More wins at Sebring with the Steeda Road Race K - Member. Plus, we can't forget about our HPDE Red Mustang which was the fastest overall in the advanced class!

You look like you probably couldn't drive a soapy stick up wet ass, anyway, so it probably doesn't matter.

C'mon, Dave, you know who this is.

I am hoping it is Tim, but if it isnt sorry you disapprove of my car handling skills. Just out having fun.

You will still need a bumpsteer kit when you locate to the upper hole for roll center correction. Furthermore, as you can see it has a slot to adjust track width as well. It is held in place with a cam lock.

So this would eliminate the need for your Front Control Arms Lateral Links w/ Extended Ball Joint (555-4906)?

Could we still use your Front Control Arms Tension Links w/ Bearings (555-4908)?

Also, what modifications are needed to work with the stock belly pan?

We wanted to take a minute and post up and congratulate Dennis Healy on his 2nd place autocross finish and 1st place overall finish at the OPTIMA Search for the Ultimate Street Car this month! Only 0.014 sec away from first place! He’s been doing a killer job behind the wheel, and we’re really impressed with how far he’s taken his Steeda-equipped S550!

0.014 seconds... seems you need a slightly longer splitter.

Recently finished getting the Road race K-member in. Weighed both K-members without motor mounts attached or any mounting hardware. Stock is 67.0 and Steeda is 47.9.
You also might spy with your eye a GT500 oil pan that was installed at the same time. I will be putting the belly pan back on but wanted to to show the pics of the full view.

I also have a Whipple setup and with adding this or any other K-member version, you loose one of the isolation points for the IC tank. The tank is completely bolted and supported above it but has a third point for stabilizing and this contact would be rubbing against the bottom lower corner of the radiator since the factory K-member spot is no longer there. Mine is the aluminum version over the plastic style tank and this was my quick fix.

Thanks for the pics db252.

Is it pretty obvious where the points are to widen the track? I am curious how this is accomplished.

So far would you say this is a worth the upgrade?
