I'm surprised you think the PP1 brembos are poor. I personally cheap out and go with the powerstop track day pads and have never once had an issue with my brakes on track. I have a close friend that has been building his C6 grand sport over the last 2 years and one of his biggest issues has...

Thanks! I'll have to go say hi if I see you out there again.

I was at that event as well and it was a great time, I'm already itching to get back! I think I remember seeing you, I was the other blue mustang with the red wheels.

I ran STP the first year I had my mustang and in my local (Texas) region we had a decent number of participants, maybe 6. The next year I ran STP for the first half of the year but nearly everyone started transferring to CAM, including me. I started doing more road course events and started...

I'll be at Circuit of the Americas June 29th :)

I run the powerstop pads and haven't had any issues with noise or vibration with street and track use. I like the pad's performance but the rotors wear at about the same rate as the pads. I'm okay with this because standard rotors and these pads are still cheaper than a set of G-locs, but with...

I'm glad to hear that I don't need to shell out big bucks for rotors. I have learned with the powerstop pads that I have to clean off the bulk of the dust immediately because it becomes much more difficult once it gets wet and dries again. I've also noticed the dust will rust if not cleaned...

After 37k miles of street driving, a few seasons of autox, and 6-7 track days, my factory PP rotors are starting to develop a lip and will need to be replaced soon. After looking up replacements, I see standard aftermarket rotors on rockauto going from anywhere between $40 to $100+ per front...

I'm strongly considering doing an '18 mani/CAI/tune as my next major mod. I'm leaning towards going with the beefcake JLT/Lund combo but open to other options. I use this car for autox and road course so I'm definitely interested in raising the rev limit and making more power up top. My...

Next even I'm doing is with The Drivers Edge at the Motorsports Ranch - Cresson 3.1 mile course. I've ran the MSRC 1.7 and 1.3 courses before but this will be the first time I've run the combined course. I'm looking forward to some more instruction as I'm still fairly new to the sport and need...

The bracket I mentioned is made by a member on another popular mustang forum. It mounts to the back bolts that attach the front seat and gives you a spot to attach the lap and sub belts. You basically sit on the submarine belt and route it between the seat back and seat cushion. Would this...

I've done close to 15k on them so far and the harshness really isn't bad at all. I could deal with the 600/1440 if it wasn't for the front of the car basically bobbing up and down going down a mostly smooth road. Like I said, the original vendor claimed they were valved for these spring rates...

Last season I switched from STP to CAM-C, mostly due to local competition, we've got a pretty healthy CAM-C class with 6-7 regulars and a handful of occasionals. I'll be the first to say that my car is much faster than I am as a driver, since my co-driver would consistently run 1-2s faster...

Has anyone used 5 or 6 point harnesses with the stock seats? I've been debating between getting a pair of the quickfit pros or doing a harness bar (cipher?) and bottom brackets that allow the use of a 5 or 6pt. I have someone willing to sell me some basic 5pt harnesses for a good price that...

I had a set of JDM allstar switchback LEDs (off amazon) and was having issues with the taillights. The dealer reflash the BCM and it worked fine for about a year but started to do it again. I was already having issues with those LEDs falling out of the socket due to a loose fit so I just...

I run local HPDE events with a healthy amount of 1LEs running around. If you think the dedicated track rats are taking their stock 1LEs to the track, you would be very wrong. They tweak suspension and upgrade parts just like everyone else. The ones that do bring their stock 1LEs probably don't...

They are much less grabby on the street than the PP pads, they need some heat in them before they hit their peak grabbiness, its very noticeable when its below 50°. They dust a bit more than the PP pads and it can take some scrubbing to get it off the wheels. These things are all pretty common...

I ordered a set of the Powerstop Track day pads as well based on the recommendations on this forum and others. I haven't installed them yet but I will be trying them out at Eagles Canyon Raceway at the end of the month, which is notoriously tough on brakes. I'm hoping it serves me well as a...

I was out at a track day yesterday and started experience fuel starvation with a little bit more than 1/4 tank. These cars chug gas on the track and from now on I'm going to make sure I always have at least half a tank. With a full tank, I got about 70 min of track time before it started...

I appreciate the help, this deal was on my mind all last night so I actually went ahead and ordered a set of the 305/30/19s this morning to use for track days. Now I'm on the search for some 19x11 wheels :D
