- JAJ replied to the thread Rotating your tires on a track weekend.Unless you're in a 2013/14 GT500. 19" fronts, 20" rears, directional tires. No rotating those dudes. A lot of people crapped on the Goodyears, but they were great tires once they warmed up., (see full post)
blacksheep-1 replied to the thread Rotating your tires on a track weekend.Directional tires means you're stuck doing front to rear and visa versa. After about 50% wear, I take them to the tire shop and fip them inside out for the last 50% (see full post)

Bill Pemberton posted the thread A fe pics from the 2026 Solo Nationals ----- TMO members and more! in General Mustang Forum.I did not take a zillion pics like I have in the past as I found myself watching a bunch of Classes with friends I had not seen for quite a few years - ran into two Conehead Racers I had not seen for 30 years!! Since I joined SCCA in 1981 and...

dave2278 replied to the thread Clutch replacement.I did read about your helper spring issue, I have had no problems with mine.I had a very similar noise with the 4.6, only in 4th about 40 mph, but with the coyote it’s quite, very interesting. (see full post)

- stevbd replied to the thread Clutch replacement.The only resonance I get from the AL flywheel is with the car in gear, on throttle, at 1500 rpm, worst in 4th and 5th gear, if I’m kind of lugging the engine. I just drive around it.Small detail, this clutch didn’t work well with the stock... (see full post)

dave2278 replied to the thread Clutch replacement.I had the LW steel on the 4.6 and went with the Aluminum with the Coyote swap, I haven’t driven it much but it is actually quieter with aluminum than the steel for me, no odd resonance that I have heard (see full post)
- stevbd replied to the thread Rotating your tires on a track weekend.Similar to @JAJ, I basically just move the tire with the most tread to the corner where I expect the most abuse. If on the same dry course, this usually involves swapping in a criss-cross pattern.Be careful that many tires are directional in... (see full post)
- stevbd replied to the thread Clutch replacement.I did similar but went with the smaller Ram concept 9.5 and Ram AL flywheel. Agree, great looking quality clutch. Liking this setup a lot except 1500 rpm resonance with the flywheel. (see full post)

dave2278 replied to the thread Clutch replacement.RAM Concept 10.5, excellent clutch, and all made in house in South Carolina. (see full post)
Hello. What are folks out there using for a replacement clutch? Mcleod? Exedy? Other? Looking for a twin disc. Car will be tracked 5+ days a year, and it is not a daily. Motor being rebuilt to make hopefully 350 reliable rwhp. Its a 4.6. Thanks...-

dave2278 replied to the thread Rotating your tires on a track weekend.I rotate after each track day or autocross. I do a standard rotation, crossing the fronts to the rear and the rears go straight forward.My tires have very even wear, so works for me. (see full post)
Junkyard Dog replied to the thread Vorshlag S650 Camber Plates + OEM Struts + 19x11 Square Setup.LOL, I am like four inches. I'll go measure this weekend. (see full post)
EricH replied to the thread Vorshlag S650 Camber Plates + OEM Struts + 19x11 Square Setup.Thank you for that info I was unaware- I’m currently measuring almost 7 inches of ground clearance from the front lip which seems like way too much but idk why it could have gone up after wheel and tire change.

- JAJ replied to the thread Rotating your tires on a track weekend.My simple approach has two components.First, with a set of four new tires, consider them as two pairs. One pair starts on the front and the other pair starts on the rear. The two tires in each pair stay together when you're swapping front to... (see full post)
