The last time I drove in sport mode with the TC disengaged, I purposefully did an easy slide around a turn with a little fish tail afterwards. 3/4 of the way through, advance Trac kicked in and I had to quickly adjust what I was doing. I now drive in track mode for casual driving. It may sound...

One of these days, I'll actually make good on my word. Probably.

I agree, I do like the contrast of the black and white... But it feels overplayed. Kind of like black rims. So that's what I was looking at doing, just enough to make it a little more different than every other white stang out there. But I'm not brave enough to go with another color for...

Been really thinking lately about doing a "white out" on the back end, both the back part of the trunk and the brake light housing, leaving the brake lights smoked. But then when I see my car, I'm quite content with how it looks - so I'll probably hold off on that visual mod till I feel like I'm...

Looks good man, did you run the 305s all around or just in the back? Also, need to meet up one of these days, stretch the legs...

Well, ain't that peachy?

Yesterday, due to life events, had to drive the mustang for work (130 miles total) and while it's fun, hate racking up the miles like that plus the anxiety of trying to work and rowing the gears during normal driving. Anyways, headed home and went through the mountains, having fun being...

Had my car since March of this year, was modified when I bought it and had spent quite a bit of time trying to figure out all that had been done to it. Anyways, a while ago, I learned about the owners manual "secret compartment" (probably from this thread) and sure enough, manual was there! Was...

Not making fun of you but that's the exact reason why I'm hesitant about dropping the ride height of my car, curbs. So many times where I thought I have given enough room only to see that my chin is over top... Apparently, my depth perception is becoming questionable with age.

Perfect, the answers I was hoping for. Thx gents.

Wanting to go with LTH in the next year for the potential performance gain and easy of breathing. Most primary's are 1 7/8" but there are options for 2" as well. If I'm just staying conservative with boost and hp, is there a real world difference between the two primary sizes? Car has a Whipple.

Best compliment I've received on the car was a silent one. Moved into a house about a year ago, a neighbor across the street and a few houses down is a bunch of younger guys with their own rides, always wrenching on things and friendly (never officially met, just the hand waves as drive by). The...

Solid perspective and agreeable with what you said. I live in a smaller area with limited options, went to the place with the most experience and best reputation. But as you stated, if vehicle is modified, there is a high likelihood that the common daily driver vehicle doesn't correlate with the...

So the 1/16 toe out on both is a larger contributing factor than the camber? That's good info to know but also makes me disappointed with the shop/tech... Perhaps they saw a sucker where they could make a few extra bucks. Oh well, I'll play the game and keep them on the hook for continued issues...

I appreciate the response. Did several pages of reading in the forum but wasn't able to track down the info I was looking for. I was surprised to see that a -1.5 caused that much wear, in that short of time frame/mileage. As time goes on, going to be getting some new brakes and suspension...

Angry? Naw, irritated at myself. That info was available in my first post. Without a doubt, I'm not going to pretend to know or understand anything beyond what I actually know. And that includes the physics of suspension, especially the more technical and detailed side of it. Big surprise, but...

Agreed, I thought it was mild as well but can definitely see the effects on the tires. And yes, when the camber bolt does get installed at next alignment, the toe will be set to center. Just irritated that I'm spending $500 on tires due to a preventable issue that I didn't notice till it was...

I'm annoyed that I'm just finding this out, nobody else's fault other than my own. Had my 2017 GT non PP for approx 5k miles. During oil change, saw that inner front tires being very worn down, scheduled alignment. Tech said that there is 1.5% camber on both front wheels and isn't able to make...

I've never been towards Happy Jack before, will give that a shot. Mountain roads are my preference, between the twists and elevation changes, I'm fortunate enough to be able to drive this one whenever I'd like. Hwy 89A, starts off at 5k' and goes up to 7k at the top, drops down to 3.5k in...

The overall issues you have here is the exact same issue you run into, regardless of what topic/job/hobby you're talking about: People's identity is their topic/job/hobby, it's what identifies them. So when a comment is made about that choice, they feel like it's a direct attack on them. You are...
