Gunslinger55 replied to the thread Suspension soft?.Very nice. I gotta say that max acceleration G may be off on first run. Lateral looks good i pulled 1.2 in my stock dark horse on track mode. Has more in it. But all it takes is money to get more. That’s why we are here lol (see full post)

bnight replied to the thread Suspension soft?.And just to add to the topic here is a great video from Suspension Secrets UK where they fit coilovers and tires to a F80 M3 (very similar suspension to the Mustang).
