Also check to see what their safety inspections call for.

Some require a 'broomstick' type test. (Sit in the car with your helmet on. Your helmet should be below a straight edge from the top of your rollbar to the top of your windshield.)

You might want to try to find a large vacant parking lot and try some circles and figure 8's to see if your car understeers or oversteers. Slide it around a bit to get used to the feeling.

Tires have been mentioned. They make a huge difference. What tires do you have on it now?
