Honestly, I think we are just messing around on these aftermarket springs until we go to coilovers. I haven’t made the jump yet, since I’m still undecided if the car is going to continue its development versus buying an actual built track/race car.
Here’s a couple of laps at ECR last month. Both in the 2.06 range. Hitting traffic and cold/green track, so should easy knock some time off that. I’ll be back there 2-3 March with CHIN to see what I can do.
I go with the paint marker pen on the tires method. I’m running various sets of @Apex Wheels and tires, so I’ve been swapping them around like crazy. Trying out Pirelli DHF, Michelin SM8/9. Then I’ve got a wet set of Michelins, and finally a set of SC3r on 19” wheels. Needless to say the 19”...
Also the splitter is still not as low as I need it, so no, it hasn’t taken a beating. Plus @flyhalf sent me some awesome splitter protection widgets, which I’m using on the front corners.
Hey, yeah they are still a little soft. Front on corner turn in is a little vague, but that could be something some sway bar adjustment might help. Running medium setting front and rear on the BMR bars.Rear spring feel isn’t so bad though, I’ve only got 2 days testing on this setup. So it’s...

Well I sold my regular SM10 to switch to the forged. 4lbs per wheel is a big chunk of worthy weight loss on wheels. Is it worth throwing more in the money pit? Sure!😂
New hubs for the Mach 1. Decided it was time to go true square setup so I can rotate wheels across the car.OPMustang hubs, extended studs and spacers. New Apex VS-5RS wheels.Fueled by Modelo….These wheels are super light, not far off 4lbs lighter per wheel than the SM10s I have been...
That’s all good info, thanks for chiming in. I’ll be trying the plug, along with looking at the bars. I’ll most likely pull the factory ones out and go with some adjustable ones to experiment. Suspension changes are next on the list anyway…..venting and aero is the current project, then I’ll...
This sounds very relevant since during the early days of the car in 2021 I swapped out the base spec springs and rear bar the to the HP spec, just thinking I was going to benefit from the handling pack setup. It was basically slightly stiffer springs, but a very heavy solid rear bar, vs the oe...
Ive never noticed the dash lighting up when the power loss happens, that being said, I'm exiting a corner that requires attention outside the car, and not looking inward.And yes I run track mode and TC off hold for 7 seconds.
