    '12 AC Clutch Fail?

    Hi guys, How likely is it that the AC compressor clutch only fails? I was driving home yesterday slowly, AC was blowing cold. Then I heard kind of a "wooooooooooooooo" noise. I immediately turned off the stereo, still there. I thought it was something drive line, shifted into neutral, still...

    Video: Stock 2012 Mustang vs Porsche GT3 RS

    Hey guys, here's a clip from an "instructor play session" at our HPDE on Sunday. As soon as I caught sight of the Porsche, I started pushing a bit harder. That thing puts power down like crazy and he was pulling me hard out of the slower corners. I had to make it up in other places. My...

    Replacement MC Cap? / DIY Bleeder

    Hey guys, I'm building a pressure bleeder with a garden sprayer and need a master cylinder reservoir cap to finish it. I went to Vatozone and O'Reilys and totally struck out. They don't even list replacement caps in their system looking all the way back to a 2005 Mustang. I tried one of the...

    Onboard Video: Harris Hill Road Course

    Hey guys, here's some footage from this past Saturday at Harris Hill Road in San Marcos, TX. I was instructing for Longhorn Racing Academy, and taking my car out for laps in between. I propped my Canon 60D up in the backseat on a tripod. My student had a '12 Mustang too, but with Brembos (+...

    Made a Custom Leather Shift Knob

    I was looking for a clean, all leather shift knob and wasn't having any luck, so I decided to take a piece of leather from my first racing suit and try my hand at making one. I learned a few lessons for the next project like this, but for something I didn't have much confidence in actually...

    Chrome Interior Trim --> Matte Black

    Hey guys. Since I'm not a huge fan of chrome, the amount of chrome trim on the interior bothered me. I was ready to ditch the glare and constant finger prints, so I ordered a small roll of 3M matte black, self-adhesive vinyl. Using some scissors, a utility blade, and a Plackers flosser (for...

    Before and after GT500 Mufflers

    Hey guys here's a before and after the install of Ford Racing M-5230-MGTCA1 mufflers on my 2012. I listened to a ton of sound clips of different axle backs. Besides the ridiculous price that most manufacturers are charging for them, many didn't sound good to me. I had all but decided to make...

    ODB-II Logging / PID's with Torque Android App

    Hey guys, Anyone else using a bluetooth or USB ODB-II dongle and the Torque app to log data on their Coyote? Lots of good info to gather, and I'm really impressed at how accurately this ECU is able to fuel the engine. I spent soooo many hours looking at data on my modded '95 GT, and trying to...

    Heat Extractor For 2011+

    New direction today. Since we are dealing with a more narrow cowl, I think a single extractor like the newer GT500 is a better bet. After spending a lot of time looking for a generic extractor vent and finding either super cheap, or very expensive pieces, I think making my own is the way to go...

    Mounting Bolt Slop w/ Aftermarket Panhard

    Hey guys, I installed a Spohn Performance del-sphere/poly panhard bar a few hundred miles ago. It's a really nice unit, and I'm impressed with the del-sphere joint. I noticed no increase in noise or vibration after the install. Today I noticed a couple squeaks from back there so I climbed...

    Heat Extractor on 2011+ GT Hood?

    I'd really like to install a heat extractor vent on my 2012 GT hood. I've been looking into the GT500 replacement vent, but I don't think it will fit width wise with the newer GT's narrow cowl. I read somewhere that the vent is 32" wide. If that's the case, it's not even close to fitting. Any...
