- AgsBoss302 replied to the thread Pettit lemans road Atlanta corral lap.Got it; thank you!l I’ll see if I can go last since it is my first time there and I just upgraded to a Boss so I don’t want to do anything stupid. I’m thinking about getting some classes from an instructor at road Atlanta; that way I’m more... (see full post)
Mad Hatter replied to the thread Early S197 Booster/ Master cylinder upgrade?.That will work fine. Since the pedal travel is a longer you want to use a aggressive brake pad to make up for it. Am pretty sure the Boss brake booster is the same as the GT500 unit. (see full post)
Torchvert posted the thread Early S197 Booster/ Master cylinder upgrade? in Brakes, Wheels and Tires.I'm currently running the s550 performance pack 6 pot Brembos on my 2005. Right now the engine is currently out for a Coyote swap.Wondering what the best strategy would be to upgrade the brake booster and/or master cylinder while everything is...- galaxy replied to the thread Pettit lemans road Atlanta corral lap.Uummmm, it's not that cosmic; don't overthink it. It's most certainly not a track day. I wouldn't full on call it anti-climactic, but it's nothing to stress over. It's pretty darn cool to get out there and drive on the track and experience what...

honeybadger replied to the thread S550 GT350.OP Mustang nuts are the best bar none. Been using them since 2018 and haven't a single issue with themhttps://www.opmustang.com/store/p315/14mmHighStrengthRacingLugNuts.html#/ (see full post)- TeeLew replied to the thread Sway Bar Basics - Check my Math - 5490-A???.These guys literally do not know what they're taking about. They will produce these really impressive videos describing car handling all sorts of wrong. They know a selection of words, but those words have different meanings than they suspect. (see full post)
- k_z replied to the thread Oil Pump Gear / Crank Sprocket Upgrade? 2022 Mach 1 w/hp. Stock engine..Absolutely zero reason to replace OPG if you're engine is completely stock (or even are running the tune) - unless you're already getting in there for some other reason. There are stock cars ran much harder than most people will ever run them and... (see full post)

Mad Hatter replied to the thread S550 Should I replace these pads?.If you run your track days with all the track nannies off, the rear pads will last at the very least twice as long as two front pads. I would swap the fronts in, but for me the Gloc 10 are not so great for our heavy cars. I tried the 12's and... (see full post)
- EF1 replied to the thread S550 Should I replace these pads?.I would leave the stock pads for now. Mat run less aggressive pads in the rear anyway. (see full post)
dave2278 replied to the thread S550 Should I replace these pads?.Replace them, if you have an aggressive pad in the front and stock rear the braking will be unbalanced. (see full post)

2016 GT performance pack With 14K miles.I drive like a grandma on the street but started tracking my car this year. As expected, the track days are quickly wearing down my front brake pads. They are down to just a few millimeters. However, my...- stevbd replied to the thread Sway Bar Basics - Check my Math - 5490-A???.Well yes but we’re talking about mitigating the skip with setup not counter steer. If you’re counter steering through the corner you’re probably losing time. I think it’s interesting that in that video the car has an upsized rear sway bar. (see full post)
krisk replied to the thread Cage, Seats and Harness in my S650.No modifications were required. The seat touches the center console, which makes it tougher to slide the seat forward if you are using slider mounts, but it still functions.

EricH replied to the thread Cage, Seats and Harness in my S650.I think I’m going with the sparco evo L ‘x’ & I now have the Pci sliders mount - I know you mention fitment is tight but did you have to modify anything to install in the s650? (see full post)
