I'm the kind of guy that doesnt really believe in Suspension.I never even considered it. a guy onse told me that there is no use of having alot of HP if you cant put it to the ground. Here is my question.....
If two Mustang completely STOCK , same model same everything, raced . The only diference between the 2 is that one of them has a bit of Suspension upgrade.Lets say LCA and UCA and maybe full length subframe connecters. Will the mustang with the slight suspension upgrade actually win i know the handling will improve, but will it actually win because of the suspension upgrade???

Unless you like smoking your tires and boating around town, i suggest you get a few suspension mods to make the car a little bit more drivable

Nothing like flying down the street at 85 mph fearing bumps and turns in a stock mustang with stock brakes and suspension. WHATTT A RUSHHHH
