Hows the AERO? I think I need to put that on my list of things to do? The faster I get the less stable the car gets at speed.

No idea on track times, i havent gotten a track data keeper yet but i will soon. It was my first track day so i was really focusing on how my setup is performing, tuning, and limitations of the car. as far as aero, i could definitely use more rear downforce for tracks like road atl (higher speed tracks) but what i have does do a pretty sufficient job for my current level. Talk to SOCK if anyone is interested in my front/rear aero setup. Overall with stock brakes and tires i was very impressed with how the car performed..cant wait to see the improvement when i throw some race spec tires on her though.

1st track day or 1st track day in the mustang? Aero really helps with turn 12 and turn 1, but can have a significant reduction in top speed on the rear straight. I'd be curious how much drag the Nascar style spoiler creates on the back straight.

Love the excitement! That's look perfectly describes how I feel after all the stresses of life and thrash to get ready for the track... and then you finally get to go out for that first session and do your thing. Total zen moment.

As for the tsk tsk... Session is over and you are on a cool down lap, not a big deal.

Thanks much!

As for good driving pictures, this might be one worth considering. I ground some dentin on this turn :D

Edit: I believe I was thinking I had

just gotten on the throttle too much
in order to avoid
going off the track
because
found a bit too hot into turn 4
