Just replace the suspension and go Biju.

That is a very vague question,buddy.

There have been cars that range from sporty to SUVS that have done track days. And there have been drivers with no idea of racing line to 'raced formula cars abroad' at track days.

[KRRaj]

So Anyone making it from Bangalore so that I can tag along?

We were all drivers who had no idea of a Racing Line [atleast my friend and me ] when we entered the track for the first time. What we did was OBSERVE, LEARN and FOLLOW instructions implicitly!
