  1. Tow vehicles and Trailers, share your setups!

    In the front I use an over the tire type strap that then ratchets towards the front (anchors at the rear of the front tire, has a pivot point at the front of the tire and then the ratchet is about 6" in front of the car pulling it tight). I have recessed E Track running the entire length of the...
  2. Tow vehicles and Trailers, share your setups!

    The trailer is 34' on the floor before the V. Truck weighs around 8000. Trailer loaded with 2 cars weighs around 14000. Total pulling is therefore in the 22000 range. I don't have an actual tongue weight. I run the square steel bar genuine "Equalizer" brand hitch (not the ones with the chains to...
  3. Tow vehicles and Trailers, share your setups!

    I usually pull 2 at a time. I use the long Race Ramps designed for the trailer door flip-out. Keep in mind that these cars are very wide. They are also low to the ground and difficult to tie down.
  4. Is there a better battery with higher CCA that fits our battery casing

    My 16 R came with a BXT-99RT4 rated at 390CCA. I'm amazed at how crappy a battery this is. In almost no down time at all it is struggling to turn the engine over.
  5. Poll: How many R owners bought a non-R first?

    I ordered both an R and a non R on the day order banks opened in 2015 from 2 different dealers. The R order "blew up" after 6 months (dealer did NOT have an R allocation). About that same time the yellow car was built and I took delivery in early January 2016. I was lucky enough to be able to...

    Sonax Wheel cleaner works well for me.
  8. Stock Dyno Pull at the Shelby Automotive Technology Center

    Keep in mind that the students were in charge of the dyno. I was behind the wheel on the first 2 pulls and there was an issue where the car would not turn but 5500 rpm. They were scratching their heads as to why. Everyone took a break. After the break they informed me that their sensor/probe in...

  13. An Owners Review: Going From A 16 Tech - 17 R

    NEVER get complacent when driving these cars. I've had mine dang near change a full lane during a pavement transition. I added the Steeda 2-Point G-Trac Brace. Didn't help much that I can tell. Congrats on your new ride!! Oh, BTW, welcome to the I paid sticker for an R club. :D
  14. GT350 R - who has one and what was ADM??

    Just for grins when I ordered my 16 Shadow Black R I tried to order the black roof option along with the stripe option (I know it's crazy) so that there would not be any stripes on the roof. I also thought it would make it a 1 of 1. Who else would be that stupid? They would not let me order a...
  15. GT350 R - who has one and what was ADM??

    Good to see you were prepared with the 7' Race Ramps. Besides sitting extremely low these cars are also much wider than most. Tough to get them in, out and strapped down in a trailer. Congrats on your new ride.
  16. HR696 is home. Need advice on stripes.

    I'll just leave these here as a thought.
