If this is what this is going to become, keep the thread. I thought I was on SVTPerformance, not Mustang6G. I figured my posts this whole time were fairly fair and balanced, especially given the fact that I'm not opposed to spending money to get this sorted since I was willing to pay for the...

Gentlemen, please. Let's agree to a few things. 1) the cars overheat, 2) the problem was not apparent prior to purchase, 3) the track package was not available in conjunction with the tech package, 4) owners will need to spend money to bring their cars to a level where it won't limp on track...

Indeed. I can't wait to go back this fall. Apparently Hooked on Driving will be having a three day event at Watkins Glen. I will have the transmission temperature under control by then, but I'm worried about brake pads. I planned on taking an extra set to change trackside, but apparently...

How odd. This is the first I've heard of it. I've got almost 14,000mi on the odometer and even took it to the track a couple of weeks ago. No issues.

When I was there we had three other GT350s, one in group C, another in group B, and one in my group, group A. Sadly, I barely saw the guy in my group. I just know I passed him once. He had a cooling kit installed on his '16 Tech Package and said he didn't experience overheating anymore. With...

Take a look at this page: http://www.theglen.com/Track-Info/Facility-Rentals.aspx It lists all the organizations that have rented out the track and when. You probably want to take a look at the driving school schedule, specifically. I'd suggest checking out those schools' websites and booking...

Absolutely. The only reason not to get track insurance, in my opinion, is if you have a dedicated track car, you own the car outright, and have the means to replace it.

It was about $700 for Watkins Glen for both days.

Didn't include the spoiler or diff cooler. Not equivalent, and still requires installation, which is not free. Honestly, I don't want to have this argument. This is getting ridiculous. Everybody is blaming tbe consumer because we "should have known better". That's bullshit and I didn't start...

I don't know where you're getting that from. The kit is $695 and the kit is meant to work with the GT350R transmission, which is $4000. That's the official fix from Ford. That's without labor. That is in no way equivalent to the cost of the Tech Package, especially since installing this kit...

What I'm looking at is the Ford Performance kit with the radiator, plumbing, etc (~$695) plus a Weldon K9200 racing pump. The kit is part number M-7095-M8S.

I think you're missing the fact that you literally could not option a car with the Technology Package and the Track Package in 2015 and 2016. Nobody wanted anything for free. As for mountain driving, I think you're thinking exclusively of the area you're in. About two hours from me I could...

It's about RPM, not speed. You could be doing 60 in second gear on switchbacks.

Ah, gotcha. I misunderstood. I went with Hooked On Driving (hookedondriving.com). I had only been to the track once before, also at Watkins Glen, two and a half years ago. This time I did a two day event and it made all the difference. It's funny you should mention my line because there was...

I borrowed my friend's GoPro Hero3 and the suction cup mount. I was running in group A with a coach. And no, I didn't change my brake fluid but I should have. The pedal got a bit spongy towards the end of the second day. I believe that was the brake fluid breaking down, because I still had...
