This is accurate. Braking at the threshold of locking the brakes or ABS kicking in will give a shorter stopping distance than just stomping them and relying on ABS or skidding. In everyday driving I would venture to say for 99% of people, having the bigger brakes wouldn’t make a difference in an...

The Dark Horse and GT PP have the same brakes. The only difference is the DH has two piece front rotors. The DH and GT PP rotors are the same size and interchangeable.

Absolutely not normal. I’ve never experienced brake fade on the street or track in mine. Definitely get it in to the dealer to find out the issue.

I check my tires after every run on the track and have never had the tpms more than 1psi different than my gauge. The tolerance may be 3psi, but I’ve never seen that much difference.

And what was my question?

I didn’t take a picture, but the seats are sitting in my shop, and I can get a photo of the connection when I get home Friday.

I think it is just ventilation, not actually cooling.

Are you sure the seats have ducting with the A/C system? I’ve removed my premium seats and it was just two electrical plugs. There was no ducting connection.

High speed commuting and track use are two very different things. I would say it is not so much the vehicle speed as it is the constant on and off the throttle, repeated full throttle runs, and maintained high engine RPMs as well as temperatures. Hard acceleration followed by miles of sustained...

271 track miles including cool down laps. Around 4 hours of total track time.

I completed my first track event at Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham, Alabama this past weekend, and I was very happy once again with how my car performed. I'm still fairly new to tracking, and was in the Novice - Instructed group, but did get passed for solo driving for the second day...

True, the car doesn’t know the type of oil or its condition, but adjusting oil change intervals based on use is much more useful than just time or mileage. If I said I’m going to change every 3 months or 3k miles, I could have 8-10 track weekends on the car without an oil change, and hitch would...

I bought two cases of Motorcraft full synthetic from RockAuto for less than $6 per quart plus around $20 total shipping cost. Not a bad price overall.

It’s nice to know the computer is actually adjusting for real world use. It gave me the change oil notice on the last session of day 2 at around lap 10 of 15. I guess if I do a three day event I better plan on doing an oil change during it.

Thank you for sharing that section of the owners manual! I read the manual when I got my car, but didn’t read all the maintenance schedule info assuming it was all time based since I wasn’t tracking the car at the time. I looked at my manual it it says exactly what you shared. Looks like the...

It was most certainly at 100% when I changed the oil, because I reset it myself and checked it in the FordPass App as well. Oil life was at 50% after the first session of day 2. Day 2 it was dropping around 10% per 25 minute track session.

I just thought I’d share with everyone my experience, which demonstrates our cars are adjusting oil change intervals based on use. I changed my oil at 9,874 miles two weeks ago, reset the oil life to 100%, and today at 10,174 it hit 0% oil life. That is a total of 300 miles driven. Now, to...

Steeda builds quality parts in the USA which are track tested, they have actual humans answer the phones who are located in their US facilities providing both sales and post-sales support for purchase and installation, and they stand behind their products. If none of that matters to you, then...

Track edition will have no muffler, picture 1. Switchpath with have a muffler and valve on one pipe, picture 2. Also, if switching the exhaust mode in the car changes the volume, you have the Switchpath.

Thank you.! Good to know.
