GAR944 replied to the thread 18x10 Square Offset Question.https://tiresize.com/wheel-offset-calculator/ very handy as it allows calc with spacers. Nothing will show you how close to the strut you are though which is a camber issue.Pretty sure these are the specs on the 20' wheels in bottom photos... (see full post)-
- TeeLew replied to the thread Advice on camber setting for track.It depends what materials you're switching to/from. PFC's are relatively aggressive and they are not particularly sensitive when running over another pad material. Pagid is really bad if you try to run it over something like a PFC. The braking is...

Junkyard Dog replied to the thread S550 Upside Down and on the Wrong Side.Ok. Sorry. I am learning more and more about the Gen 2 engine that I did not know. I certainly am not wanting GAR944 to bust his valve train. Lots of Gen 3 and Gen 4 Coyotes are running 8000 rpm.You are a PP3, though, right? Didn't Ford... (see full post)

Junkyard Dog replied to the thread Advice on camber setting for track.What is the lowest end of the recommended temperature for the pads you selected? They might not have a lot of grip (friction) below that temperature. (see full post)
- pokerdoker replied to the thread 18x10 Square Offset Question.Hello,Is this the staggered setup in the photos? If so what offsets/spacers and effective offset?With the 19x11 setup have you gotten it to fit well and if so, what offsets?Upon further research, Hankook RS4 305 30r19 pricing is better than...

bnight replied to the thread S550 Upside Down and on the Wrong Side.The Gen 2 head springs are hard no go over 7500 rumors has it they are a hard no go over 7000 rpm. (see full post)
Gunslinger55 replied to the thread Advice on camber setting for track.Whoops the quote did not work on previous post i was referring to sanding discs (see full post)-
Gunslinger55 replied to the thread Advice on camber setting for track.I’m also thinking it doesn’t matter as much as it has been led into believing. One car i have has race brakes from PFC and their directions with “race ready” pads (bedded) is to slap them on and run a few laps hard braking and cooling etc. No... (see full post)

Gunslinger55 replied to the thread 2025 PP GT, seeking better brake pads for Street, AutoX and occasional HPDE..After taking a long time and expense (ha!) on dillying with another car i am finally going to swap my brake pads out on my DH. Track season in AZ is almost upon us. GLoc 16/12 combo. Will report back. And see what it says on the back of the stock... (see full post)
biggsy replied to the thread S550 AJ Hartman Aero's GT350 Build.Looking forward to seeing the 350 turn into a race car…. First order of business is making a low profile center console so I can replace the OEM cup holders and remain in Max Class :) (see full post)
dave2278 replied to the thread S197 Redrum "GT350".Picked the engine up today, couple surprises I wasn’t expecting but happy to have, cold air intake and long tube headers.The engine is complete, I ordered a Make it Modular harness, a Boss 302R rack, and new RAM flywheel. If everything arrives... (see full post)-
- TeeLew replied to the thread Ford hypercar testing.Exactly, but how bad-ass were planes like the F-100 & F-104? They just looked fast. They're all before my time, but I've always thought they were cool.The front of a prototype gets about 12-25mm of travel and 30-50mm travel on the rear... (see full post)

GAR944 replied to the thread S550 Upside Down and on the Wrong Side.When the injector duty hits 131% i think we have an issue. So starting with a 34lb injector x 131% gets us to 44.54lbs and assume max duty wanted is 80% gets to 56lbs. I assume they will throw some 60lb injectors in. Will find out today. I... (see full post)

blacksheep-1 replied to the thread Ford hypercar testing.F5 was a prime example, couldn't break Mach 1, until theY Coke bottled the fuselage. Fugly cars should be factored into the BoP..Yes, and shock tech has stalled, at least had stalled. Seems you can only do so much on about 4 inches of travel.I... (see full post)

honeybadger replied to the thread Ford hypercar testing.I really want to know what they've changed to keep it alive for the durations they need. It sounds absolutely killer. can't wait to hear one at COTA next year (see full post)
