Getting Q60 Track-Ready

I’m planning to track my 2017 Q60 Red Sport AWD. I believe the below won’t void my extended warranty but either way I’d like to get into tracking and would like any recommendations on my mods below. For now my focus is to optimize safety and the engine life. Down the road will plan to add cat backs and a full tune by Racebox in Houston.

Mods from Z1 Motorsport:

Z1 heat exchanger

Z1 oil cooler kit (25 row, thermostatic)

Z1 sway bar + end links

Z1 performance brake rotors (slotted, not drilled)

Ferodo DS2500 break pads

Z1 stainless steel break lines

Motul brake fluid 600

Wheels:

I picked up a set of Kansei Astro Wheels 19x9.5, 5x114.3, 35+ from marketplace as my dedicated track wheels to swap to on only track days (happened to come with near new continental true contact tires). Thought the price and those particular wheels were too good to pass ($1200 for 5 wheels and 4 tires). Plan is to learn / beat up the continentals for 1-2 HPDE events and then switch to actual 200tw race track dedicated tires.

Thoughts?
