Like.I don't know about the laws, but the stock brake pads on the Dark Horse have a higher coefficient of friction than that (the purple line on the chart in the post immediately above this one). - TeeLew replied to the thread Advice on setup for street and track!.Yep, and they really fight rear locking.

Gunslinger55 replied to the thread Suspension soft?.Cool didn’t know anyone else made one. What are the helper springs for? Does it have a threaded perch for ride height? (see full post)
RinerAuto posted the thread 2013-2014 FORScan Profile in S197 Mustang Tech - GT, Boss 302 and GT500.Does anyone have a 2013-2014 Mustang FORScan profile that they wouldn't mind sharing?

kevfrank replied to the thread S550 Stock-ish.@Bill Pemberton Do you remember the max negative front camber you got with the MM camber plates? And were you on lowering springs?

Completely understand, there are many folks with M&M Camber plates and as I mentioned I had a set on my GT 350, and I forgot that I also had a set on my Boss 302 LS. If you are going to Road Atlanta do check those pads as you will be eating them...
