I got a set of bogarts and MT ET streets I can throw on the car. Other than that the car is factory stock. I saw where some magazine got a 12.9x pass out of this car but no details on what that took. Im guessing wheels, tires, no spare, timing turned up with a splash of race fuel. Well thats my plan on trying to reproduce their claim.

My question is on shock adjustments. Im guessing that the front needs full loose on rebound and full to very stiff on compression.

The rears are what Im unsure of. Im guessing neutral but maybe a bit stiffer on compression only on the passenger side to combat the bit of body roll thats prone to mustangs. I dont know

Im want to do this at NMRA Bowling Green's True Street this October.

I think you would be better off asking road racing suspension questions with these guys on a 95r haha

when I bought my R the owner drag raced it.and since I am a road racer I knew I had to change the setting.Rear shockes were set dead soft on compression and mid for rebound.The front was mid to hard on compression and midsoft on rebound.Stan
