After having a loaded GT premium 401A with perf pack I ordered a 600A DH with Recaro's and the handling pack due to the value proposition. Really not missing much except for trim on the dash, the security pack and what became for me was annoying lighting effects.
Gr8ful is correct here, yes you will receive an email from Ford Performance confirming your registration, and less than 24 hours after that I received an introductory email from the coordinator at the ford performance racing school where the event is held again confirming my personal information.
I get fuel starved when less than 25% out at the track too, but that's primarily because it's not computing the MPG's properly, so it shows a disingenuous amount of gas on the gauge when you're actually empty or running on fumes. Just keep her above 50% and you won't have any issues.
Loved the write up, and I came back with similar take aways since I was big on the S550's, Mach-1 and especially the GT350. I was on the fence about getting a DH when they first came out because of the price differential with mark up so I ended up with the GT back in august of 23' while cross...
Double check on when they torqued the vertical links because they should only be snug when the suspension is unloaded so they can move to a natural position once you put weight on the wheels then torqued while on ramps or a lift. If they did the links without the suspension loaded it can create...
I have the same questions Skye does. Are these pictures with the vehicle flat on a surface and not on jacks? If so, based on observations it doesn't appear to be torqued at ride height (with the suspension loaded). Re-clocking the bushings will only help if it's at the new ride height. If you...
Everyone complains about #1, but it's regulatory. Not happening any time soon. Love your write up btw I have similar first world problems with the car. @Lakersfreak
beautiful! love that spec on convertible. I'm ported over from 6G as well although I still like to surf the forums over there. Lots of knowledge. Welcome!
That's a guess we can revisit in two-three years since you can't sell your GTD before then or auction it. You can't stop collectors from collecting. hell, I still know people with first model year C8's untouched and looking back in hindsight they depreciate faster than C7's. Until then tangibly...
I encourage everyone to follow Tomster on the 6G forums as he will track his, I'm sure.

I understand this point of view, but at the road courses you see a lot of variety so it's not entirely uncommon to see Porsches, Viper's, ZR-1's, Ferrari's, BMW's all in the price range of 100,000 - 200,000 and I'm positive I'll see a GTD out there in no time.
Let's see the ring track time first before we complain about power. The materials, aero, dry sump and transaxle might be well enough. The GT3 RS does 6.50 with roughly 500hp and it's still faster than a C7 ZR-1, C8 Z06 and maybe a C8 ZR-1.
This conversation just never ends lol people did the same thing to the Mach 1 on the 6G forums until later they found out technical differences and how it got a good amount of Shelby hand me downs. Which has not changed with the DH. The refinement the DH has over the GT will not be seen on the...
Spot on!
BTW I believe that's S550 being shown not S650. The geometry on the hub there with the vertical links is significantly different between the two platforms in the rear suspension. Everything else is the same as far as I've seen in my comparisons.
