    Just a quick update. I found a nice house to buy and it has killed my budget for now. :( Gotta think bigger picture though. I have recently swapped the springs on the car for the Ford Racing "P" springs, Koni str t struts/shocks, caster/camber plates. I dialed some camber (-2.7*) into the car...

    Seats would have to be put in before longtubes. I already know that I'm going to be thrown around in this car like a rage doll. I will likely do the same mods you guys did to the STU car. I cant tell you how much I like you guys weighing everything. It makes a big difference to me being able to...

    Mileage on the car was 45k and change. Condition of the car is excellent for a used car. I don't think I couldn't have found a cleaner car. Someone actually liked to keep the inside and outside clean. They also oddly enough maintained the car. I had a friend look on the Ford warranty history and...

    Gotcha. Didn't think You were able to in the ST classes. The rule book changes all the time. I feel like looking at fast track is the only way to know what's going on.

    Agreed. This was just to get a baseline of the car. Driver could use some weight reduction (215lbs) Lol! I don't think ballast is allowed in any of the SCCA autocross classes until it's basically a racecar per say (CP in this case). I'll have to double check.

    Thanks for the data Norm. I'm going to have step it up and buy some data analysis parts to see what the car is doing this year. It's night and day driving the cars back to back. You can feel how much stiffer the S197 chassis is over the noddle Fox platform car. Glad I didn't pay full retail...

    Yep. The plan with this car is just autocross. I have two mustangs and a daily so.....why not right? I was also thinking smaller brakes to save money and focus on the meaningful items (wheels/tires suspension upgrades). As far as upgrades go, I'm all ears. I never really set a budget for...

    Thanks for the advice Fair. I will be emailing you guys tomorrow. When you weighed the black car did it still have the spare? I honestly don't know why mine is so light. Lol! I'm happy about it though. I was hoping to keep the stock brakes as long as I can. I don't plan on doing track days...
