Post track day care

What is everyone's best way to remove rubber marks from marbles and whatnot from the paint? Especially with a white car? Wd-40 and elbow grease?

As well I've checked all fluids and treads, what are some other things I should check on?

No need to change the oil since it all went through the intake ;-)

I got a bottle in a swag bag. Works great.

Every car that gets used on a road course should be nut and bolted.

Meguiar's #9 takes the rubber right off, can be used while you are washing the car.

Sure.

On my nc miata last year during the autocross season opener, 2 of my header nuts became loose and caused a leak. A couple years before that my turbo mani on my evo had to be tq'd down in between track sessions... i traded that car in shortly afterwards
