This uses your seat posts to mount this hard bar securely and it gets excellent footage. Even with my old non stabilized GoPro Hero 3 Black it got rock solid video. It fits S550 Mustangs for sure, and might fit S197's but I'd have to measure for you.

I read somewhere online in a manual that Ford recommends changing the tranny and differential oil out after every track event. Seem like a bit much? After my last HPDE with Amsoil MTF I actually hurt the tranny and it was replaced under warranty. It makes me a bit hesitant to go back to...
I attended an HPDE at COTA last month with The Drivers Edge and I'll share my experience here in case anyone else is doing homework in preparation for this monster like I did.
First off, this track is extremely technical and the fastest track I've been on by far but it is also the funnest and...
I've read that BMR says you should check your alignment after installation, but is that more of a "cover your ass" statement? Anyone get their alignment checked after and find it off?
Reason I ask is I just got my alignment done and don't really want to drop another $80 if I don't have to.
I happened to be in the area and stopped at SAR tonight. This is my first time in about 10 years to run the 1/4 and I forgot how fun it can be. I'm normally an HPDE guy... My first time staging and a 2013 Mustang GT Track Pack wants to get lined up with me so I said sure. He said he had an...
I've had this issue for a while now and my local Ford dealer is having problems getting it fixed. From a slow roll or a stop if I turn and have light to medium gas applied I get a pretty audible pop from the rear of the car that I can hear and feel through the floorboard. My dealership said...
Got pulled over this weekend by the license plate police, good god i hate that dumb law. So whats the consensus on the best bracket for these cars? It seems the Sto N Sho may be really damage prone if you were to tap a curb or dip in the road but Craigs isnt exactly a hidden mount. Thoughts...
I had a blast last weekend in my 2015 GT PP with The Drivers Edge at MSR Cresson near Forth Worth Texas. The car did very well for a basically stock car and hung with the big boys including my Dad's C6Z06. Some cars that fell to the lowly Mustang include an Aston Martin DB9, C6 Z06's, C6 Grand...
Anyone have part numbers for Carbotech pads? I called them and they said they dont have anything yet for the 15 GT PP but I've heard some others saying they're running some already. Hawk also doesnt have anything listed as fitting and I called them and they said they have one that kinda works...
I have the option of Chrome or Black lugs on my Forgestars that are Piano Black. Some people complain that black rims disappear on the car, some people complain about chrome lugs on black rims, some people say the chrome lugs give contrast and apparently Ford likes them for their PP cars. What...
Will a 5mm spacer need longer studs or will the stock ones be fine? I ordered a set of Forgestar F14's in 19X10 squared but the caveat was in order to make them rotatable according to Forgestar I need to run a 5mm spacer up front.
These were taken off a few hundred miles after purchase and are practically brand new. Asking $600, normal pricing from TireRack is around double that. If you want them shipped you'll have to pay for shipping, otherwise pickup is in Austin Texas or the surrounding area.

My first time, I nearly spit water when I saw the picture.

I've seen several reports of people saying they're losing power with catback systems on the 5.0 S550's. One guy dyno'd before and after going with Stainless Works and he lost 10 HP and 5 ft/lbs and it also caused his A/F mixture to run super rich at higher RPM's. Just a heads up for those with...
Anyone planning to do this or know what offset would be needed? I'm currently running 275/40/19's squared but would like to be able to rotate my tires (PP staggered rims) and 10" would IMO fit 275 or 285 rubber better than 9.5's.
Just a heads up, it does the same exact thing the older Coyote motors did. I just changed over to Amsoil SS 10W-30 with an Amsoil filter.
I guess if it were a real issue Ford would have addressed it with the new motor. Oh well, doesnt bother me.
I just noticed on my 2015 Premium that I have 2 little punctures in my seat already just from getting in and out with jeans on. You know how most jeans have little metal rivets on them? Well DONT wear them with this car. The leather is so pathetic that jeans will tear them up. 2 Years with...
I've gone through the manual and Googled around but havent found anything on the best jack/jackstand points for the S550. Anyone got any info or illustrations for those of us who dont have a lift?
