    I worked as a flagger at turn 6 for the 14 hour champ car race at Daytona a couple of weeks back. Was great fun, lots to do. I was a big fan of code 35 pink flag. I know Kohr prepped a s197 for that race. Few pictures I took from turn 6

    Well i’d though i’d post up after 1200 miles and 3 solid weekends of track on my stock (except for dual catch can x pipe and brake cooling deflectors) Dark Horse HP car. The biggest performance trait seems to be the brakes. I can out brake...

    Sorry I'm a little late to this thread. So, getting ready to change the diff fluid for the first time (+ about 2500 miles, including maybe one hour track time) since installing 4:10 gears and Ford performance (non-Torsen) LSD. If I buy a gallon... (see full post)

    Haha warranty is a good deal and my buddy got 2 engines for his mach 1 under warranty. He's putting in the gt500 pan though this time. I might do the same but i’m still under warranty so screw it. It took 1.5 g’s yesterday i never saw an oil... (see full post)

    Track forum. No cats in racecar. Diesel oil. Cheaper. More zddp. Been racing on diesel oil for 2 decades on my racecars.

    Consider repairing the harness. There appears to be enough wire remaining to make the repair. Get some heat shrink, waterproof connectors and have at it. Tie it out of the way once repaired. Take the money saved and sign up for another track... (see full post)

    I would suggest tie wrapping the bundle back behind the shock. You can see it contacted it as well. Waiting to hear how the track alignment did it from dealer. Apparently the sensors and wiring are a weak point (see full post)
