  1. Lap Time Thread

    Thanks, Bill. It was a perfect combination of a cool morning and extra-grippy track conditions.

  4. 2020 Mustang GT350R Reviews

    The more time I spend on the track driving different cars, the more I realize that weight is the enemy. I don't remember if you were part of the discussion with Todd Soderquist at Mustang Roundup concerning the GT500, but he specified that the GT500 was designed as a grand-tourer with track...
  5. GT350R hub replacement options for heavy track use?

    I'm making a list of items to replace in the offseason, and one of them is to look at options for replacing the stock hubs on my GT350R to something more robust. Is there anyone using aftermarket or Ford Performance parts for front and rear hubs? The only option I could track down are these...
  6. Camber plates - which ones to get

    I've had a different experience. I replaced the SC2's with PS4S tires and the tramlining is non-existent for me, and that's with Vorshlag plates and -2.5 camber up front. I guess YMMV.
  7. TMO At COTA?

    Hmmm. Not to be contrary, but what about Black's in Lockhart? I've never had better brisket.https://blacksbbq.com/lockhart.html

  9. Driving School @ ncracing

    NASA NorCal might be an option. They have an HPDE program that requires in-car instructors for beginners, though I have found adherence to safety regs and instructor quality varies between regions. Both Porsche Club and BMW Club also have HPDE. Anyone have any experience with NASA NorCal...

  11. Ford's "Have a Good Time at the Track" plug.

    Not sure what suspension you are running, but what were your impressions on driving dynamics with the TC fully disabled compared to the Track setting?
  12. Getting comfortable being uncomfortable. How did/do you do it?

    Usually the greatest bang for the buck once you feel you've reached a plateau is utilizing data analytics via an AimSolo or similar, and hiring a qualified coach to interpret the data. For me, being able to see in black and white where I am losing time compared to a driver who knows how to...
  13. Ford's "Have a Good Time at the Track" plug.

    Specifically, has anyone tracked their GT350 with slicks with this connection unplugged? If not, I guess I'll be the guinea pig and post results.
  14. Ford's "Have a Good Time at the Track" plug.

    I wanted to follow up on this thread to poll users on their experiences, good or bad, when they remove this plug. Pros/cons?
  15. NASA Central Event at MPH cancelled for April 13-14

    I'll be driving my R in TT. Yes, T10 can be tricky, as you drive over the launch point of the drag strip, so grip can be unpredictable. Two of my close NASA associates have hit the wall there, and I've seen seen a couple of race cars hit it as well. Safe travels, hope the weather cooperates!
