    Cone 502 Racing - 2015 Mustang GT/PP Build

    Time to open up a new chapter in Cone 502 Racing's book. As some of you know, the 2015 Mustang GT arrived on the 18th of August and this last weekend (22nd and 23rd) there was a pre-nationals Test'n'Tune and the Solo Points 6 event. The car was by no means "prepped" but it was necessary to get...

    How close is too close? - Caliper to Wheel Clearance

    So the 2015 has arrived finally and I was testing the wheels I have laying around. 18x10 SVE Drifts most certainly DO NOT fit as the brake caliper hits the barrel of the wheel on the 15" 6 pot brakes. 18x9 ET45 Enkei PF01 DOES fit with a 5mm spacer (wheel lugs still have 5.5 turns till fully...

    Cone 502 Racing #23 STU 2009 Mustang GT

    I figured I would go a head and make a new thread for this that better reflects the direction the car is going and updated classing. Many of you here are familiar with my rather lack luster performance in STX, so expect more "interesting" yet equally lack luster performance this year! :D Just...

    Tire Pressures, Tire Widths, Wheel Widths, and Contact Patch Area

    Soooo... help me wrap my head around this tire calculator nonsense: http://bndtechsource.ucoz.com/index/tire_data_calculator/0-20 If I put in my current wheels/tires (18x9's, 265/40/18 RS3V1's (97W)) and my desired wheels/tires (18x11's, 285/35/18 RS3V2 (101W)) I get less contact patch area...

    Lets Talk: SCCA and Poly Bushings

    I wanted to have a discussion on Poly bushings in control arms for SCCA autocross in ESP and STX/STU (Eventually). For those outside the SCCA, the problem is that the SCCA does not allow the lower control arms to be replaced with anything. The bushing rules for ST are: A few problems to...

    Shock Dyno Plots, Shock Forces vs Spring rate

    This is kind of an interesting topic to discuss here. I recently acquired my Ground Control Coilovers (Runs and hides from Sam and Terry [decision was made based on quality vs price, please don't kill me ]) and asked for shock dynos. I also know the spring rates (440/200). Now my...

    My STX 09 autocross future and questions

    Greetings S197 forum! Yesterday was our last Solo Points Event at the Lincoln Air Park - Nationals site and we got to run the West Course from the 2012 Solo Nationals which was an absolute blast to run. I haven't shaken that hard from an autocross event since my first two events at LAP-N...

    A matter of sway bars

    Among the many things I learned yesterday at the autocross (including the fact that Chris Conant's 1988 M3 is 4.5 seconds faster than me =\...) is that with my set up, I'm still getting a fair amount of push. To the point of having probably a little too much grip in the back that throttle on...

    New user from Nebraska with 09 Candy Apple GT!

    Greetings, I figured I should introduce myself and maybe become a bit more than a lurker. The name is Chris (you can call me that or Whiskey, I'm not bothered by either) and I live in Nebraska and I drive an 09 GT in Dark Candy Apple Red (Ford's color code name). Current mods are bleak...
