  1. Alignment Issues

    Toe out is twitchy, period. Most street cars run a fair amount of toe in as it accommodates most drivers even if it is not the most performance orientated. 1.5 degrees of camber is fine for the street and really will not affect twitchiness.
  2. New tune - initial first timeline

    Not all "tuners" are good
  3. New tune - initial first timeline

    If the "tuner" is popular they are probably getting 5-6 requests a day plus doing their day job. If the initial email was sparce on information or their are some initial instructions that were not followed that usual shuffles that request to the back of the line. As far as initial tune not...
  4. Alignment Issues

    You need more front toe in to slow down the reaction time of the front end. More caster would usually help but that looks to be all the way adjusted. Set each front wheel to .15 degrees positive with a total between the two wheels at .30 degrees. It will feel much better on the street. Not sure...
  5. Supercharging fact and fiction help me clear up my worries

    A supercharged car is not instantly junk for hdpe, but how long and how hard you can run are affected. It does become a bit of an engineering exercise. You need appropriate cooling for the additional power, or for the length of time you plan on running. Also there are trade offs you can make...
  6. Hold out for PP2 or buy PP1 -> Track Build

    This is spot on info. I have lived it :-)
  7. Overthinking my mt82 manual trans fluid change

    You may not notice a difference if you're not pushing it very hard. I have had to put a shifter in and change out the engine and trans mounts as trying to get from 4th to second of a high speed strait was quite a chore and sometimes impossible. After using BG this happens pretty straight forward...
  8. Oil Pan Leak

    My 2017 had an oil pan leak at 2600 miles. I went ahead and used that as an excuse to put a better pan on it for road courses. What I found is whoever is putting the sealant on for the rear cover on the block, is getting messy with it and there is a cured glob of it right where the oil pan...
  9. Overthinking my mt82 manual trans fluid change

    I have used amsoil, the ford stuff, and valvoline. The BG stuff made a noticeable improvement in shift quality. My MT82 shifts way better with BG in it, I can easily get a double down shift coming into a corner on the track, were as before, it was notchy and sometimes a miss, even on fresh...
  10. To all the manual drivers #2

    Be kind to throw out bearings, put it in neutral.
  11. Honey Badger's Completely Off-the-Rails Race Car Build and Track Adventure Thread

    Yup I am getting ready to replace what I thought was my dream suspension, as I have ran out of adjustment, for the new speeds and things I am learning. As I get older budget become easier but I am sure there is a precipice coming where I start to age out being effective with all my cool hot rod...
  12. Honey Badger's Completely Off-the-Rails Race Car Build and Track Adventure Thread

    Can non Shelby's go to the RA event. It would ve awesome to meet you all in person. Share notes.
  13. Honey Badger's Completely Off-the-Rails Race Car Build and Track Adventure Thread

    I have had luck softening the rear spring and compression and increasing the jounce damping to gain traction through mid corner, but I run no aero. That car is ultra impressive, makes me wanna sleep in the garage and empty the bank account.
  14. Community Feedback Needed! Apex Wheels Project ML-10 Survey

    I am late to the party as usual. I have been looking for a set of 19s to use on the street that would also work in a pinch for track duty. These look to be the logical choice. I don't need much convincing to pull the trigger, but was wondering if there were any deals going for forum members.
  15. Any supercharger regrets?

    I use a fair bit of that power on the track, and really appreciate it.
  16. Any supercharger regrets?

    They are the Conti's. I dont have much experience with driving slicks, I have engineered a number of vehicles using them. In all transparency I got a great deal on them, so figured why not. After using them I am not sure I will go back to a street tire on the track. The car was so much more...
  17. Any supercharger regrets?

    2017 PP1. It has been a blast, but definetly not a one and done project. I have a Gen 2 whipple I believe. I got the 3L design for the body in white cars at the time. I had to add a significant oil cooler. I also had to upgrade he water to air intercool kit. I also ended up changing the belly...
  18. Post Pix of your S550 with aftermarket wheels and tires

    Those look really good! May need some new street hoops.
  19. GRABBER BLUE S550 MUSTANG Thread

    Some professional shots I got during some track time this fall. Some people are way more talented behind a lense than I ever will be.
