    Motive power bleeder - air pressure only

    I've only used the Motive for air from day one. Pretty sure I've used the thicker gasket, and have even crimped down the tabs ever so slightly on occasion for a perfect seal.

    Need BEST pics of your car at track

    The original pic/file is 5Meg. Do you want me to email? I have others from the same vantage point, including one with a white 2012 Boss leading me. However in that one the "sausage" text isn't visible, but the entire span of the Speedville bridge is.

    Indeed! Here's one more from me. Road America's "sausage tunnel". :naughty1:

    Need BEST pics of your car at track

    I may well may not know what I'm doing, but the MAX I can attach is 800 pixels (Horiz or Vert). The resolution on the original files isn't an issue as they are huge, In case you want any of those. Also I'm struggling with attaching anything but .bmp files. Anyway, here are a slew more. It was...

    Axle overflow catch can system -- necessary on 2013+ GTs?

    Keep in mind that overfilling can be a messy proposition. For both the differential and the man trans. And I mean not just during the process of filling and maybe spilling a little, but after the fact, in operation, especially when you're tracking the car (hi temps). Ask me how I know. I've...

    Vorshlag 2011 Mustang 5.0 GT - track/autocross/street Project

    Terry (or anyone), do you consider a heli-coil fix to be a "good as new" repair to a caliper, or only a stopgap measure with the better/safest option (especially for track duty) being buying a new caliper? I just stripped one of the holes myself and am debating what to do.

    Midwest track day

    NT01s on TSW Nurburgring wheels. That surely makes the biggest impact wrt lap times. Suspension: Tokico D-Spec dampers, MM caster/camber plates, Eibach ProKit springs. I have a Steeda rear sway bar only because it was offered as part of a deal for a NOS Boss oil cooler. Front sway bar is...

    Midwest track day

    Yes, advanced. My best laps below. Not my favorite POV, but shows the lines well. I paid the extra $20 for GPS/data acquisition, so that will be interesting to see. These laps were edited together to show progression from 1:22.2 down to 1:21.7 EnQ0gKO46Sc

    Midwest track day

    Hmmmm.... Thanks for the heads up, devildog. Are you going? I was thinking of going on Saturday just to spectate the HRP track day at BHF, but maybe I'll get the old girl prepped for this instead. The weather is supposed to be nicer (cooler) on Sunday anyway. I think my NT01's have one...

    Looking for advice from experienced track go-ers

    I was going to ask for a report. Complete with pics/video too, of course. :) BTW, what track are you going to?

    Looking for advice from experienced track go-ers

    Best would be a high-temp/racing DOT4 fluid like the Motul choices from the reply above. But you may not be able to find on short notice, it's not going to be stocked at a typical auto parts store or dealership. Maybe... You can find ATE Super Blue fluid at a BMW dealership? Regardless of...

    Defeating traction control with the track pack

    To truly disable AdvanceTrac features entirely you have to pull the ESC fuse (#34 in the passenger side panel). Even after the "5-second" button routine there are still active sensors that can cut the throttle if you hit a certain angle/force/speed. I've encountered this on certain tracks'...

    Road America Track Day

    Same event: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmuTLpPThjE&feature=youtu.be Yes, the "unique" driving style/technique as evidenced by the chin cam lap opens myself up for plenty of criticism. Early downshifts, letting corner entry scrub some speed off, etc. But it was my best effort to avoid...

    Hooked on Driving events (Midwest/Great Lakes)

    Ha! That's kinda my issue with getting to Autobahn. Not through Chicago exactly, but on freaking tollways with the chance of heavy traffic any time of any day.

    Hooked on Driving events (Midwest/Great Lakes)

    Thumbs up for Road America. Beyond the driving experience, it's just a tremendous venue/facility. I'm just a casual HPDE'r, so if I have no work to do between sessions it's a great place to wander around and view other cars running, from multiple areas. That's what kills me about The Autobahn...

    brake flushing

    I should add that I use the Motive only for air pressure, I don't fill it with the brake fluid. That seems as though it would be wasteful and potentially messy.

    Roll Cages Road Race/Autocross/Driving Days vs Drag Race

    Not to direct the tread away from roll cage/bar discussion completely (because I have been thinking about an MM 4-pt), but since Dave mentioned a specific head and neck system, what are the thoughts on an R3 with stock seats, 3-pt belt, and no roll bar? I've heard anything from "it can only...
