It really depends on who is the racing group. Some are very picky, some are not. In general, for a DE as long as the car is street legal and well-maintained, it should be fine. Alu lug nuts are fine for a DE (well, maybe some PCA regions might not like it). Steering and brakes are the big ones, oil fresh and full (just over 1/2).

Your tires concern me a bit. If you are just learning, and the speed rating is proper, then it's probably okay. Go into your garage and look at the speed ratings...

Have your shop check wheel bearings for play, CV boots and bolts, throttle return spring, and steering play. Make sure the aligment shop has done Porsches.

Have Fun!
