    falken 615 tire pressure

    Don't waste your time with an IR temp gun. It only reads the surface temp and will give you meaningless data. You will want to use a pyrometer with a probe that sticks into the tire at least 1/8". Additionally, pull into the hot pits with hot tires and take the temps. Not after a cool down lap...

    Lower control arm relocation bracket install

    Don't know how fussy you guys are about alignment, but to me it is very important. A few things you might want to consider if you have adjustable RLCAs and PHBs: 1. In relation to bushing type/material, us a protractor when setting pinion angle. 2. When "centering" the rear axle with an...

    AR Auto Service Boss 302 - Portland Auto Show

    Those wheels look just like a direct knock-off of the BBS racing wheels.

    BOSS 302S FLCA Bind

    We spent the better part of Saturday on these darn bushings. Had them on and off so many times that we wore out a set of bolts. Whoever made these for FRPP must have been using a yardstick as a measuring device. This pertains to both the set on the car and a brand new set of arms and bushings...

    BOSS 302S FLCA Bind

    A question for those of you running the BOSS 302S FLCA (M-3075-RA) with the Competition Front Bushing Kit (M-5638-C): With no other suspension components attached to the arm, and moving the arm up and down within its range of motion, how much "bind" do you have and what do you believe is...

    S197 Chassis Coyote Swap Endurance Race Build/Blog

    Is it possible to get a little more info about the "machined" rear calipers that removes the threads, I'm guessing, so that they don't have to be turned in on pad change? TIA.

    Did you weld on the shock bodies with or without guts inside?

    Right Side Net

    Dave, thanks, great info. Had the Circuit, now in a Pro-ADV. I agree with you on the halo containment. BTW-the Pro-ADV will give you a little more headroom from the cage in a Mustang. It's just the way they mount, meaning where the bosses in the seat are comparing the two. I'm a little on...

    Right Side Net

    You are correct in stating that I need to be more specific. Believe me, I was cringing when I wrote "stuff" because I am usually very specific and meticulous. The ambiguity comes from not really being able to see under the dash, and as you know, it is kind of tight under there. The car only...

    Right Side Net

    For safety, I am trying to install a right side net in a track prepped 08 Mustang GT. As I understand it. the forward net strap goes through the vent in the dashboard just to the right of the guage cluster and then goes forward and ties off to the left-to-right upper cross bar inside the dash...

    GT500 Sway Bar Rear Endlinks?

    According to your last post, you didn't get anything at all out of this thread. You might want to consider listening to Norm, he knows what he is talking about. Changing a suspension component usually has to do with its engineered specs and how that matches related components, and the car as a...

    Forgestar Wheel Failure?

    What I don't get is, how is that "awesome" as he said in the video? That wheel could have outright killed him or another driver.

    So What Tires are Currently Available?

    OK, the A7, too. Some do use this tire for short sprint races. JK. Don't forget the autocrossers.

    So What Tires are Currently Available?

    I have a call in to the head Sports Car Product Manager at Hoosier (for a while now) to make the R7 in 305/35-18. cmash, I am with you. This is a very practical size for a race tire and would be especially suited to/for the R7, a DOT rated tire. If available, they would sell a ton of them...

    What coil-overs should I buy? Poll inside

    @modernbeat- I hear you, and I understand. But that is not what I am after. @El Tortuga- again, 18 x 11 with 315, not 305s. Sure, offset and backspacing is important, but what everyone is forgetting about is "overall section width", of a tire, and futhermore, it changes on differnt rims...

    What coil-overs should I buy? Poll inside

    I run in SCCA GT2, or could run T1, and CP. The series does not "require" that I run the same offset or backspacing front and rear. I am allowed to run up to an 11" wide rim, but must use a DOT tire. With that being said, I am not a pro race team with an unlimited budget, or an abundance of...

    What coil-overs should I buy? Poll inside

    @JerryZ-Since the Vorshlag wheels in that size have been out so long, I didn't think that was classified info any longer. If so, I apologize for asking an inappropriate question. It just seems that other manufacturers have already roughly copied or did their own designing. I realize that...

    What coil-overs should I buy? Poll inside

    @zeroescape- On your Vorshlag F14 18x11 wheels, do you happen to know what the backspacing is?

    Running no rear sway bar on track?

    I believe it was mentioned before in this thread, but something to seriously keep in mind and consider is whether of not the driver uses the curbing on the track, and to what degree. This is in reference to spring rates, but also alludes to shock settings, being a function of the spring rate...
