the driver. (No, that's not a mistake to list it twice.)

3) R-compound tires.

4) Suspension.

5) Weight reduction, aero bits, and power adders.

Saw an NSX in my session and I thought I was gonna get to have fun but the driver was so-so and I was let down

Although Tires and Suspension is probably the best things to get if you dont wanna do F/I.

... and possibly final drives.
