No worries mate^^
No tags needed to run on the track, it only two screws.
They have "track only" insurance that will cover any on track issues.
You have to be smart, savvy and just use your melon when it comes to using your DD at track events. Get extra insurance, medical, prep the car and have fun. Its easy.

HEY!!! I'm going to the July 31st one on buttonwillow. that day there will be a white group(beginner), so you can learn the track and see what is tracking looks like. I will be running Black group, so if you are going, you can ride with me for few laps and learn the line and stuff.
let me know if you are going

All: If you get really serious about tracking more than once or twice a year, you should really invest in a 5 point harness. To a lesser degree, you might also look into adapting something like the Rally Series to work with a Lex. as it would be far less intrusive.
Driving your car secured to your seat is big advantage over wrenching yourself in place with your arms and legs. You actually get to relax your death grip on the wheel and seriously feel the car for the first time.
ISFSPORT10, Hard to imagine frying the brakes on an S5, but then, its hard for me to imagine even owning an S5
... I'd have wet dreams even thinking about running that one around a track for sure

You should get in touch with Porterfield and see if they can make you a set of their R-4 Carbon Kevlar race compounds... Absolutely sweet stopping power, even on glowing rotors!

Yeah didnt think that would happen. They were absolutely fried after one day. Im so happy to have these brakes on the new car just need a set of race pads. Also really debating whether or not I want to do another day on the PS2's I know I need a better alignment but I just dont want to fry these tires after 3k miles

Personally I'd never own a set of coil-overs without owning corner scales, or at the least having regular access to them. I'd corner balance every time I touch the height adjustment, just because it is the right thing to do...
I doubt you will get any skilled suspension specialist to tell you any different.
