    Better buy, Mach 1 or GT500?

    Thanks for that Stan. I have the HP so I should have the Adjustable Struts. I can't see any suspension differences from the CFTP except for all the carbon fiber components and wheels? I did add the Steeda 2 point Trac Brace and IRS brace to my Mach1 after adjusting to track camber and found it...

    Hi Bill. This is an old conversation and I am probably hijacking it a bit. I have my Mach1 HP A10 but also recently got a 22 Shelby GT500 HP (not CFTP). I took it to The Ridge this weekend. In my Mach1 with a few track days under my belt, with GY Eagle SC 3R tires and track camber etc, my best...

    Purchased the Motive Power Brake Bleeder and flushed and bled the system with Motul 600 Racing Brake Fluid. Worked out better than I thought. I didn't jack up the car and place trestles on all 4 corners. Just did one wheel at a time. Got a scare at the end as the car would turn but not fire up...

    I also got the 3R's a few weeks back and went 305 all round. They don't like to be in the cold but when the heated up they worked out fine. I bet they will be even better in the summer.

    Completed my Race Driver Training Program this weekend. Even to got to 'race' it at the end which is part of the test. Intense but loads of fun especially in the wet.

    Installed my Volshlag brake cooling air deflectors. Replaced my smaller ones. Good suggestion from Bill.

    Tesla is in more trouble than just with their crashing stock prices!!!!

    What did you think of the dash for the Dark Horse? From photos it looks like 2 bulky screens and oversized.

    There you go. Managed to do my driver side without removing the bumper. Found the fog light delete 3mm thick and not brittle so by drilling it, I don't think I need a mesh or perforated plate to support it. Cut out a template and pre drilled the holes and followed up with the correct size...

    I suppose you are right about the oval. It just gave me some piece of mind for procrastinating. I was referring to drilling a whole lot of holes in the blank - like a perforated plate. So then put the blank back with the mesh as a base to keep hold in. By perforating the plastics pop-out plate...

    I might still drill the fog light blanks to make a grid backed by a s/s mesh. I wish there were grid or mesh options to purchase as I wasn't comfortable with it being wide open without some sort of grid to stop stones, debris etc. I know the right hand side one opens up directly to the air...

    Did my PPF full frontal this week. Some added protection for the track I hope.
