    Where they belong…

    Got to take the 98 to Cota for some hot laps. Unfortunately, too hot. Started throwing codes but I’m sure it’s fine. Got a handful of laps and hope to get more seat time soon. Coming from the mk2, the differences are apparent yet much less than expected in certain situations. The handling...

    Presenting MKII #13...

    Delivered a little over a week ago, on track the next weekend. A true lap time monster, yet extremely easy to drive. I was spooked until my first session. It was so easy and confidence inspiring. The weekend was truly one of the greatest experiences in my life, and by far the greatest track...

    50 shades of red...

    Im starting to spec my MKII, and being a red fanatic, I was thinking of a MKIV tribute livery, somewhat similar to the MKIV heritage but slightly different. MM is suggesting race red, which I think may be the 18 heritage color, but is that the same as MKIV red on the 05-06? Or are they very...

    Lets speculate, what happens 21-22 heritage years...

    First, thanks to Ford for making 2 more years of production! There will be some happy owners in the future! Second, what do you guys think will happen in 2021 and 2022 for the heritage cars, if any?? I'd speculate on a 2016 Le Mans Heritage (huge longshot), and maybe a 2018 heritage (or...

    Track day Focus RS....

    Picked up an RS a month ago, been my new daily and really love it! Upgraded the turbo, pipes, and exhaust for 400whp! Love the shifter, the noise, and it has pretty incredible handling. I had never owned a hatch and I really love the driving position. Took it for its first spin at COTA this...

    Ran out of fuel, says 3/4 full...

    I was driving down the highway yesterday, all going well. Did a turn around, and a doughnut on a side abandoned road, then the car would die under acceleration. I crawled back down the highway for 1 mile, ran fine with 1/4 throttle, then finally gave out completely 100 ft from a parking lot...

    New DD, focus rs? Gt350??

    My wife wants my srt Jeep, so that means a new DD for me. Been leaning towards a focus rs for 4 doors for easy access to a car seat. Thought about a gt350 or even gt500, but dealer basically told me good luck it’s going to cost you a ton over sticker for a gt500. Only other candidate is new...

    Looks like they dont make the 315/40/19 anymore, make a 345/30 and 315/35. I checked the tire calculator comparisons and the 315 is less error than the 345, just curious what yalls experience is on track with these. Looks like the still make 245/40/18 for the front so thats easy. Any input...

    Anyone know of a flood car from all this craziness? I was thinking of building a track toy if the right car came along. Any help appreciated.

    My GT arrived... (slot car) :)

    It may only have .000647 HP, but the power to weight is still awesome! Honestly, for $35 this thing looks better than my $100 TSM. Side by side for comparison.

    S7 maiden voyage at COTA....

    I finally got the S7 back from Moorespeed. They have been working on restoring the car to its prime as this car had sat for years after the passing of the AE racing founders. They were mid rebuild when they passed, so the car was thrown back together and sold through the probate court. This...

    1995 cobra R....

    I have a mint 1995 R I've been thinking of selling, it has 438 miles and is museum quality. Seats still have plastic, windows still have chaulk marks, really just a nice wrapper car. Just dont have the time to enjoy it between the other cars. Looking for around $38K which I think is fair. Any...
