I think either a PP2 GT or Mach1 manual with the handling pack would be just as good as the GT350 if not better. More low end torque and you can run 18" wheels for the Yoks if you want. The 1LE is right there if not the best in the class. I'm looking forward to what the new FS will be like. I...

I generally don't recommend a company or product except for it's merits based on value, quality or performance. I recommend Hagerty because of what the company stands for and is trying to promote. Hagerty is run by true car guys who are simply motivated in promoting driving as a right and...

Unplugging the dyno plug will only turn off the traction control, you still have ABS. It's not legal to run in that configuration in Street class although if you ask the other people in your class they probably won't have a problem with it at local events. I'm not sure if it affects Magneride or...

It's still going to be a stacked class, with Leeder, Daddio, Strano, Hale and several other Camaro guys in there. But, gotta try try try.

I've had great service from Zohr and am happy to recommend them. Best part is they come to you so you don't have to go schlep the wheels to a shop and wait for them. They do big tires/wheels all the time and when Ford brought GT500's to Heartland Park they were the only place that would change...

Excellent design! These look like great products and happy to see a local company doing it right!

I use them for autocross tires. I recommend them.

Autocross isn't for everyone but I really enjoy the challenge of it. To do it really well you have to be able to visualize the course (line) from walking it and then execute that vision with as few mistakes as possible. Some people are able to look ahead far enough to read the course and react...

Yep, I'm aware of that and wrote a letter. I made the point that the Mach1 has the same option and wasn't singled out. I spoke with an SEB member at Nationals about it and my concern has been alleviated.

I ran a '15 PP1 in FS for a couple of years, took some time off from autox and then got a '20 GT350 to run in BS. I cross shopped a bunch of cars in the same price/performance range and am still very happy with the GT350 decision. The biggest differences I noticed from the '15 are it has a lot...

I've been chasing an in-car setup that allows me to see my hands and also get a decent shot of the course. It's a lot easier if you have a convertible or no windshield but for the Mustang this is what I've come up with. I try to get the camera lens at about the same plane as my eyes, so it's...

When the car has been off for a while you'll find the shocks are in super soft mode. It's not bouncy but you can pretty easily move the car up and down by pushing on the cowl support. When it's running I can barely budge it.

Best place for your car is CAMC. It's pretty much a run what you brung on 200TW tires. Like @NightmareMoon says, your best investment is in driving skills. Get as much seat time as you can, ask for instruction and help and listen to advice that's given. We all just want to go faster and nearly...

No I haven't used them. Keep in mind that a 2-pc rotor has just a little bit of float in it to allow for axial misalignment. I don't feel any slop in the GT350 rotors, those pins are tight and I like that design that seems to allow only radial movement. I like the Longacre gauge I use that...

Quickjacks. I don't have space for a 2-post lift, the Quickjacks are a decent compromise. Before that, floor jack and jackstands. Good core workout. :cool:

The primary benefit of the adjustable links is that they are so much easier to adjust. The stock adjustment is a slotted hole on the upper inboard link which is "difficult" to get (requires a long flex head ratcheting wrench) and to adjust the link location you sometimes need to unload the...

I've done that and it works but it's messy. There's enough slip that you can just bounce the car and it'll settle. The really nice thing about the Magneride shocks is that they're full soft when the car is off and it bounces super easy.

Yes although if you're using tiles, they have enough slip that you can just bounce the car up and down to settle it.

Yes, once I figure out how many tiles go on each corner I mark an outline of the tiles and the number for each stack on the floor. Jack up the car and put the tiles under the tire and let it down. Of course, be careful when jacking up the car with tires on tiles. The tiles can slide pretty easy...

Mark your garage floor where your tires sit so you know where they'll be when you're checking everything, then move the car. Get some 1' square vinyl floor tiles or anything else you can use as shims. Get about 15' of clear plastic tubing and a couple of jack stands. Fill the tubing with water...
