Had a chance to run the south oval/road course at NHMS in Loudon. On the third lap I ran over on track debris and blew the left rear tire on the straight at over 100 mph. There was no way the inflator goo would patch the large gash in the tire. Luckily I only live 30 min away and my wonderful...
The redline revs were actually quite a bit lower. 289, 302, 351C, and 351W (most common V8 displacements 1968-1973) were all 4500 - 5000 RPM stock. Built, maybe another 1K, but prone to less than desirable reliability (hence the term grenading an engine).

You have the patience of a saint! I ordered through Granger beginning of November 2021, lost patience and bought my 2021 Mach 1 locally in February 2022, with the same options as the 2022 I ordered The car I ordered was finally delivered October 2022. Turned it down due to the downturn in the...
I usually plan on $1k for a weekend (track fees, insurance, gas, hotel, and food). Mass Tuning costs less like @jmagnus87 mentioned, BMW-CCA and PCA about $150 more per day. BMW is now accepting non BMW-CCA members due to declining track day enrollment. PCA accepts BMW-CCA and Audi memberships...
I joined BMW-CCA for access to more HPDE events. Been to Palmer, NHMS in Loudon, NH, and Club Motorsports in Tamworth, NH with the BMW club and the Porsche club (PCA). Some of the folks I hang out with at the track drive a 2012 Mustang, an Audi S4 or a Porsche (depends on how he feels that day)...
More impressive, dealer stock order not customer order. And you can lease it for 36 months for ONLY $1328.67 per month ($47,832.12 total), 10,500 miles per year. :crackup:
Chrome / brushed aluminum definitely goes with red. My old 1978 Trans Am.

Either way, your Mach 1 looks great with the chrome rims! :like: :rockon::sunglasses:
Let's see...
1978 Mercury Cougar XR7 - Such a fun cruiser!
1978 Trans Am - numbers matching W-72 TA 6.6 with 72k miles. Owned for 19 years and sold it to a friend who is currently doing a frame off restoration. Sold it to buy the next car on the list.

Square light in a round hole?? Must have had a special hammer. :crackup:

You also said " I have a line on a minty 6k miles 2019 PP1 6sp w Magneride and AE." In order to turn the 2019 into a PP2 you would need the above parts, which also includes the PP2 magneride calibration. You asked, I gave an answer. Your car, you do whatever you want.
PP1 to PP2... here ya go. Google is your friend.
