Remove spare wheel and rear & passenger seats!

Tyre pressures. You want more at the rear to loosen it up a little if it's a short track

If you can get access to alignment gear, get as much negative camber on the front as the slotted holes on the wishbones allow.

Seats are already out, I have no spare either,

Il try the camber as a mate has all the gear at his garage, This is the track, VERY short and twsity http://www.curborough.co.uk/

Recommend Llandow to your club members.
Had my first track day there, and aside from my brakes failing it was awesome.

Theres the view of a few laps.
As for handling... Anti Roll bars, I got both mine for £150 on ebay.

As above, tyre pressure is key no matter what the budget.
Keep an eye on these during the day, no more than 35 psi at the front and play with the rear ones to keep it lively.
A brake rebleed will allow your day to be more fun and last longer.
Check all liquids and levels. Check wheel bolts tight, no wheels = bad handling, LOL
Also try and minimise the amount of fuel you have in the car, take a jerry can if you have access to one. Lighten everything else you can too. Remove passengers seat too.
If you have not a CG lock or harness try moving you seat back a couple of clicks, pull your seat belt hard to lock it then move seat into position to allow the seat belt to firmly hold you in place.
