Wash day for me. I also get to fill more rock chips after the car is dry.

I also followed up on my Solo Perf Mach XV order earlier in the week. Should get here in the next week or so.

Washed it, changed transmission fluid (went with the Motorcraft spec from the book), and then discovered a f***ing screw in my left front tire. Hopefully the old tire continues to hold air until the replacement arrives or else I'll be driving around on one winter tire with a mismatched wheel.

Installed Energy suspension rear trans mount and rear shifter mount.
Should have taken a picture for [MENTION=27640]bjstang[/MENTION] since they are race red.......
Nice firm improvement, not the NVH shitshow some have reported.

Then installed a Steeda 2 point frame brace and changed the oil.
While I was in there, checked the plugs. Gaps were good, but found a cracked insulator on plug3. Runs perfectly with my glue fix, New plugs coming monday.

First wash of the year. It's still not as clean as I'd like, but at least I'm not embarrassed to be seen driving around in it.

Yesterday, FINALLY installed the GT brakes front and rear on my car. The difference in braking is pretty ridiculous actually.

From a customer ... sharing what he did with his S550!

I finally had a chance to try the handling of the comfort suspension package and it put a big grin on my face. I was handling 35 MPH corners at 60 MPH. It felt connected to the road, with no lean, and not feeling I was approaching the grip limit. I did get very lucky though. I caught up to a truck that was doing the speed limit and about a 1/2 mile later, there was a cop sitting on the side of the road, waiting for speeders. I will say this is the best improvement I have added to my Mustang.

I meet Anne Judge, the trainer and rider of Thunder who is the Denver Broncos' animal mascot, and just had to have her pose with my 2017 Ford Ecoboost Mustang. Even though I am not a Broncos fan per say.

She was wearing the Broncos Super Bowl ring from 2015, too.

Today, I ordered my Blowfish Racing Shifter Support Bracket from CJ Pony Parts. I'm hoping, along with the Synchro Shift II I changed out a few weeks ago, that it'll be a a noted improvement in shifting.

Now, I need a few months to rebuild the mod-bank and will start in earnest on the suspension with Steeda, who I still owe a call to when I missed it last week. And, that'll give me time to get the tools I'll need to do the job, too.

Just ordered an MMD matte black deck lid panel so I can lose the glossy scratch and dust prone factory piece.
