I expect persons still enjoy seeing your car, especially on an island. I cannot imagine that there are that many driving around there.

I do not think it is compliments, so much, as folks just excited to see my car. It has been years since I had a car where folks would drive up beside and shout things and roll down their window and give a thumbs up. My last one was a 1966 Pontiac GTO (many years ago). I was a little shocked...

What happened to your original that you needed to replace it?

Please keep us updated on what you decide, installation, driving after, etc.

Then do it! I think it looks good, but the important thing is that you do and that you will enjoy it. With it being removable, there is no concern that a future buyer will be turned off, so there is literally no downside.

Are you still under warranty? Stage 1 is 810 flywheel horsepower and, if your local dealer installs it as you propose, will maintain a warranty (not quite the same as the original warranty, though, so research closely). Stage 2 is 875 flywheel horsepower, you are on your own if you throw the...

Uh, oh. We have a conflict. Normally I look on RockAuto.com to determine OEM parts, but neither of these two is listed as the equipment for a Dark Horse handling package, and I cannot figure out what is the OEM pad. Usually it is pretty easy to figure out on RockAuto.

Black! :thumbsup:

Is this backwards? I thought these wheels and tires were the exact OE sizes as the handling package, and therefore there should be no change when swapping them out. What am I not getting?

Is the OE matte, satin, or gloss? You have both sets, right? OE and replacement?

Worst explanation ever. It is racism basically because you want to declare it so, even if the basis for the premium difference is more factually sound that the policy premium differences for age or sex. Basically it is just off limits because you want it to be, which is not a very sound basis...

Why is that racism? I have no idea if it is true in New Zealand, but how is that different than using age or sex for significantly different risk? Is that ageism and sexism? I am assuming there is a significant difference for purposes of the discussion.

So this was May 5. Two months later, is it repaired? Does it drive well?

Note he is in New Zealand. It may be very different there.

Understeer was the very first discovery upon the Gurney Flap's initial use in racing by Gurney: "The first application of the flap was in 1971, after Gurney retired from driving and began managing his own racing team full-time. His driver Bobby Unser had been testing a new Len Terry early...

FYI, the flap in that link generated downforce not of 60kg but 110kg, or 242 pounds, almost twice what you posted. Your points are otherwise clearly understood, though, and it makes me wonder whether a really good driver could post better, same, or worse times on a high speed road course with...

Sorry to post a superfluous discussion, but I have tracked the car, and I intend to do so again, and given the aggressive nature of the gurney flap, I was genuinely curious whether it did anything at all, especially since it is bolted to a spoiler which is bolted down to a trunk lid. gbadger...

No gyro or anything?

You are saying these are the Ford OEM pads?

It is not a country. It is an insurance company. So, what do you do if you are the company CEO, and your company will sustain a loss if you do not act. Your actuaries give you the following information: Group A is 70% of our policy holders. They account for 10% of our claims. Group B is...
