Introduce yourself!!

[panhandler62]

Hi... just thought I would say that.
I just picked up a slightly used hairdryer model.

I traded a 2012 G37 for this orange beauty. I'm still learning where everything is. I do think I'm going to upgrade the USB hub and update the SYnc system so I can use carplay ... nothing else planned but enjoying it for now.

I spent some time drooling over the GT350 in the showroom while they got my paperwork ready ... $57k didn't quite work with my budget though, but I'm liking my little topless pumpkin pretty well.

Hello M6g community,
My name is Jason, 31 yrs old, and I'm what most people would refer to as a total gearhead. I love all forms of motorsports and also am a mechanic by trade, so you could say I eat, sleep and breath this stuff.
I have had many many great vehicles over the years(as well as some not so great ones), but I had the opportunity in 2015 to try a friend's S550 GT PP at an autocross event. I was very impressed with the car in many ways and it was a far cry from the fox body that i owned years ago, that left so much to be desired.. About 5 months later I decided that it was time to trade in the 2015 Subaru STi I was driving. I went to the local Ford dealers in search of a GT350, only to find out that the mark up over sticker on them was out of control :shrug: I ended up taking out the loaded GT PP for a test drive and fell in love all over again. Of course I tried to contain that as best I could until I has negotiated the deal I was looking for on the trade in :clap2:
In 2016 I drove the car with just an X pipe, axle back and sticky tires. I managed to take 3rd place for the year in SCCNH autocross Stock Sedan class. Which I was pleased with considering it was my first year in a new car and how completely different it was from my previous car.
In 2017 the car is now prepped for Street Touring Pony class and WOW, what a difference! Looking forward to seeing how the year plays out, as I relearn the car's new found grip and handling!
If anyone is in the New England area, please feel free to reach out! I'd love to meet up for cruise days, shows, racing, ect.

Hey all, my name is Brian (luckyborn) from Southern California - this is my first of many Mustangs to come. My wife asked for a convertible mustang for her 40th and it quickly became my convertible and she couldn't be happier. Lucky Me. :-)

2015 Black Eco Convertible
Mods: Ford Performance Tune/Calibration kit, Mishimoto Intercooler, Turbosmart blow-off valve, Ford Performance Street Handling Pack, Ford Performance six-piston brake upgrade kit, Giovanna 20" Wheels w/ Hankooks - so far. Trying to stay in warranty for a while longer, then much more to come.

Any suggestions on additional things I could do would be appreciated. Thanks!

Beautiful Stang!!
Isn't much that looks better than a black shiny car.

Welcome, do you ever do any track days in the area or just autocross? Would be nice to see some more S550s at track day events, so far I've only met one other guy from Maine with one.

I made it out to one last year at Palmer. It was a great time, but autocross is much more cost effective for me. I will try to get out to at least one this year as well.

Which one are you trying to make and what group? I usually run with COMSCC but may do some SCCA track nights also.

 

[CompOrangeS550]

I've been considering a track night as well. Haven't pinned down a certain event at this point. When I do go I will run in the intermediate group. When I figure out which event I'll be at I'll shoot you a PM. Would be fun to have another S550 to run with for sure.

Hell yeah man! What do you use for the fancy telemetry overlay?

Howdy all from Texas! I just traded in for a used 2015 Mustang GT. Pretty basic at this point but do have the AWE track catback on order. I look forward to meeting people and gaining knowledge on the S550.
