Excellent... Thanks for the suggestions gentlemen.... Definitely don't care about the daily aspect as these will be track only set up. Any other suggestions welcome as well. If there is an option that require spacers (assume 305) ... Are spacers hard to put on and off? Require anything special?

So as I'm getting more and more hooked into the RR scene, I'm wanting to slowly migrate to better tire specifically for track days. I'm currently running 285/35/20 PS4's on 20x10 SVE squared set up. Although they do a great job on the track overall, I would like stickier tires to be able to...

I've run E85 in all my events so far. Basically get 2 - 30 minute sessions in before needing a refuel. This last event was during the Texas July summer with temps above 100* and I feel it helped keeping everything cool.

TJ... Can you send me the code as well. Thank you!

What I'm currently running and will probably continue to run at this point. No issues to report at this point on 3 sessions.

Track Armour works really well as a easy on/off wrap to use for track days and road trips. Def. agree that the car is quite capable in it's stock form, but there are a few simple things that can be done to help reduce worries while on track. The easiest is fluids (oil/trans/diff/brake). Keep...

So post track day feedback on R10 front and OEM rear. No issues what so ever. Never had any feeling of the rears wanting to do more than track straight even under heavy braking on the front and back straight. This track day in particular was brutal as it was 99* air temp, track temp being...

At this point I would say there would be no reason to worry about being ready or not. There's a whole range of skill levels out there, but the biggest thing is to just get out there period and gain the experience. Every car has an instructor (till you get solo qualified), and safety is their...

So just finished a track day at COTA. Outside temps were 98-100* with track temps in the 115*+. Sitting on the grid for 10 minutes in that heat IATs sat 128-130*. Not bad IMO. As it stands right now, it looks to be fairly effective at keeping temps at bay and happy with the results.

My rears have plenty of pad left so figured I'll try the R10s on the front and OEM rear. I'll see how that works and feels. I doubt I'm pushing the car hard enough to cause any upsetting of the car under hard braking. When my skill level advances, then i may see that difference. I'm using...

Definitely get that...just don't want to double buy pads to just shelve them. It's what I figured about OEM. Ended up getting R8 for the rears. I may try the R10s in front with OEM rear and see how it feels. If all goes well, then will stick with that combo.

Not sure if bad, but haven't seen any detrimental effects such as hood flutter, etc etc. Usually the closing off of grills from an OEM standpoint is done for decrease in drag which helps MPG standards. My observation was that was a good first step in introducing more air and at the very least...

So on the first point...and it's only my opinion. Ford has many many many more parameters designing an vehicle's intake than for HP seeking. Durability, maintenance, cost, noise factors, different climates, etc etc etc. So while the OEM intake is not "broke" per se, that doesn't mean there...

A year ago it was a thought...6 months ago during winter months, glad I didn't, and now still happy with not have OEM and the benefits of having and CAI/E85 tune combo.

I've never dyno'd the car, but this forum is full of threads and guys who have dyno'd showing gains. I've been doing this for a while now and there is give and take with everything, but being the power they seem to make with these coyotes, the gains are worth higher IATs. Now on in the 2v...

Yea for sure...it's not noticeable at all from front on or any other angle except for close up so figured...meh... functional...doesn't have to be pretty. What it does show is where their is contact with hood and where there isn't. I'm going to keep adding to the top till I see it deform to...

So like everyone else I've been looking at ways of combating some of the crazy high IATs I've see after getting my JLT CAI. Before I started playing around with different options I would see traffic IATs in Texas summers as high as 165* slowly moving through traffic at sub-10mph or at a...

So being I still have the OEM pads in the rear, would you think for the short term, R10 with OEM rear? Looking at the matrix they have, looks like they like to do the R10/R8 combo for mild track use and R12/R10 for moderate. Do you bounce between the GS-1 fronts with R8/R10 rears? Dust/noise...

I apologize for not being more clear. Dust is not an issue in general for me. I don't care if the wheel is covered head to toe by just looking at the wheel in a weird day on track days. That's why I swap after track days to more street pads. I was looking more for feedback about track...

Gentlemen, I'm looking for a little advice on road course pads. I'm still in the novice run group and the OEM PP pads have performed flawlessly. I will be coming up on my 3rd event at COTA (1 at MSR Houston, and 1 at COTA) with another follow up event in Sept at MSR Houston. My question is...
