Default Track handling

Hi everyone just wondered what your thoughts were on standard S12 handling. I know i'm the worst driver in the world but a recent track day left me a bit disapointed.Car didn't really inspire confidence through twisty sections of track and just didnt feel planted to the road. Felt a bit wallowy like i was floating over rather than gripping the road with not enough feel through the steering. Couldn't really chuck it into corners like i wanted to. I could leave caterhams and lotus's elise's on the straight's but couldn't carry any speed through the corners. Is there any cheap mods?. I have allready fitted kyb rear shocks and new bushes all around which helped alot . Would ATF in the front shocks be a good move ?. Are green stuff pads any good brakes were smoking after 20 mins . I dont want an all out racer with a spine shattering ride just something that I can drive with confidence. or maybe I just need more practice and a few lessons
