[QUOTE="P5Boy, post: 15937326, member: 4879"] Hi Bad Company, I am sure the car could use a better driver. I still haven't transitioned from the stock setup where I had to be very careful where I used WOT and now. My lap times do indicate that I am hustling the car around the track. I am slowing the car down from significant speeds and hitting threshold braking. But I won't argue that I have stuff to re-learn. My brake markers aren't applicable with this new setup. Kevin helped with me with CorteX install / setup. I probably will try to catch him at a NASA event. See if he's up for driving it. Kevin will probably get the car for some other issues I am having. I handle all of my brake maintenance. There's just so much to do and it's a function of costs (at some point) for me. I've made myself some wood tools to help me with caliper rebuilds. Then there's the after-every-day/event tasks. I also do full bleeds after every weekend. I also track caliper temps... I was hoping some folks with much more experience with CorteX on heavy (not AI/AIX, I tip the scale with full tank and my fat a** at around 4,000 something lbs.) Mustangs or torque arms in general would chime in with knowledge. I'm just not experienced enough to know if this is the new normal. My only experience to tap is a stock 2013 GT500 on Goodyears. The front (and rear) tow hook is made by Blowfish Racing. It's the "gen 2" style. It attaches to the crash bumper (via two piece boxed cage). I do like the Blowfish stuff, it is nice and sturdy. You do have to remove some of the dense foam 5 mph bumper or just leave out the foam parts if you don't drive on public streets (like me). [/QUOTE]
