    Heads-up on OEM Shock Replacements

    Hmmm, this locked shock at full extension/rebound I have not heard of or seen, but I do not have a lot of experience with other manufacturers beyond Ohlins and Multimatic (I was the design and release engineer on the stock FGT dampers with Multimatic). To my knowledge, Ford did not store nor...

    That 80%+ of those 60 customers are this Ford GT Forum customers. They all have the 2-way SL-1's except I had three forum customers early on get the RT-1 setup with the four-way adjustables.

    98% of the are the SL-1 package (Street Lowered). Great balance of ride, handling and steering for the road mostly and the track a little. Our customers agree this set up rides as well as stock or better. But gives them more confidence and capability on the road and track.

    I am not familiar with the Moton system for the Ford GT. We have sold 60 sets of our Ohlins TTX adjustable coilovers to Ford GT Owners like you see above. You can see more details on our website (https://www.ahlmanperformance.com/products#/ford-gt-shock-overview) to compare and feel free to ask...

    Looks great, David! We sell and support Girodiscs Brakes also when you are ready! (Specracer has them on his FGT) Great floating two piece rotors that don't make noise due to their design.

    Bridgestone replacement source

    We do not have a curve or objective data on the tires down at these temps...significant FGT and tire knowledge and experience shows that is the start of the worst point (the glass transition point)...for the tires at least. Tires behave linearly up to near the limit and then very non-linear at...

We call that 40 deg F the "Glass transition point" where the grippy rubber starts acting like plastic. Further the FGT...
