    What happened to this article or thread?

    Curious about the story behind this video? Link below the video does not work. Couldn't find anything with the search, but I admit I may have not have searched the right terms in the right forums. I hope it isn't a sore subject or anything. I'd just like to know about the car and the driver.

    What do I need to do pre track day?

    I'm guessing change the brake fluid? I have Motul ready to go. It never goes bad if the bottles are factory sealed, right? Do I need to verify the splitter is on correctly? Whats the best way to do that? Does it need it's first oil change before I go? What is the best way to record this...

    Coolest sticker from the GT350 unwrap, and first impressions

    I hope it's not a repost Picked up a 17 today, drove it 240 miles home. Extremely short review.. Ride is tight, but ok. Stereo sucks ass. I know, GT350 Track car, etc. Still a car in this price range should have a decent sounding stereo, IMHO. Car gets 17+ MPG traveling at a high rate of...

    Should I get another 13-14 GT500 or a GT350 or a?

    Nice weather has me itching to get back on road courses. I know the GT350 is supposed to be tailor made for that purpose, but I find it hard to buy a car down 130 to 187 HP to the current competition. Road course car or not, the occasional stop light grand prix always pops up. Even if it...

    You know Ford's hype machine was successful when...

    A GT350 is front and center at a Maclern dealer. Early in the day it was out front in front of all the exotics.

    2014 RR/BLK GT500, No Mods, Hand Washed/Waxed, Pristine, 12K Miles, 821A, TP, Recaros

    It does have redline hood struts and MPSS 275/295s. Never in bad weather, always in the garage, hand waxed with Blitz, hand washed always. I even put it in my barn, so I could "find" it there and take some pictures, lol. Stock down to the original yellow air filter. Ruby Red/ Black Stripes. 821A...

    Yet another MPSS Tire thread

    I did a search, must have read 10 threads, lol. We all know the MPSS is the superior all around tire, but what would be better for track events? The "Ferrari " 12" tread width version is $425.00 and back ordered at Tire rack, the Goodyear is $271.00 and in stock. And now the $64,000...

    Stock Brake Pad, Friction Material Thickness

    I have a two day track event coming up. Of course life got in the way of preparations and I haven't had time to pull a wheel or two to get a real good read on how much pad I have left. I hope to do that today. How much did they have when new? Current pads have two events and 6K miles on them...

    Open Track/DE/Road Race guys.. Pedal questions

    What are you adding if anything to make heel toe downshifting easier? The pedals are just a touch too far apart IMHO...

    Track Pack oil change

    Over on the Shelby forum, a few people complained the filters leaked with a 3/4 turn passed contact. How tight are you guys making the filter?

    How to the sun visors come down?

    I don't see the typical Phillips head screws, lol. I was thinking of tucking a plate in there that I could use for a camera mount.

    Best iphone mount for Harry's Lap timer with Video?

    I have a windshield suction cup mounted HD Drift, but would like the Harry's with data. I'm also sick of the tech guys giving me grief about the suction cup mount. I saw in another thread Van has his mounted for video, curious how he did it. Also curious what other mounts are out there...

    Minimally invasive stereo fix?

    I had the shaker pro in my first GT500. I wasn't a huge fan but it was good enough for me to not feel the need to mess with it. My new car doesn't have the pro. Story as to why I have a new one is here in case anyone missed it...

    Totalled! Now What?

    My beautiful 2013 DIB stripe delete was taken out by someone who, following their GPS suggestion, made a left turn from the right lane right in front of me in their Escape. His fault, citation issued. My insurance says it a total loss. Not quite giving me enough money, but I'm gonna work on...

    Best "street" 0-60 as reported by "track apps"?

    Mine is several 4.6s but can't seem to put up a 4.5? This is on level ground of course, well as close to level as you can tell by eye.

    Dash says "low Air pressure", Tire gauge doesn't?

    What do I do now? Is there away to find which sensor the car thinks is low? I have 32 psi tire in each at the moment.

    Manually naming an album when Gracenote fails to do so?

    I tried doing a search with no luck. One of the CDs I put on the hard drive came up as "Unknown Artist, Unknown Album". Is there anyway to correct this?

    I think I want new wheels...

    Generally,I don't bother with aftermarket wheels, I usually choose to spend on go fast parts. I like the look of the PP wheels, but damn they suck to clean. Looking for something that looks great, but isn't to complex so I can wipe 'em down quick. I always wanted a car with ronal R9s, or...

    Best smartphone mount

    Tried a quick search, no luck, Whats the best way to mount an iphone for "trapster" use? I'd like a mount that is solid, doesn't fall off the windshield, and keeps the phone charged. I had the tom tom for my iphone 4 that I used in my truck, it was a decent mount, but it's expensive and...

    New Yorkers, Get in here! Going to the US Open, safe to bring the '13?

    I have tickets for the mens' final of the US open. I really don't want to drive the wife's car from PA to NY. I just love driving the '13. Question is, I have no idea what the parking is like at the open? I'm guessing there will be a lot of high end cars there, so it would probably be ok. Just...
