Thanks for everyone's input. The dilemma for me now is whether to spend $2k+ for AP2 wheels, R compounds and an adjustable sway bar OR get new OEM front tires, an alignment and more track days. 
I'm starting to lean towards the latter, but I'll make a decision by Thursday.

and made up. That's when learning began and I was no longer a terrible tracker. When a driver thinks they know everything, no learning can take place. I didn't say I was a great driver in the 3rd session, just that I improved markedly. 
Signed off solo after the 4th session.

Another exercise motorcycle riding classes do is to ride around the course without using brakes. I'm thinking of trying that out if I can next time.
