A couple local track buddies have custom cut Hawk pads on their GT500s. They got them before the front pads were available for our cars. They both raved about the stopping power. I reached out to Hawk and they said they had some pads coming out for the car. Once available, I got a set and used...

Hawk Performance has new track pads for the 2020-2022 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500. DTC-70 for the front & DTC-60 for the rear. These are absolutely AMAZING track pads! If you want next level braking, get these track pads from Hawk Performance! I show the pads, install process, bedding process...

Congratulations all the way around!

What branch is your oldest going in and what is he going to be doing?

I’ll repeat what I said above. Nick said he bought a 2020 CFTP to go on tour of Europe with… a father/son adventure before the son went off to college. They were going to hit tracks across Europe with the car. COVID hit and Europe shut down killing that plan. He subsequently sold the car as the...

This was told to me by the man himself. The CFTP was purchased for an adventure… that adventure was killed by COVID.

Thanks Michael! Sorry about the flu! Nick is a retired Ford exec. He bought the CFTP to tour Europe with his son before he went off to college… he wanted a bad ass track car that they could hit tracks across Europe while on their tour. COVID hit and Europe shut down killing those plans. That...

Yes, great guy. He and his car are FAST!

He’s a cool dude with some cool toys! His “350” is a body in white (non vin) Mustang shell that he built into a race car. He put a 5.2 cross plane motor in it from what I recall chatting with him. It is basically just a shell with a motor and clocks in at 3100 lbs!

Ride along in my 760 hp 2020 Shelby GT500 Carbon Fiber Track Pack at the most technical, most challenging track in N. America! This 4 mile track is not for the faint of heart... one new GT500 hit a wall on this day. OIR is loaded with blind hills/turns, has many off camber corners and is...

Appreciate it Billy! 🍻 I’m still using the zip ties… hadn’t seen the harness collars before. Thanks for the link. I just installed a passenger side harness and used the zip ties once again.

Yes… I had 2 amazing track days at Ozarks International Raceway recently… working on those videos. The first day was mid to upper 80s… I drove the car HARD and had no oil temp issues. The second day was cooler.

Thanks Gary! I haven’t had any issues with my diff. Full disclosure though… I have my exhaust wrapped where it goes by the diff. I have also changed the diff oil once.

My 2020 Shelby GT500 suffered engine oil overheats at a hot track day recently. You could feel the engine was down on power. Once home, I went to work finding the culprit and recently tested my solution at a subsequent track day, which was successful! I show what the problem was and how I went...

If you do it properly, it will work. No need to mod the car. This one is GT500 specific as the buttons and menus are different than the above video:

In this video, I show the two ways to push/roll the 2020, 2021, or 2022 Shelby GT500 with the Tremec TR-9070 DCT 7-speed dual-clutch transmission while the engine is off. First up is Stay In Neutral Mode, which requires the engine to be started first... it can be shut off once this mode is...

Thanks Jared! 🍻

Thanks Jamie! It’s an alternative. There are a variety of products for the rear end of these cars. This is an economical/easy mod.

I show video of my independent rear suspension before and after installation of the Kelltrac Posi Loc System on my Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 CFTP as well as the step-by-step installation process. Posi Loc is in reference to centering & positively locking the IRS subframe in relation to the body...

Appreciate the feedback! Since you have spent quite a bit of time at the track like I have, I can guarantee you have debris stuck in there.
