If you do sign up for a full HPDE event, all you need is a helmet that meets or exceeds SA2015 requirements and a car that is in good shape. You don't need special brake pads, racing tires, 6-point harnesses, etc. Like others have said, don't overthink it. The usual feedback I get from most new drivers is "why did I wait so long to try HPDE".

Totally agree. All you need to start is a safe car and a good attitude. A 911 in stock form exceeds the capabilities of most drivers.
