Oil Change - Track Day
I was kind of leaning towards doing it before.
I'm swapping brake fluid this Friday and putting on the race pads next Friday...well might just do it all this Friday. The long range forecast shows rain almost every day until track day so I won't be driving it anyway. Just need to take it out one day to bed the brakes properly. So far no rain for the track weekend (it's actually two days the 13th and 14th) is expected.

I would change before and after just for safe measure. Full fluid change before as well.
I've got an auto-x event goin on (small local deal) this weekend and i just changed my oil last weekend. I might have younger new tires after because I'm already running low on tread on the rear /:

On my car, the oil life monitor seems to be set for something north of 9,000 miles. If your car is similar - you might be 8,000 miles since your last change?
Are you using a full synthetic?
Even with great oil and a huge sump, that's a lot of miles - track day or not. I'm a little old school, 3-5k.
