Controlling Wheel Spin

Feathering. Which like previously stated is practice. And just so you know none of our stangs had tcs/esp till the later new edges. But anyway get better suspension and tires. But with power still won't help if you can't drive. And I think you meant when you are out in a simulated track in mexico

I see no mention of gears in your sig so I guess you got the OEM tall raito
of 273's or 308's

If so ... when you loose traction it is harder to control with tall gears
as opposed to
Steep gears such as 373's and the like

Example:

Ever broke the tires loose in 2nd gear on a wet street or in the rain

You try to back off the skinny pedal but not much happens
You back off more but ... still ... you keep spinning
Finally ... you back all the way off ... you quit spinning

Do the same again in 1st gear
You find you got more control in a gear that is steeper

Its like that

Yes ... it is easier to break em loose with steep gears
BUT
You have more control in such situations

Get some gears in that thing

It'll make the car feel a thousand pounds lighter

The one mod that delivers the most noticeable gain of em all :Word:

You'll have more ... WAY MORE
of what you say in last part of your sig

Not sure bout the time but i run 410s once you run them ull never go back SOO much fun. I run a 275-50-17 tire and run around 2800 rpms on the freeway at 70 mph i average around 20 mpg on the freeway somtimes better if I have a light foot

I would not get to deep into other mods unless your going to address the tire issue. You can do all the improvements you want but with using street tires your still going to spin like a MOFO. Its not fun unless you can dump the clutch at 5,000 RPM's and get thrown back in the seat so hard that you have a hard time shifting into second.

The surefire recipe to cure the tire spin is good tires, practice, and 1979-2004 Ford Mustang Pro Series Chrome Moly Rear Suspension Kit - UPR Products

Good, sticky tires. Warm those tires up in your burnout. Its fun too lol
