Exactly! I am not ready to go cutting up my Mach 1 yet, but deleting this stuff would definitely be like Mounjaro for our cars.
I thought about gutting my 16GT but I really don't need 3 track cars.
I haven't had a chance to take it on the street yet. We had a mini-monsoon in OKC yesterday morning. I will definitely update after my next track weekend.
I finally got around to installing the Steeda Competition FSB/RSB and Dual Rate Magneride Springs.
Tip if you decide to do this: do the FSB while the passenger side strut assembly is out. Makes the job 1000000% easier.....like I never had to drop an F bomb and had the stock out and the new...
Ya, this 100% depends on how hard you push/brake the car. Personally, I do not think the R8 is enough for this 3800lb pig. If you do want to use the R8, you are more than fine driving to the track with them. I would bring your stock pads and a caliper compressor just in case you burn through...
A little taste of HPDE. I wasn't going 10/10 because the track has a hard rule where if you spin, lose control, or go off track with a passenger then you are done for the day. Also, I think it is time for long tube headers.

This will make your life so much easier when changing oil. Yes, it takes a bit more time to drain, but you can rotate tires or do other maintenance during that time. Also, you wont...
Agree. The Mustang is no longer a "pony car" and far more of a muscle car. Unfortunately those who track Mustangs are in the minority. Most people feel safer with a larger vehicle, the reason Expeditions and Tahoes sell like crack in the US. The new Dark Horse weighs 4000 friggin lbs...
My N=1 says yes....you will fry your stock cats. I have had the Texas Speed LT headers with their cats on for about 10k miles and have not fried them.......yet.
I ran a few laps of the track on Saturday night. Holy hell the elevation is deceiving! Especially exiting T2 going CW. Now I know why the miata guys struggle there.
Scott is doing some amazing things with the track. One thing that was confirmed by him yesterday was a night time event. Seriously....night time racing! I told him to go ahead and take my money. Also, they hired a new social media guy who is awesome. He did a promo of my car and I took him...
Looking through pics of my track day yesterday, I saw this and was a bit shocked. Despite the massive size, I had zero issues passing the C6 and I was lapping the same time as my friend in the 911. 95 degrees with 75% humidity and the car had zero issues with heat. I did, however, have a...
A lot of good information from everyone. I love driving this car and I think I will just hang on to it. The car is too much of a fun, reliable daily driver to let it go for anything less than what I am asking. I already have seller's remorse as it is. I understand how the modifications will...
No, MT-82.
Not really sure why so many people are freaking out with the car having 83k miles. Keep in mind, it is almost 11 years old. That's less than 8k miles/year. Most that I've seen are north of 130k.
Sounds like I might need to take all of the blue stuff off, paint those parts...
Honestly, not really. I have looked at every gen 2 GT premium within a 250 mile radius. Naturally, I am biased but I really priced this car less than most and it is in far better condition than 99% of the ones I have seen. You should see what some of the dealers in the DFW area are asking for...
