  1. Premium vs Regular gas for track day

    I'm sure there will be some strong opinions on this, but ... Is there any good reason not to run regular gas for track day? That's what I have been running most of the time. I don't care about a little extra HP, and fuel cost for an out-of-town track weekend really adds up. I just don't know...
  2. How do you no-trailer guys handle the logistics of a breakdown at the track?

    If you had a mechanical breakdown or accident at the track and your car is disabled, what do you do? The mind spins over the various issues and challenges, all while feeling stressed about an unfortunate situation: Track facility closing soon Need a ride into town and an extra hotel stay Hire...
  3. Reduced caster effect?

    My mind got to wondering (wandering?) the other day about reducing my caster by the 0.7-degrees provided by my J&M camber plates. Would this increase steering "feel" and decrease understeer? Or is it too small to notice for a 3900# car on track? Seems simple and easy enough to experiment with...

  5. How do you guys deal with the D^MN parking brake spring?

    Would appreciate some posts from others with successful methods. I upgraded my GT brakes to GT350 in September. I had to troubleshoot a noise to the parking brake plate being bent enough to rub against the rotor. I've since needed to replace both rear hubs. So we're talking...

  10. Best grease for emergency brake internal parts?

    I am assembling new emergency brake parts (shoes, springs, adjuster, clips, etc.). See photo. The parts kit came with some white lithium grease. Would brake grease be a better choice to lube the contact points, due to higher temp rating for track use? I expect that the 2-piece rotor will...
  11. My Diff Cooler Build

    I had success on track running without a diff cooler by double-wrapping my exhaust near the differential, and running 140 weight gear oil But I finally got the Axle Overtemp warning at the 32 minute mark during an open track day. So I decided to design a fan-less diff cooler. I worked with the...

  13. Looking for definitive answer on GT vs GT350 Half Shaft differences

    I have searched and placed calls, but I can't quite nail down a couple of specific details on this. Are they the same length? Do they have the same splines (number and length) at the hub end? Is there a Ford GT350 axle and a Ford Performance GT350 axle? Yes, I already know that the GT350 axle...

  16. How to reset mpg after track day?

    I use Trip 1 a lot. I typically reset it at the gas pump. On track I get 5.5mpg. Even though I reset Trip 1 at fill-up after track day, the miles to empty still leans on the low track mpg instead of starting fresh. So I could have a half tank and the car will think I have 50 miles to empty...
  17. Trouble with Android Auto connecting or staying connected

    I am not new to AA, but I feel befuddled about its behavior lately. Usually it performs without problems. When I needed it most for a long convoluted trip today, I couldn't get Google maps or podcasts on the center display. Either AA wouldn't attempt to connect or it wouldn't stay connected...
  18. Best way to run new switched circuit from interior fuse box?

    I need switched, low power, for a new circuit. Interior fuses #22 and #35 show as "Not used (spare)" and have 5A fuses. Does this mean that there is a wire harness coming out of the back of the box at those fuse locations? Is it hard to pull the box out enough to see what's going on at the...
