Great Group of NASA drivers who are TMO members who race in your State. You can always drop a personal note to CaptDistraction and AZBoss to ask questions about NASA and your car -- both are super knowledgeable. There are many other Arizona TMO Trackrats , so you will have a blast running your GT and always nice to know other Mustang Maniacs in your neighborhood.

Vorshlag Brake deflectors installed, picture just to show the size difference.

Dang, twice the size , going to bet it will direct twice the amount of air to the calipers! Great comparison pic for folks to get an idea before they they buy from one of the TMO sponsors.

SO I finally got around to checking my ride height and it was 24 ½ front and 24 rear (wheel lip to fender), there reverse of what I was looking for. I dropped the front to 24" and the rear went to 24 ¼" I'm thinking due to some weight transfer? Went for a drive it seemed to me a considerable difference in the way the front of the car handled, not as bouncy, more planted.... could ½ make that big a difference or is it just my head thinking it???

Went with SVE wheels and GY SCF1’s, 285’s F and 305’s R, only issue was the fronts were rubbing my FA coil overs, luckily I had 20 mm spacers for now, going to see if I can use something smaller but this will work for alignment tomorrow. Shed almost 10 lbs a corner.

Got my Apex order yesterday, SVE wheels will go to daily use…. You all better be right about getting 305’s on the front, lol

You all better be right about getting 305’s on the front, lol

I run 305's and 315's on the front. ENJOY!!!

Put JBA Shorty headers (Ceramic Coated) and the Ford Performance X pipe on, love the way it sounds with the stock mufflers. Went the shorty route because I didn't want to take a chance on getting codes thrown with catted long tubes..

The wing looks good , but that decal on the back window is worth 10 HP and increased downforce!
