    Wheel Openings

    Just and FYI, if you look at the attached photo you'll see chips in the outer edge of the openings behind the front wheels. I do use DBK's screens (great product), but I do also track my car and remove them for that purpose. I just installed a small rubber u-channel that I purchased from...

    THREE DAYS AT COTA

    Where did you set the stability and traction control? When I tracked mine I did feel it taking over on tight turns. That's with everything on. I figured next time I'd start backing them off.

    TRAILER FOR NEW GT

    I have an ATC 21' 5th wheel. I had them add extra wide side doors on both sides so that I could get out of the car and also easily strap the tires down to e-tracks. They also pushed out the wheels on the trailer by about an inch. With the inner fender guards out I can open both GT doors without...

    3 Generations of GT's

    I went to a photo shoot at Palmer raceway in MA last summer for a photo shoot for the 3 generations of GT's that Mesh Magazine put together. They produced this video.

    Removable Fire Extinguisher Mount

    I removed the two nuts that attache the front of the seat bottom to the tub. Slide it on the studs and reattach the nuts. The plate is 1/8" thick so there is plenty of stud height.

    Removable Fire Extinguisher Mount

    FYI, I was able to make a removable fire extinguisher mount by having a custom bracket made up and combining it with Rennline off the shelf parts. With the "trunk" empty it fits in nice for storage.

    Track Tires

    Just got off the phone with Hoosier. They are planning on a few more sizes. One matches the OE front tire. This may help. Nothing an exact match for the rears.

    Track Tires

    If the tire size holds true. The calculations show the fronts are 0.78" wider, but 0.5" less in height. Rears are only 0.39" wider but 1.08" less in height so they my not be an issue. I've been trying to find an alternative for track use so if anyone tries this please keep us informed.

    Cold Temp. tire concern on new 2017 FGT

    "I had made the decision to get and extra set of BBS wheels and had Nitto tires mounted on them for a couple of reasons. The rears are slightly narrower 295 – 325 but are the same diameter and are not temperature sensitive, Ford approved the size. Will mount track tires on the BBS wheels at...
