Like.Hello everyone! I have signed up for one of the Road Atlanta track days during the MCA anniversary event at the end of August. For those that might be familiar, I've done the Dark Horse Track Attack on the Roval and am wondering if this track...

I will politely disagree not because your logic does not seem reasonable but from 45 years of racing/autocrossing and having some sponsorships from various tire companies over the years. Give me a shorter sidewall, less squirm and frankly I...

Part of the concern for you is that old cats do get plugged and because of the metals used they still go for new prices. You likely will be better off buying new ones though they will be pricey also - tough situation.

Tim.ocon replied to the thread S197 First stang.The vorshlag plates were HUGE for helping correct this, alignments are now super easy as the caster is fixed and camber is maxed out. Toe is all that needs adjusted which most shops around can do and just set at 0 when camber is maxed! (see full post)

Never been before but I'm going with a big group of friends that done TF multiple times so that's why it's so exciting. We are mostly there to enjoy Spa though and get some time at the Ring. The GP track is actually one of my favourites and I...

Yeah, I found one guy locally selling some off of a wrecked car, he wanted $750. That's a little rich for my blood.

To be legal for CSM, I have to have stock cats. Right now the car has some aftermarket cats that are very poorly welded into the OEM piping.

Bill Pemberton replied to the thread CCW wheels.No surprise to many of us and your butt-o-meter may be quite correct as the Continentals were very slow.

When I ran the continental/Hoosier 305/680R18 slicks. The car felt really good. I will admit the car felt a bit better in the corners with Continental Extreme Force Contacts 305/30R18s. I also had new dampers and springs.
