Need seasonal advice

Took the old girl the other day, but I got the feeling the clutch is slipping and she sputterd above 7000rpm.
What oil, tires and main jets would you suggest to solve my problems?

I'd suggest tires with a bit more traction.
 
Just leave the right turns alone.

Pull the main jets and let it suck as much gas as it wants. It will go like the wind out of my A!!
