  1. Official 2020 Shelby GT500 Mustang Press Release, Specifications, Photos & Videos

    Regarding the dial comments. Our 2019 Explorer Sport has it. I believe the GT also and a few other models. It is functional but took a bit of getting used to by us after we sold our 2015 Mustang GT/PP. More than enough power. I understand all of the various reasons why some want more power...
  2. BmacIL's Guard GT Build

    Looks great Bmac! I'll have to go back and re-read some of your updates.
  3. Confirmed: Mustang GT PP2 Overheats in 3 laps on track

    The PP1 - at least the 2015 package, is actually a great car. Even with Recaro's. We have taken ours from Northern California to Las Vegas to LA and back a couple times and the car is just super awesome sauce. Spirited drives through the Mojave no problems. Based on how the car handles now I...
  4. Confirmed: Mustang GT PP2 Overheats in 3 laps on track

    Could be the case. Still not sure about A then B but that could just be my hang up. But yes, they buy them and sit in the garage. Although I will say one lad I worked for at a start up, the owner, had a garage full of cars. About 7 different supercars but his F40 stands out the most...
  5. Confirmed: Mustang GT PP2 Overheats in 3 laps on track

    Sort of reminds me of the F4 Phantom. People often wonder how that big ugly plane was able to fly let alone fly so fast. It is a flying brick. How it flew? Power of the engine(s). Reminds me a lot of Gm with the various cars and even the Mopar cars. Only way to go fast is increase the...
  6. Confirmed: Mustang GT PP2 Overheats in 3 laps on track

    Let me ask you a question - how many people will cancel their order for a Ford GT over that article? I'll answer it for you, zero. Furthermore, 90% of the owners of said GT won't even track it. They are in for collecting and resale or to look cool and be young. I'm not saying you are right...
  7. Confirmed: Mustang GT PP2 Overheats in 3 laps on track

    I was really only talking about the ZR1 and GT. I personally don't get caught up in all of the lower abdominal area waving that goes on with lap times. I'm not looking for variables - I am looking for actual people, who are track oriented, who bought the PP2 package, and track their car...
  8. Confirmed: Mustang GT PP2 Overheats in 3 laps on track

    Problem with this statement is that the GT will resale for over 1 million while the ZR does not. Money aside, and no dog in this fight, does it really matter? Most people buying either of these will never track them. And if they do I doubt at the skill level to push the envelope or lap times...
  9. 2019 GT500 Mustang New Spy Video, Pics, Info

    That was such a horrible race. If NASCAR isn't already dead yesterday's race sealed it.
  10. 2019 GT500 Mustang New Spy Video, Pics, Info

    Yeah - read a few articles after I posted. Also thanks for yours. Still not sure I would get too caught up in it. Super charged v8 is going to be heavy. I've driven my brother in laws V8, my nephew has the same truck with the v6 turbo. Turbo is actually better - just a mind set. Don't get...
  11. 2019 GT500 Mustang New Spy Video, Pics, Info

    What makes you think it will upstage the Raptor? I don't own one let alone a Dodge pickup but after test driving a Raptor I couldn't see that happening. Speculation of course because the latter isn't available but tell you what. Had the dealer been willing to drop the 20k ADM on the Raptor I...
  12. 2019 GT500 Mustang New Spy Video, Pics, Info

    It is a good time to be a sports car fan in general. It doesn't matter what brand you end up with you have choices. Waiting for the GT500 isn't a bad thing. If it wasn't for the success of the Mustang both the Camaro and various Challengers wouldn't exist. I mean Mopar didn't bring anything...
  13. Firehawk Indy 500 tires

    That was my source - on a Sunday no doubt.
  14. Firehawk Indy 500 tires

    Firehawks are what I replaced the stock tires on at 21,000 or so miles on my 2015 GT/PP. I'm at around 29,000 or so miles now and the Firehawks are holding up well. Heavy rain, excessive cold in the mornings, or 100+ degree weather here in Northern California and they are great daily driving...
  15. What did you do to your S550 Mustang today?!

    Lol! That is not nice!
  16. Widest squared setup I can run and stay flush/not poke

    Totally unrelated but wanted to say thanks to a couple of you lads MtnBiker, BmacIL, ApexRaceParts for some of this information. I was just cruising the forums reading random posts over a couple cups of coffee and really appreciate the information on the studs, spacer, and how they work...
  17. BmacIL's Guard GT Build

    Funny thing is yours sounded better :) Then again I've honestly not had a chance to drive my car much lately. New project at work a few months back and I've been traveling non stop since February. Back and forth across the Atlantic gets old and when I am home I was pretty much worthless...
  18. Road trip!!

    Funny you should mention that. You are correct - hard to get out of the scene if you will but also very possible when you are at 10,000 feet in a Raptor running the Coyote Flats trail in California! I was at the dealer with my son when he was picking up a new focus he ordered. They had a...
  19. Road trip!!

    2015 Mustang GT/PP road trip. Sacramento->Las Vegas->LA (Disneyland)->Sacramento: 1,225 miles give or take. Never felt tired driving, no tickets, pretty much uneventful regardless time of day or night driving. Few spirited runs while passing through parts of the Mohave but also nothing stupid...
  20. BmacIL's Guard GT Build

    Just finished getting caught up but wanted to say nice sound and run you shared there. Then again I'm sure you could have been driving a Yugo and still pulled that off :)
