Should I get a new radiator before the 5th July track day?

[f-llewellyn]

Hi guys. I’ve booked on to the track day for the 5th July at Blyton Park and I’m planning my prep for it.

My service interval is due soon so that’s getting done. I’m also looking at getting some roddison’s pads.

I also gave my radiator a onceover what with it being 20 years old, and I noticed some spidering stress lines on it. Do you guys think it’s worth replacing?

Also any other prep anyone can think of while I’m planning it out?

Cheers.

I do fairly regular track days all bit it not in my MX-5. If I have any doubts about anything on my car before a track day I change it. For 2 reasons. 1. A track day will naturally put a LOT more strain on your car than normal road use . 2. If a part was to fail, potentially it would ruin my track day and the money I spent on it would of been wasted.
