    Need opinion on new look for the ride

    The wheels look incredibly cheesey with those spinner things. I'd go with a different wheel all together, probably bigger too.

    Setup for Max Traction

    Definitely Upper & Lower Control Arms and some Mickey Thompson ET Streets (the DOT slick, not the Drag Radial). Take your front sway bar off too to help with weight transfer, free and easy to do. Takes about 20 minutes to jack the car up, unbolt the sway bar and let the car back down. :)...

    Sub Frame Connectors on 08 Vert?

    Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't the S-197's full chassis cars? I'm pretty sure that's the case and if so, there is no real need for Subframe connectors.

    Mustang GT optimized for drag racing

    4.10's > 3.73's. If you're going to do headers (big bucks!), do longtubes, not shortys. • FRPP 4.10's • Adjustable Upper Control Arm • Lower Control Arms • Pulleys (~10 RWHP) • JLT CAI + Tune (~20-30 RWHP) • Mickey Thompson ET Streets (Bias Ply, not the Radial) • Mid-Pipe (X gives slightly...

    A Good Combination!

    Grats! Your sig is very vague on your mods but I'll say before you even bother with a driveshaft or any other stuff go for Lower Control Arms and Adjustable Upper Control Arm!!

    Best wax to use on a new car

    So you CANT use a microfiber cloth with the ICE? I'm not very happy with the Wolfgang products (expected much more from an $80 kit). I may drop down to a budget system until I get Zainos.

    Wolfgang, switching to Zainos when I get my new bumper, spoiler and front lip.

    i rode in my friends 02 GT...

    Stock vs Stock, the win goes to the S197. I see several bolt-on 02-04 GT's running high 13's with DR's. With minor bolt-ons I run 12's with DR's. No offense to the New Edge and SN-95 GT owners but those cars were dogs in stock trim when compared to the LS1 F-Body, I never even considered...

    3.5 months = 11K miles!!!

    Ok, I don't feel as bad now. I'm contemplating picking up a 93-94 Lincoln Mark VIII to drive to and from work every now and then. They're cheap, have some balls on the highway, very comfortable ride and would be fun to turn into a mega sleeper with some spray!

    Yes, it's a 5 speed. I launched at 5500 that run. I've made A LOT (over 100) of passes with the car, testing numerous things like tire pressure, launch RPM's, burnouts, clutch slipping/dumping etc., and I've found the best method for me is... Drive around the water box, back into it. 1st gear...

    3.5 months = 11K miles!!!

    Yes, I was shocked when I looked @ the odometer today. I've had the car for 3.5 months now and I've already racked up 11k miles!!!! (I left the lot with 5.5) Granted I took a trip down the Florida Keys (over 400 miles round trip) and several pointless trips to this girl's house way out of the...

    1/4 mile results

    Keep in mind, every 1/10 off the 60' is good for 2/10 off of the ET. Good chance if he knocked that 60' down and turned off TCS and OD he'd see some better times. Is the car tuned?

    Single BEST and WORST about your 05+???

    Best: Best looking Mustang since the Fox Body came out. Worst: A backseat that a midget wouldn't be comfortable sitting in.

    Last track day

    You can do it without the gears. Honestly, I wish I'd have kept my 3.55's and netted a 12.9 with those but oh well. I have a buddy that ran a 13.094 Friday night with 3.55's, Intake & a Brenspeed Tune! (He of course was using my MT DR's) So 12.9 is definitely possible with your setup and some...
