    Thoughts After HPDE #2 in the 3V

    Oh definitely. I love learning about driving dynamics and car mechanics. So I've been enjoying soaking up knowledge and learning how to drive faster

    S197 s197hpde3v

    I would adjust the camber before the sway bar if you feel like the car is pretty neutral. I unfortunately didn't have a thermometer to read tire temps, but I ran -2.8 with 0 toe and had very even tire wear; cut off sharply on the shoulders of my tires because my suspension is too squishy and the...

    Thoughts After HPDE #2 in the 3V

    This past weekend was my 2nd HPDE with my 2006 Mustang GT. This event really highlighted some weak spots in my current setup and probably my own driving, but I'll post my fastest lap video later on for y'all to give feedback. Before getting into it all though, a big thank you to Track Club USA...

    First Track Day with my 3V

    I have MM C/C plates and camber bolts in the spindle. I ran camber this weekend at like -2.5/-2.8 and toe at 0. I have the Steeda competition sway bar up front on full stiff and stock rear sway bar since I'm on a square wheel/tire setup. Honestly, I feel like the car drives pretty neutrally. As...

    First Track Day with my 3V

    I was just about to do my follow-up write up for all of this later tonight since I just had my second day at VIR this past weekend. But I did get the Steeda struts since last event and kept my FRPP K springs on them. After this weekend I have realized that I can very easily out drive those...

    First Track Day with my 3V

    Yessir!! I also got a pretty decent video of you doing some landscape work out in the field from when you spin out if you'd like it! I posted in the FB page if you're on there. But can send to you directly as well.

    Lap Time Thread

    I was there on Saturday and was drooling over your car all day. So so sick. Easily my favorite car to show up. Cool to see you here.

    First Track Day with my 3V

    I have been a long-time stalker of TMO and only recently started posting and being active in the forums. I've seen you post and have looked through bits and pieces of your build thread before. I'll have to dive a little deeper in. Ideally, I'd love to turn this car into a full track car...

    First Track Day with my 3V

    Yeah, I was happy enough with them for their price point and what I am doing. I'll probably invest in brake cooling ducts before hopping up to another set of pads. I even added some NACA ducts to my Christmas list to build into my front bumper for said brake cooling lol. It'll probably be...

    First Track Day with my 3V

    I am making this as a sort of recap for myself after my first HPDE with my 06 GT. But I would love for anyone to read through and give input and suggestions, especially on the next modifications :)On 11/12 I attended the HPDE hosted by SVT Cobra Club and Track Club USA at VIR. The first thing...

    S197 3V Track toy

    Yessir. I've raced on track before in 24hrs of Lemons and Lucky Dog (kinda similar to champ car, but less competitive). My family/friends and I have a 97 crown Vic on coilovers with big brakes and full track prepped for those types of amateur racing leagues. That's where I started. I'm out of...

    S197 3V Track toy

    It's the Track Club USA and Shelby Club of America event. It's Nov 12-13th. I'm planning on the 12th, but I may have to do the 13th.

    S197 3V Track toy

    Thank you! I am a long-time lurker but a first-time poster and just now actually trying to get involved on here. I have my first HPDE with this car in November at VIR and I am working to get prepped!

    The EBC Brakes Giveaway Returns! Oct'22

    I would combine my two favorite cars by Voodoo swapping a 911 GT3. The GT3 would be making around the same power as it would with its flat 4, but with a much cooler engine imo.
