As a friendly gesture and a way to interact with the TMO forum (and because its almost Christmas!), we would like to give the members here a chance of winning a free set of pads, front and rear for their Mustang. One randomly selected forum member can choose any pad from our entire range, including the new RP series race pads!

To participate, share with us below a photo of your car and a memory of your favourite time driving it. It could be the day you dropped a couple seconds off your personal best lap time at your local track, a summer day zipping through the countryside, or a trip you took with your loved ones and family.

The lucky winner will be randomly selected and announced within a few days after the closing date of 1st January 2022 and details will be posted on this forum within a few days of the closing date.

Please be aware that this thread may appear in more than one section on the forum and one winner will be selected from the whole forum, not a winner per thread.

At last! After years of work, finally getting the car to the point that in can run with Porsche's. Sept 26, 2021 with a PB of 2:04.645 @ AIC Codegua, Chile, with a poll in category. Chariot axles can still scoot!!

Any time I’m at the track is my favorite

 

[EBC Brakes]

Thanks @Mad Hatter and @JeffV8 for starting off the thread messages, a couple of beauties there for sure!

No good on track photos so this will have to do. Hmm favorite memory, probably the feeling after my car completed its second event after an engine rebuild and I was pretty sure I did it right.

 

[c_reber]

Chillin with friends and trying to go faster is always a good time.

 

[byronj]

I'll play this game. Too many memories to post. But at the end of the day I get to play racecar driver with some friends and meet new friends.

 

[SlowstangGT]

Taking turns dogfighting with @byronj at Sonoma Raceway was pretty fun! But I think the most fun memories are watching unsuspecting passengers get shocked when they realize Mustang's can actually corner

I built this "$500" 24 of lemons car to expose more of my friends to motorsports.

First year one of the guys really just wanted to hang out - maybe bump around the track a few times slowly. He gained some confidence and started pushing it. Almost lost the rear around one corner but had a nice save. When he got out of the car he had a big grin ear to ear. Success!!

Favorite time driving i would say this year in September at buttonwillow, was the 1st time the car finally started behaving like i wanted. What a feeling to turn the steering wheel and actually have the car turn lol. But everyday at the track is a great day, get to do what i love with friends who share the same passion and interests.

This has got to be one of my best memories or proudest Dad moments! My 19 year old son at his first HPDE driving solo after I signed him off

I cant think of a truly "favorite" time, but I can think of perhaps the most meaningful to date for me. It would be the day this photo was taken:


This was taken in early March 2021 during my second ever HPDE event, and was the morning after buying this car and hitting the track with paper plates and 40 miles on the odometer. Its a story for another day as to how a wild twist of fate and circumstances allowed that to happen, but I'll just say I feel blessed and grateful.

I lost my dad to rapid onset leukemia in 2020 and it had been a royal struggle to cope. Tracking is something I had always wanted to do with him but the finances were never there to support it. When life threw us a bone in early 2021, it made things possible and we jumped head first into the track world - but it still felt bittersweet despite how much fun it is. The day the above photo was taken was the first time in a very long time that I felt at peace with a sense of closure. I still get that same feeling of calming peace and closure to this date anytime I am in that car - its hard to explain.

I have since learned, and continue to learn, quite a bit on both the driving side and mechanical side with this car, and have put a lot of work into transforming it into the track car I want. Every day is a new favorite moment

some great memories and photos here, really enjoyed looking through them!

Not so hard to understand. We lost mom the day before the GT500 invite event at Autobahn. Getting in a car and concentrating just on the drive was therapeutic. After 15 years of hospitals and close calls, closure is important. I miss my parents deeply. Driving is a good departure from some of our realities.

Retirement is more fun than I thought it would be!

 

[Vettel-ish]

This year Blackhawk farms. Worked the whole year to try and get down to a 1:22. Last trip finally got it. Such a great feeling. Always working on your craft and improving.

 

[KazarS197]

I think this may be the first time ever driving down pit lane and thinking - I can't believe this is really happening!

 

[Alex_murrica]

Hands down my favorite track memory to date. Taking my dad out for a rip at Watkins Glen. It took him a week to wipe the smile off of his face.

 

[mustang5o]

Every year at the Mustang Roundup at Motorsports Park Hastings (Nebraska) is a good time.

 

[Steve68Cougar]

This is Gingerman earlier this year at the Mohawk Track Experience. It was great to see some friends I hadn't seen in a while.
