For the standard Mustang GT rotors, $745 for a 2 piece drilled/slotted rotor isn't bad. But when you have the Performance Package brakes on a 2020 Mustang GT, the Brembo front calipers, now you step up to a new level in price, $995 on American Muscle. Having replaced far too many drilled rotors...
BimmerDriver: Another typo from above, "you should be food." Intended, "You should be good."
Thanks for the info on the harness bar and sub-mount bracket. Re. Bray Krause, I think their harness bar may be about $600. Another $$$ item, the STOPTECH "floating" rotors, about $1,000, on sale now...
I'll look up where I got the titanium ships....after all you have done to date, you should be food, the titanium 1mm shims should be of some help. Where did you source the harness bar? I do like the one from Brey-Krause. At present don't think I can use 5 point belts, to slots in the PP1 seats...
Take a look at the article, maybe look the Garmin Catalyst Facebook Forum....your interest my be piqued. I bought my Garmin Catalyst from Peter Krause http://www.peterkrause.net/Krause_%26_Associates_LLC/Welcome.html
However there are dozens of dealers across the US and around the world.
I have about the same time in TT/HPDE and 10 years in wheel to wheel Porsche Racing. Those days are over. My car will remain mostly stock with the exception of improvements to the front brakes, going to racing pads that I'll swap out before the track, Titanium 1mm shims to keep some heat out of...
Thanks for the feedback....I just cannot believe how much fun the 2020 Mustang is on the street, and especially the track, it can do some serious work. So far we have visited two CA tracks, Willow Springs for a day and 2 days at Buttonwillow Raceway. Because she was so good at the track, I...
Good advice...if you are doing HPDE/DE, need to remind yourself it's not a race. I have changed to heavier fluid and have wrapped the expanse, ahead and aft of the diff. I believe 300 F is when the warning light comes on...have g=heard that the car goes into "Limp Mode", can't confirm. I had the...
Ford Part #: M-6007-M50C stick, use M50CAUTO for automatic. This is the complete Coyote crate engine: $8,601 from JEGS, it's out of the 2020 Ford Performance Catalog, page 80.

Try buying a 460 HP Porsche engine, BMW engine for this...
Add ons can be expensive. As an example, active exhaust...from Roush, about $3,000 + labor to install. Ford Performance Recaro seats, $3,000 a pair. I got the 2020 Mustang GT Deluxe...it comes with everything you could ever want or need. Get the Performance package 1, or 2 with Magnaride if you...
Two very attractive features for anyone who tracks their car: Added coolers for engine, transmission and differential. The diff will get hot on a track day, at least it did for me. Exhaust pipes are very close to the diff. I have upgraded the diff oil and had the exhaust wrapped ahead and aft of...
Troutwrangler!!!! I am embarrassed: 🥵Thank you for pointing out that I had, I and repeat had, listed Shelby GT 350 R as my car. I don't know how that happened...possibly because I was in a rush to join the Mustang6G Forum. I drive a 2020 Mustang GT, Perf Package 1, with a fresh Power Pack 2...
I checked the rules of the Forum, specifically, ""flaming and personal attacks are not acceptable". Your personal attacks on me are not appreciated. I am new to the Forum and may have made a few mistakes initially. To all who were offended, I am sorry.
Being a new Mustang owner, coming from 20+ years of Porsche, I have so much to learn, and I don't have time to go down dead end trails as I seek to optimize my car for the track, HPDE/TT. I have already made some mistakes, albeit minor thankfully, in my quest to get as prepared as possible for...

Floating rotors consist of two pieces: one central hub (sometimes called “the hat”) that attaches to the wheel itself, and an outer rotor ring that makes contact with the brake pad upon braking. ... This setup allows the rotor ring to move slightly as needed to optimize contact with the brake...
I have to agree....that makes perfect sense. All I know is that I had GIRO 2 piece in the past, and worked nicely. no trouble after 2 years on the track on a 2004 Porsche GT3.
Thanks to one and all for responding to my post. I do track the car. The cars has 2,200 miles and 3 days at the track. When I got a 2004 Porsche GT3, the first thing I did was to swap out the PCCB rotors with iron, went to GIRO 2 piece front and SEBRO aftermarket (Cheap) slotted on the rear...
Thanks for your input, POWERSTOP prices are so right, 1/2 of what Steeda and GIRO want to charge me...and for $453.00, they include track pads and stainless steel shims for heat dissipation. I use titanium shims, supposedly the best material.
