Yep. I just have to buy a good floor jack. Install jacking rails or jack pads. I have jack stands already. :like:
So, not so easily. :facepalm:
I had a great, heavy, 3.5 ton floor jack. I cut down a bunch of trees on my land, and I was using the floor jack to get the trees up off the...
S550 drivers report over at TrackMustangsOnline that they get something called Ice Mode when they use sticky tires and high friction brake pads on track. The ABS activates and reduces their braking ability. The S197 cars were really bad about it.

I will definitely check out the Youtube channel for prior cars being tracked with superchargers. I was unaware of this history of...

Not much to be done about the clutch if they want to keep the warranty - other than negotiating with Ford and Whipple.
But the tires - why are they using Nittos?
Well . . .
Vaughn Gittins is a "drifter," and he uses them on his drift car:
It is probably some sort of marketing deal.

Just internet BS. Feel free to lift it there and report back that I am wrong.

I like the stripes on the white and the personalized plate.
So did the wife want the Stage 2 Whipple and other modifications?
Has it been custom tuned, or is it running the Whipple canned tune?
