is there a limit on the size of the brakes? Could you go with an 8 piston brake?

Yes there is a limit. The Alcon front set up, which I believe is a 13" 4 piston, is the only thing allowed for the Mustang.

Thanks Darin, I will have to check the website and look up all the rules.

I think they may allow the Wilwood 6 piston setup also.

Here's one of our AS pics. That's me in the yellow car and Jim right on my tail in the maroon Mustang. I don't have any pictures with Bret's AS car but he ran a blue Mustang. I got out of racing while Bret and Jim moved up to GA.

You can't quite make it out across the back of my car but it says "Salesmans Demo". That used to draw alot of comments!!

This is great stuff, thx for the thread. I enjoy watching all the road racing on the Speed Channel. Now, I will keep my eyes opened for you guys. Good luck!!

awsome pics! It looks like I am on the right track with my CCW rims and fluidyne heat exchanger!

I am sorry if I missed this earlier, but what motor oil do you run in the 03 motor? And do you ever change the blower oil?

mobil1 in the motor and blower oil? whats that?



J/K the blower oil was new when we started so that we can keep tab on when it needs to be changed.
Thanks!

did you see how hot the tailpipes got?:rockon:
this thing will shoot flames out the tailpipes!:burn:

thanks for the info. I can't wait to see/hear the car in person, I would love to see those flames from the pipes.
