    My 2015 test drive.

    I just tell them I know a stock broker in NY. It's my free pass. :)

    My 2015 test drive.

    Actually I'm enjoying the 911. But... the sound of that GT350 is alluring.

    My 2015 test drive.

    Auto. Maybe the open top had something to do with it? Honestly, I'm at a loss to. I EXPECT the GT350 to be better than my Griggs' car but actually drivable on the street. I'm loving the sound of the flat plane crank.

    My 2015 test drive.

    Well I got to spend 4 days with a 2015 Ecoboost convertible while in Florida. It had about 2k miles and smelled brand new. My first impression was a rather nice throttle note for a 4 cylinder and improved sightlines. Seats were reasonably comfortable and supportive and interior quality is much...

    Need just a LITTLE bit more power

    Dave, Michael at L&M does this all the time for SCCA/NASA guys. He routinely hits very tight HP/TQ targets to retain best in class setups. He won't guess, he'll engineer it. http://www.lmengines.com/

    Bolt in/Weld in Roll bars

    Please read Dave's post carefully. I've seen numerous BMW's and 911's who were competing in PCA or BMW Club but failed NASA tech. I had a very reputable drag race shop ready to build me a cage. I supplied them with SCCA and NASA regs but after investigating further found their cage would not...

    Release Date

    IMO they should keep the car under wraps until it's just about ready to be released. When I first saw it I was very tempted to trade in for it but the by the time it's available the wow factor is tempered and there are many other options.

    Suggest recipe to make S197 = E46 M3

    Saw the ad on SpecE30 site. Nice price. Have you talked to Drew at Drivegear ? FWIW, I went from a track beast Mustang to Spec Miata. If you're working with budget constraints pay attention to consumables. Supercharged running 100 octane, 315' R6's, I probably spent 10x more on Mustang track...

    2015 Stang pics

    I love the looks and improvements on paper. We'll have to see what it drives like. Also, I was a big fan of the SVO and will never forget my test drive in one. It was the early days of turbos and that thing came on like a hammer so the 2.3 has me interested as well but I have to wonder. A...

    Whiteline Watts Link Failure

    Make 10 and sell the spares as upgrades. :)

    Whiteline Watts Link Failure

    Definitely not. Cast material has no grain, can be porous, and brittle. Forged>Wrought>Cast Fabricated parts involve welding which can introduce heat risers. Penetrant inspection would reveal indications which could eventually fail but cost is definitely an issue. If it were my car I'd...

    STUMPED: Questions about a 2007 Mustang at a dealer here locally in okc

    In court, this is fraudulent advertising period. A dealership is in the business of selling cars and has a responsibility to accurately represent what model/features they are selling. Likely someone sold them this car as describe but shame on them for doing zero research. I can't imagine a...

    Race video - American Iron

    Yeah, major divebomb. That's the second video I've seen of bad behavior at this last hyperfest. Did they look at at your video for the incident report? Looks like 100% his fault.

    Tire Setup to Save Money: Boss 302, Please!

    First day on track? Run what you got. Unless you're driving studded snow tires I don't think tire selection will be an issue. Focus on the driver, not the car. At local open track days we run exercises in a Golf TDI with all season radials.

    NASA Race @ NJMP last weekend

    I got wrecked by a rookie in Friday's race and ended up with a bent sub-frame. We spent most of Saturday hammering sheet metal and twisting wrenches but only got a little camber back and the car did not like left turns. I adjusted toe several times and scales showed corners were ok so I decided...

    Guys need some help quick!!!

    If you loosen your motor mounts to allow the engine to tip toward the back it'll give you much easier access to the top bolts and slave connections.
