    Alright, so, if you are going to install jacking rails, how do you lift your car to install them? Just very carefully with some pads to protect the pinch welds? (see full post)

    I’ve got the car booked in to be inspected and having the brakes flushed and filled with Motul 600 brake fluid next week. I’ll take the advice from you guys and get some pads too. I’ve read here that Hawk DTC 60 and HPS (front/rear) are decent. I...

    I'd be afraid of being rear ended by all the Miatas buzzing around my rear end on the out lap like a disturbed hive of angry bees. (see full post)

    I ended up with an X-Spec version caus there was one in Australia already, great smooth action but a pain going from 3rd to 2nd on track. Ended up putting a 3 inch extension on it and loved the difference. The springing in the MGW is quite firm... (see full post)

    We will have a team heading out to Ponies in the Ozarks if anyone will be out there. This will be mainly our employees who participate in HPDE events and will be tracking their vehicles. Looking forward to seeing some of you out there!

    I'll own up to doing that also. Trailered the car to the track for the first time with the Mustang. Half a lap is not enough time to get some temp into Cup 2's. Looped it off track in the 2nd of 3 consecutive hairpins at low speed. Every photo... (see full post)

    I went with a 305's all the way around. These do not come in a 315 but do come in a 325 but the 325's were out of stock.

    You will likely use a lower tire pressure than with the PS4s. Stevbd is correct if the weather and pavement are cold, but if the weather is warm ( along with the pavement) there should be little or no difference in warm up. Surprisingly I suggest...

    Just adding - my MT82 is crunchy around town at low RPM. Never complains at redline. (see full post)

    It's also a matter of the right pressures and suspension. If you are not taking good care of your tire pressures during a track day aka checking in/center/out temperatures and making sure your pressures are not rising to the moon by bleeding them...

    I wonder if he cut that on a curb or something? Road Atlanta, and a few others are noted for that

    I plan on being there and the event is absolutely a must for Mustang Trackhorses in the Midwest. With a repaved track about 3 years ago, times are 2-3 seconds faster than in years past. If it has been a 4-5 years since you have been there the...
