Thanks for the responses, and thank you for that video.
Interesting about the 18 x 12 wheel with the 315/30ZR18 Yokohama tire - I see it fits over the caliper, but could you actually run it on the track on that Dark Horse?
Since they ran it on their S550, I guess I will have to do more...
There are definitely some 18" that will fit over it, as they design the barrel to extend away from centerline (so that the barrel gives more clearance than the 18" rim area would indicate, if that makes sense), but I do not know if any of the manufacturers will guarantee that it fits your Dark...
I accidentally used it yesterday and then felt this irresistible urge to go shopping and update my wardrobe's unfashionably out of date clothing style
Here I am this morning after getting ready for church.
Don't try the drift brake!!!!
I lived in Deutschland from 1987-89 and drove a 1981 Chevrolet Camaro Z-28 with T-tops, into which I had swapped a larger engine with a large cam (very lopey idle), headers and a Holley 4 barrel with a good intake, and improved cylinder heads. Folks would stop doing whatever they were doing...
I have never used it for parking or drifting.
If I ever do, I am afraid I will have to start wearing sideways baseball caps and sport jerseys for shirts while replying "Word" whenever somebody says something I agree with, and every other sentence will have to be, "Know what I'm sayin'?"
On Mustangs, with the different width of the front and rear tracks (backspacing is 20 some odd mm different required, more on front, less on rear), guys running 10-11" wheels who want to be able to rotate tires are using spacers so that the wheels can all have the same backspacing. Leave the...
What I mean is, install them now with the Roush tune, then go get custom tuning when you want to do so.
You will pick up power on the Roush tune and will pick up some more power when you do the custom tune.
A win, followed by another win.
Don't wait for your mods to be complete. Track it now. Then you get to see whether your mods do anything on the track, and your driving will be better in this car so you will know the difference. Plus you are missing out on a lot of fun in the right here and now.
Your quarter miles were at the Whipple tuned rpm limit, right? They were the only tune in town until this August. What was the shift point at full throttle?
Porsche has the same problem on Goodyears.
Wow. :whew:
"The launch-control-assisted GTS T-Hybrid accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.6 seconds in our hands. The quarter mile? 10.7 seconds at 129.7 mph. You don’t need to be even 20 years old today to . . .
