12coBoss replied to the thread 2026 Mustang Round Up - Motorsports Park Hastings, NE.Well bummer on the rear end struggles rwwilli09 hopefully the new cooler gets that corrected. TMSBOSS I get what you're saying to know what you are getting into, it's a big commitment going that far. (see full post)- TeeLew replied to the thread S550 Rear spoiler recommendation for Road America?.I agree with your statement to just drive it the way it is. No question. I'm not a fan of just adding front. You'll add front naturally as you add cooling, but I really think there's more time in getting the rear more nailed. The most common... (see full post)
Fabman replied to the thread S550 Honey Badger GT350 Build.I'm a little confused....I see that you plan to use a slug in the end of the tube and then weld it to the collar and use plug welds which is fine. However, do you plan to weld the center piece to the collar first and then slip the outer tube over... (see full post)-

- TA28 replied to the thread 4.6 3 valve blocks.Not sure on boss 302 motors. I bought 2 spare fr500c engines. 1 off dean when I bought car. Other off Jim seafuse. When roush rebuilt them I'm sure ALL timing components went into scrap pill. And I mean everything other than bare head! and all... (see full post)
blacksheep-1 replied to the thread 4.6 3 valve blocks.Yeah, I think the Grand Am boss 302s were rated for 50 hours. The FRC cars were " spec" so they could do that. (see full post)-
blacksheep-1 replied to the thread Necessity is a mother...or something like that. Shifter fix.Yes, it was a ton of work, including finding a junk yard Trans and installing that. (see full post)

RedStallion27 replied to the thread S550 Feedback about my driving.Thanks. That’s definitely a fun, tricky part of the track.My problem is that 3rd gear redlines at 82mph and I’m approaching 100mph by the end of that technical section. So either I lose a few mph by staying in 4th before the turn, or I have to... (see full post)-
RedStallion27 replied to the thread S550 Feedback about my driving.You’re definitely right. I’ve been reading about car rotation and started to execute it for the first time on this track day. It was wonderful feeling the rear of the car float around the corner.Now I can work on throttling faster out of the... (see full post)
Mad Hatter replied to the thread S550 Feedback about my driving.Maybe in that curve around 1min you could take it in third? I would take all this section in the pic in third and balance the car on throttle. Looks like you could make up a lot of time there. (see full post)-

302BOB replied to the thread Bob's Ton of Posts!.Today's Cryptoquote............" My father used to say, "Well, Ann, maybe the best thing you'll ever do. you haven't even thought of yet."_____________Ann Curry (see full post)- TeeLew replied to the thread S550 Rear spoiler recommendation for Road America?.To do it correctly, you would have about a 6-8 inch NASCAR spoiler. I'm being completely serious. Drag really doesn't matter there because it balances out with cornering and braking improvements. At this point in your driving education, you"re... (see full post)
