Don't worry about it. Buy a helmet. Register for an HPDE track day. All of the organizations will have instructors when you are new. The instructors will keep you from getting over your head. Just talk to them and let them know your concerns and listen to what they say when you are on the...

The new 6.7 engine with 535 horsepower is going to be the standard Corvette engine next year (2027)

You have already exceed the strength of the half shafts Ford installed in your car. The "all kinds of weird traction problems" are the only thing saving your half shafts.

That's pretty entertaining when he has "Matt" drive the car, knowing he does not like fast cars. Starts it, "Oh, growls, doesn't it?"

Did RTR upgrade your axles?

Oh, when you say track, you mean a drag strip? Not a race track. Sorry. I figured with 10" fronts and 11" rears . . . I was thinking about a real race track. Ok, fine. I am eager to see what sort of e.t. you can produce.

Here is the Ford F-150 pickup truck

I think they are tube chassis race cars of some sort, not like a dude's F-150 pickup that he is just so talented he drove really, really fast. 🤣

Where is it? Some kind of park? Why?

Post - winter update. I think I am safely past the really cold weather here in Georgia. I put about 4000 miles on the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires. They look new. No cracking or other issues are visible. Tires are grippy and performed well no matter how cold once the tires warmed up...

Here is the thread on the tires if you want a fun and entertaining read. https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/michelin-ps4s-cracked-and-ruined.172848/

Just FYI, the Trofeos and the PS4S are nothing at all alike in colder weather. It is not even close. I know this from experience driving both in colder weather. I posted about that in the same thread. The Trofeos would slip even trying to get the car moving under normal or light...

I can't like both of them? And lots of other cars, too? I just like cars. I'd even love to have a 1969 Dodge Coronet RT with a 572 cubic inch engine with a 10/71 blower sticking out from a black hood. And that is neither a Ford nor a Chevy. Or a 1969 Camaro with a transplanted Gen 4 Coyote...

If that were true, folks would be doing the Dark Horse Whipple and simply adopting the GT500 cooling modifications. It isn't that simple. Note the speculation that the new Nurburgring time by the GTD was accomplished with a 1000 horsepower brought courtesy of . . . drum roll, please . . . a...
