  1. Wheel Spacers

    Iā€™ve got spacers from OP Mustang and also Apex Race Parts. Both are top-notch. No need to look elsewhere, IMO.
  2. HPDE/Track day camera

    Been using the Catalyst for a couple of years, love the simplicity. Only drawback is that you donā€™t get OBDII data. But when I start running in IMSA, Iā€™ll upgrade to VBox. šŸ¤£
  3. First Mustang, new to tracking, where do I get started

    Hi Greg, In this area you should look at Summit Point as well as VIR. clubs which run at VIR and SP include Chin Track Days, Hooked on Driving, SCCA, NASA, and Track Club USA. Also check out motorsportreg.com to find events and organizations.
  4. VIR digs…great place to stay!

    Hey all, a good friend of mine just finished this placeā€¦https://trackoutllc.com/ Itā€™s got 4 rooms with 2 beds, 4 rooms with 1 king, and ample space for trailers. Heā€™s a super generous guy who supports others in the community. If you are going to VIRā€¦please consider this for lodging.
  5. What's the optimal rim width for 275/35R20 tires?

    I remember being able to go over speed bumps. Those were the days. I can't go over a pencil now. šŸ¤£šŸ˜‚šŸ¤£
  6. other hobbies/passions other than the mustang?

    Iā€™ve gotten hooked on PRS guitars lately. Hope to add some more. But not if it cuts into track time.

  8. Best Spacers

    Iā€™ve run both OP Mustang and Apex Race Parts. Both are good. Iā€™ve used 5mm, 12mm, and 25mm.
  9. Caster camber plates! What are you using?

    No complaints on these after 3 years. No issues with slipping. https://groundcontrolstore.com/products/mustang-s550-camber-caster-plates
  10. What is the temp range of stock GT brake pads?

    I forgot to mention...I replaced the rear calipers and rotors with the ones that come on a GT. The discs that came on the car were like little pie tins with no cooling vanes.
  11. What is the temp range of stock GT brake pads?

    LUC is right, the standard calipers and rotors are smaller than optimal. Here is my experience with a similar situation: My 16-yo son has a 2019 EB Prem non-PP (lucky dude). My 20-yo daughter has tracked it twice (VIR and Summit Point) . I put Hawk DTC-60s on it. The main reason I chose that...
  12. What is the temp range of stock GT brake pads?

    If using G-Locs, go with at least a 12 in front.
  13. Linear Springs or Progressive Springs Whats Your Choice?

    Personally, Iā€™d go with a larger front bar before new shocks and springs. I think youā€™ll notice a handling change. Then decide how much stiffer you want the springs and dampers. Just my $.02.
  14. Linear Springs or Progressive Springs Whats Your Choice?

    You want progressives for the comfort. Linear will have a harsher ride. If you were going to be tracking a fair bit then the linear would be a stronger consideration. Also consider an anti-roll bar first and then see how you like the handling before springs.
