Wrapping up this thread. Sold the Mustang. I'm continuing to race, in a FRS in SSC class. I have a Focus that I DD. I miss the HP. Signing off, Thenorm

The Subaru Crosstrek is hugely popular. I suspect the focus active will be too.

There's "competitively" and then there's competitively. To top the leader board, you either run the rivals 1.5 or the re71r. Interesting point on the difference between tires. On the new spec SSSSC class that requires the falken 615k tires, it is over a second slower on a 60 sec course vs the...

All of those would be good. My bridgestone's lasted for a hundred and fifty dry laps and about 6000 Street mile. PS I had to spray the tires with water between runs, especially with 2 drivers

I agree on the trucks. Imagine if they were a little lower, smaller, better frontal area, better aero. For the Mustang, lighter materials cost more and you risk not being affordable to the mainstream which is one of the Mustang strenghts

I'm one of those guys running 285 on the 9" track pack wheels. I race and win on them. Is it ideal, no, but I am limited in wheel width in my class. And more tire is always faster. If you are going to buy new wheels, consider 18" . Cheaper tires and better from racing w.r.t. weight and...

We're dumping on the NT 555. The NT01 is at least a track tire, and not a street tire like the 555

to the OP. you obviously have found tire rack, just look at the category ratings specifically the tire noise and comfort categories.

its not so much the time as the heat cycles. every time you heat the tire up hot, new sulphur bridges (vulcanization) for in the rubber making it harder. I notice my bridgestone start to get harder in about 6 months, at about 50% wear. but with easy driving, or less often driving, obviously...

if you like to track or go around corners. square for sure. Also as wide as you can fit. if you are big into drag racing or stoplight, stagger away. heres 285 on 19x9 sqaure on a stock '14 GT track pack

theres also a chome extension - Photobucket Hotlink Fix, also on Opera i think, anyways it fixes the links in your browser, regardless of what forum you are on.

I'm not sticking with my mustang. I bought because i wanted to learn to autox a high powered RWD car (previous was a Ford Focus on slicks). Its been 2 years, I'm consistently in the top 3 PAX at every event I enter, so I think I've learned what I wanted to. next year I'll be racing a lightly...

yep, wish we could block the posts from alot of vendors, would certainly clean up a bit around here.

that was my plan 45 unloaded upto 60 for max load. thanks. now back to our regularly scheduled programming

i've read your other posts. I'm on your side. Actually i have a truck tire question maybe you can advise on... Chevy silverado 1500 crew z71, door placard calls for 45psi. came with C load LT tires. since exact replacements are hard to find, I upgraded to E load LT. because I tow i didn't...

if you look at this year nat champs results https://dk1xgl0d43mu1.cloudfront.net/user_files/scca/downloads/000/037/986/2017_Tire_Rack_SCCA_Solo_Nationals_Results.pdf?1506006338 essentially all the class winners were on the Bridgestone RE-71R or the BFGoodrigde Rival S 1.5. also, not optimal...

i got tons of videos of autox in my mustang, and rallyx in my Focus. this is probably my best autox lap ever. At the Packwood Champ tour this year, this put me at 3rd in PAX out of 300 drivers. anyways all my mustang runs or in my build thread in the signature...

wet performance? Continental ExtremeContactSport 255/40R19 https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Continental&tireModel=ExtremeContact+Sport&sidewall=Blackwall&partnum=54YR9ECSXL&tab=Sizes

got a Schlage too. lifetime warranty which i exercised. the lock came with the house, so i diodnt have receit or anything, but it was honored. battery lasts at least a year.

i got these too. I put the code for the front door, garage door, and garage man door all the same, so it's easier to remember it all.

more camber.

Recently had some big autocross events. The Canadian Nationals were held in teh Vancouver BC area. There were only 3 people in F street, but we each end up in the top 6, so our class definately was at teh pointy end of the competition. I beat out my co-driver and a M3 to be the F-street...
