Alright. Anyone who tracks (roadcourse) car knows it's a gruesome balance between keeping your car streetable (and stock in appearence) yet performance driven on the track.
What I am trying to do is get as much an edge possible without going too far. Currently the Ford Racing kit on my Shelby is very nice. It's nearly 80% of what I am loooking for. What I am considering, and this is where I'd like opinion, is putting the best adjustable coilover on the car I can find and wider wheels.
For coilovers I want something that I can set to their softest and highest height (which should put me right around where my FRP setup is now) when not at the track. And then when I take my car to my local Stang shop so they can slam it to the ground and set the dampeners to race mode.
For wheels I want to go with the Shelby Torque Thrusts because they look the same as stock nearly. They're just the meaner and wider version that will allow me to put more rubber on the road and generally make the car look even more bad ass.
So anyone have a suggestion for a good adjustable coilover set up? And if I do that what other suspension wise will I be looking at for this? I figure which such an agressive lowering for race day I'm going to need an adjustable panhard bar and upper diff mount. Anything else? Driveshaft going to be an issue? I know I will need some CCPlates up front ideally as well.
Thanks!
