Having raced the track a few times, I can tell you Laguna Seca or "Weathertech raceway" is a great destination. It's a city park so the gates are almost always open. Sometimes they charge an entry fee depending on what's going on at the time. There are trails and areas you can walk or ride a...

I am also wondering if there is any benefit to ordering direct from Cervini's or Trufiber rather than an authorized dealer?

So, my '15 GT has the dreaded corrosion issue around the edges and it's gradually getting worse. Ford will not cover it and I'm looking for an aftermarket replacement. My car is not a daily driver and I do occasionally take it out on a road course. It's typically parked outside next to my...

It's an illusion. The color on most modern high metallic colors will literally change color depending on the angle and lighting conditions. You can re-paint it to match the one angle and then it won't match anywhere else. Plastic bumper covers don't match metal fenders & quarter panels when...

I had a similar but not as bad situation with mine. In addition to that, the car would not start unless I shoved the clutch pedal damn near through the firewall. After inspecting the clutch pedal at the pivot, I found it was cracked really bad. Also found out this is a common issue. It was a...

HELL YEAH!!!

I have 75k on my 2015 PP. I have an Excedy clutch with MGW shifter. Have had many an issue with the MT82 and had to have it re-built at an independent shop after multiple dealers told me there wasn't a problem. (broken parts and synchros) After the re-build it was better but still really notchy...

I've often wondered why Ford did not offer power & heat with the Recaro seat option. I love mine but I wish they were a little more adjustable and the heater would sure be nice on cold mornings. I've heard they are available outside of the USA but can not confirm.

Looks like some kind of PCV maybe?

Thanks. It's sad that these are not unique experiences.

Same issue here. Had my car in at 3 different dealers and they all said the same thing "nothing is wrong, it's normal". This was all during the warranty period. Ford customer care was no help at all. I got so frustrated I gave up. Luckily I bought an extended warranty with the car. I took it...

If your vibration does not change with brakes on or off, check wheel bearings and suspension bushings. Possibly the driveline and/or axles too. I've seen drilled rotors come apart on the racetrack. Not pretty.

Isn't the powertrain warranty 6 years 60k? I Effin hate the "stealerships". Haven't had a single positive experience at any Ford service dept. Not many dealers rebuild any major component anymore. They're all parts replacers now.

I am 100% correct on a factory built Corvair. (I have owned a few) I am familiar with the "Corv-8" conversion and this was not an OEM option. Very cool modification though and I have seen a few at car shows.

Corvair is "rear engine". Still has a back seat and gets really tail-happy in a tight turn.

Those welds that let go do not look like the factory spot welds. Looks like really poor quality MIG welds to me. Is this a salvage title car or has it ever been wrecked before? I've never seen that many welds break loose with no apparent damage to the panels. Might not be a bad thing if they do...

+3 on the Firehawk Indy 500 tire. On my 2nd set of rears now.

Those numbers look pretty good. I'm with DanaPants on the front toe. should be just slightly in a bit. Cross-camber could be better but a difference of up to .5 is typically within spec.
