Was able to get about 2.5 degrees with what I have. Would these allow for 3.5?

What do you have?

Maximum Motorsports plates

You will get more then -2.5. Depends on how low the car is, but -3-3.5 is normal with the Vorslag plates. You will need to enlarge the opening at the top of the strut tower for maximum camber.

What was required besides the top hat portion of the spring mount to get these to fit with the ridetechs?

Is The shaft OD and pillow ball ID different?

We can set them up with 2.5" upper spring perch. The shaft diameter is the same.

I am a Baer dealer. I will offer them in slotted only when they do a production run. I would rather you bought them from me then Lethal!

Well, put me in line for that as well.

The car preformed great last weekend at OUSCA PPIR event. These events are so much fun, if you have not done one, you need to put it on your list of things to do!

Just an update on "Real World" gains we made on the car in the last year. Power wise the car has stayed the same, but we spent a lot of time in the offseason dropping weight in some key places with Oddessy battery, Baer 2 piece rotors, Tiger Racing Hood, Carbon Dynamics 350R spoiler, and a Driveshaft Shop aluminum driveshaft. The biggest changes were the switch to BFG Rival S tires and RideTech Level 3 coilovers! The amount of grip and control off the corner has really made a difference. We will take it as a given that the times from these OUSCA events were on different days and you can not replicate track conditions, but the drop in lap times is evident.

OUSCA NCM:

2015 Best Lap 1:40.007
2016 Best Lap 1:38.651

OUCSA PPIR:

2015 Best Lap 1:05.444
2016 Best Lap 1:04.055

Sock, I have noticed you haven't added any bracing to the front k member or the rear subframe. Do you think the poly or Delrin bushings are the way to go? Rather than the subframe lockout braces? Thanks

My experience, to this point, is that the BMR Delrin cradle bushings and the Aluminum diff bushings lend enough control of the rear subframe/suspension that I do not feel a need to add the weight of the braces. Keep in mind that this combination is very noisy but it works great! These chassis are very stiff compared to earlier Mustangs.

I had a great weekend at the COTA OUSCA event! I was able to win the speed stop, Placed second in AutoX and Road Course, and tied for third in D&E. Once the point were totaled I took home the GT Class win in the biggest class of the season and a second consecutive invite to OUSCI at SEMA! Vegas here we come!
