    Small world. I have a Boss and my daughter RS at the house now. The RS is a fun little car. A little shy on rubber/tires though.

    It's kind of interesting back in the day at Phoenix we were running a gt3 Porsche along with the Boss 302 in the same race, different classes. The Porsche engineer was surprised we were as fast as we were , 7th overall, with the mustang. He was...

    It's a 'strut' because of the geometry of the links. 'Coil-over' generally refers to a damper with a threaded body to allow for an adjustabile spring perch.It's slang.

    I heard BS1 is ok with using rear lower control arms as long as you mention which rims and watts link you are running! 🤣🤷🏼‍♂️🤡

    Even with aggressive rear pads R8 in my case the Fronts R10 and R12 were gone before my R8's were gone and that's with all the extra heat from ABS and the longer stops. That been said the DS2500 works amazingly well on the rear and besides the... (see full post)

    In my fervent search for information regarding Ferodo pads earlier this year, I've read the M2 posts and other people's testimonies, and as well as from my own experience - I can attest to the DS2500 being a great street, autox and light track...

    And these guys say the same thing. The DS2500 disappears pretty quickly on the front (although it stops the car all the way through the session).https://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1743886One post from that thread quoted below...

    Ok, thanks. Ferodo says DS2500 is ok for road use, but DSUNO "is not suitable for road use." :confused: The DS2500 is the only Ferodo pad that does not have that warning.Just for reference, an Essex rep giving Ferodo advice for heavy...

    Depends on the spring. There are "zero" rate helpers that do fully compress when the car is on the ground but keep the main spring in position when the car is elevated or if it gets air on track. These do not impact the overall rate. There are...

    Maybe a question for Tim but could I run G-locs in the front and OEM pads in the rear? For the street/track, I would swap the front pads and rotors as I have 2 sets of front rotors. I would run OEM pads on the street so wouldn’t want to mix brake...
