I have get to big for the normal technique, I have big feet so I roll to the side. I'm not perfect but good enough to not upset the car. It does take some laps to map out the breaking point. The car doesn't have a gear sensor so I don't think Rev matching is possible.

I saw a guy on i95 shoot out a cars window, never know what his motivation was. People are nutz. He was next to me for a good while. Glad you are safe.. Why couldn't you outrun a ford fusion?

Stiff after driving a while.

I haven't had it happen recently.

If you are used to driving aggressively in a FWD or AWD car a high powered RWD car will hand you your ass in short order. Drifting = crashing. Best way is to get some time on track learn the limits and dial it back form there for the street. The GT350 short of cold tires has so much grip...

Not to nit pick but the engine is not rated for boost. It got the GT500 block but the block is rarely the weak point of a engine from a boost POV.

I think the weight gap is about 12 - 16 pounds on a good set of wheels. That doesn't take into account stiffness though. I am not hating on the CF wheels I think they are awesome I was just opining on the value.

I don't think they are just going to break. Too fragile was poor word choice. I have have wheels damaged by potholes, curbs, rocks, etc. The reparability on the CF wheels seems low.

Same standards what does that mean? At 4000+ each it makes perfect sense. I do not know why some people on this site pretend money is no object. What about potholes or if they get curbed? Would I track 12000 wheels over $4000 wheels that are a little heavier? no.

As others have said put them up and see if anyone bites. They will probably be worth what you paid but that might take many years. They are too expensive and to run on the track and too fragile to run on the street, so the real value will be a R owner looking for replacements. Wheels...

Its possible these are relatively cool days.

The shifter in my car feels a little too stiff. The transmission was replaced so I'm going to assume some level of incompetence is to blame. Aside from being maybe 30 percent too stiff it works fine. I would say the stiffness started after the engine was changed. I replaced the fluid but no...

I had a high speed vibration with my lexus turned out the tires were facked up. I had a high speed balance done and sent their report to tirerack and they took them back. They were technically balanced though Edit I see now you found the issue.

Im on my second transmission.

People move on the to the latest. I debated selling mine but Ill have it for at least another year. I got the extended warranty aswell. I was looking at a GT3 or a 997 turbo but they have shot up in price lately. To be a 100% FORD dealers and service have more hesitant to keep the car then...

what are strakes?

Thanks for the input how long do you hope this motor will last ideally.

Ball park what are these engine builds costing?

Does any one have experience with Archetype Racing Splitter? They had one for the stock GT350 splitter but I no longer see it. My Type R splitter is looking worse for where and track season is about to start.

I debated just using it at the track, im not sure I will get into my driveway with it on.
