[QUOTE="Splatter, post: 13237530, member: 138814"] I do appreciate all the good advice and insights etc. I Do not think I am anywhere near ready to stick myself into a car that can hurtle around corners way too far above my skill set. Little by little I will keep trying to get better. Was happy to see that my times are very much more regular at the last track school As mentioned many times, my biggest *mechanical" issue is brakes, I am not sure if skill will help that much with fade, my track really only as two hard braking points. Living down here in Chile means parts take a month to get here at best, sometimes two. I am sure I can get my time down substantially just by going back to the OEM pads and putting the extra track tutoring to use. The HPS pads I used were a very bad move on my part. Ford has no Brembo mustangs in Chile, so no pads. Funny, but am seeing lots of GT's with crunched front ends due to stock brakes. August is my next time trial, I will post the results with my simple bolt ons and then see where it takes me. Hopefully I can get below 51 sec. I know I will get yelled at,,, But, anyone know of a roll bar that allows the rear seats to be used?? Or at least that has bolt in sections for the track?? The Kids love the car too! I saw some a MaximumMotor sports roll cage that might do the trick.... Will look at a racing seat as well [/QUOTE]
