  1. MMR Differential Oil Cooler Kit Install- Update 9/21/24 Track Testing

    The temp sensor is installed from the factory on performance pack cars. I don't think non-pp cars have the sensor.
  2. MMR Differential Oil Cooler Kit Install- Update 9/21/24 Track Testing

    No. There is a sensor in the differential. I’ve circled it in red in the photo.
  3. Cutting Wheel Studs - Safe or No Way?

    Thanks. Vote cast. I think you likely would be fine with your suggested setup. I just view it from the standpoint of preferring to swap the studs out versus cutting them.
  4. Cutting Wheel Studs - Safe or No Way?

    Please don’t misunderstand what I’m saying as I am not claiming to be an expert. I’m not saying your suggestion is or isn’t safe, I’m giving the results of my prior research, and that is an extended stud with slip on spacer is safer than a bolt on spacer. I would say the main reason is the...
  5. Cutting Wheel Studs - Safe or No Way?

    Why not install extended studs and use a slip on spacer? From all my research when I was looking to add spacers, a slip on spacer is the better (safer/more reliable) option. I would hesitate in cutting the studs, personally.
  6. Dark Horse v. GT Performance Package Differences

    I had the exact same thoughts on the looks of the DH. To me the front of the DH looks ok on the dark colors, but I wanted race red, and I did not like the look, which to me resembled the front of a Honda Civic. I looked at the DH, but couldn’t justify the extra money for an automatic when I...

    Roebling Road Raceway - November 2024 Atlanta Motorsports Park - September 2024
  8. Roll Cage and Racing Seats?

    Update: After lots of research and considering options, I decided to go with the Cobra Nogaro seat with the Schroth Quick Fit Pro. I can run this setup without the roll cage, so it will be less hassle to just swap seats without having to pull out the cage.
  9. Brake Fluid Flush

    One thing I did fail to mention about brake service mode is not only will it generate DTCs if you remove components without it activated, but the brake system will not function properly either. The first time I removed the brakes without activating brake service mode, I had no problems removing...
  10. Brake Fluid Flush

    I’ve done a full brake fluid flush on my 2024 GT PP using a Motive pressure bleeder without putting it in brake service mode. I did it prior to realizing there was a brake service mode which can be activated. I have since bled the brakes with the service mode activated. I don’t know if it...
  11. Resale of S650 Ecoboosts going south?

    A couple of observations: 1. That is a Canadian vehicle and the pricing on the window sticker is not US Dollars. 2. The window sticker states “This vehicle not intended for sale or registration in the US.” So it’s not as big of a drop in price as it seems, and it’s not even supposed to be...
  12. Bronze Velgen VF5 Installed on my Race Red S650 GT

    Thanks. I had a hard time deciding between the black versus bronze, but I'm really happy with how the bronze looks with the race red. Be sure to upload some photos when you get your new wheels.
  13. Bronze Velgen VF5 Installed on my Race Red S650 GT

    Found a couple pictures on my phone from when I first installed the Continentals.
  14. Bronze Velgen VF5 Installed on my Race Red S650 GT

    I'll try to get some close up pictures this evening. Here's a photo where you can somewhat see how they fit in the wheel well. I am running a -2.9 camber in the front and -1.3 in the rear.
  15. Bronze Velgen VF5 Installed on my Race Red S650 GT

    From my research it is better to run a tire at the low end of the acceptable width for the wheel width when they will be used on the track. Here's an article by Grassroots Motorsports where they ran multiple width setups and they generally had faster lap times with the narrower tires (or wider...
  16. Roll Cage and Racing Seats?

    I'm only 47, but figure I better have my fun on the track while I can!
  17. Roll Cage and Racing Seats?

    I'm finally at the stage in life where it is feasible to have a car just for fun. I raised my kids and only had vehicles based on what was needed at the time with no concern for fun. Now that my kids are grown I am in a place where I can actually do some of things I never would have dreamed of...
  18. Roll Cage and Racing Seats?

    I appreciate the feedback and link to the article. I probably should have given more details of my plan. If I go this route, my intent is to go with the Watson four point roll cage which is a direct bolt in for the car and is removable. I plan to use the car almost exclusively on the track...
  19. Roll Cage and Racing Seats?

    I'm looking for some advice on whether to add a roll cage and switch to racing seats in my 2024 Mustang. I'm just doing HPDE events, but I have the leather (non-Recaro) seats in the car and am using the factory three point harness. I had been looking at swapping over to the Schroth Quick Fit Pro...
