[QUOTE="Lumpydogs, post: 5893093, member: 10306"] I don't have as much experience as some of the track dawgs on here but I do have a 2001 cobra that has been going to the track for the past six years. [B]The track tires (r compound) will make the biggest difference.[/B] Springs help out but the track purpose springs are a bit rough for daily driving. I ran with the Eibach Pro-Kit for both track and street driving with great success. (psst. they are for sale $90 shipped). IRS, control arm and differential bushing replacement are supposed to be a big improvement with keeping our IRS butts glued to the track. Bruce (ac427cobra), sells a great set that is less expensive then other on-line kits. Just curious, has your car developed a significant clunk when shifting gears? My cobra did after a few track outtings. I found out this past fall that it was due to worn out (burnt up) stock differential bushings. My diff was literally clocking 3/4" under heavy load (i.e. shifting gears) My 4.10 gear set really heats up the diff on track. I have spoke with other 99-01 cobra owners who developed the clunk even with stock 3.27 gear sets. For a list of my mods check out [url]www.lumpydogmotorsports.com[/url] go to "About Us" then "Mods" I hope this helps [/QUOTE]
