RedStallion27 replied to the thread S550 Driving without TPMS.Thank you. That is an important point I hadn't considered. (see full post)- JAJ replied to the thread S550 Driving without TPMS.Personally, I'd never run on track without TPMS. The only numbers I keep on the dash display are tire pressures - there's a computer for everything else. There are two reasons for that. First, tire pressures give you information about grip -...

- LSboss replied to the thread R7 tire problem.Steve is mostly correct with his analysis. ;) Track banking was not a factor as the Road America incident happened on the second long straight away without any turning loads. Although my car does weigh 3555# with full fuel and driver (good guess... (see full post)
blacksheep-1 replied to the thread Still stuck in gear?.My Shelby does this, I think the cheesy automatic trans type fiber synchros do this a lot. What I do is just let the clutch out a little at a time and try to "rock" the car so that some trans fluid splashes back up onto those synchros and you can...

- Hubs981 posted the thread Clunk noise resolved--bad clutch disc in Drivetrain, Exhaust and Electrical.I bought my 2012 GT in December 2024. Soon after, I noticed a distinct clunk sound would often occur when getting the car going in 1st gear and when shifting into 2nd and 3rd. Not so distinct at the higher gears.

steveespo replied to the thread R7 tire problem.Hoosiers do not like banked tracks. And by banked I mean 7 degrees or more. They also do not do well with low pressures to build to hot.

GAR944 replied to the thread S550 Driving without TPMS.2017, never had a problem. The light does come on at some inopportune times but has no effect apart from being annoying. Have multiple sets of track wheels with no sensors. (see full post)- Slow3v replied to the thread Crankshaft relearn.o_O living up to the name is right, LOL. Whoops. (see full post)
Junkyard Dog replied to the thread S550 Driving without TPMS.LOL, yeah, like I said, I don't have your answer, but I thought I would pass along that thread, since it discussed the issue. I take it you have not yet mounted the wheels and tires and tried to put the car in track mode? (see full post)-
RedStallion27 replied to the thread S550 Driving without TPMS.Thank you. I saw that thread as well but found it inconclusive. One person said it’s a problem and one person said it’s not. (see full post)
A few of the guys got out to COTA with the GTD and CFTP GT500 to get some seat time in with the GTD. If you are into HPDE, we will be at more events this year across the country!
