whats up from the East Coast...
Hey guys.. i havent posted on here in a long time.. been really busy with the job, move and getting t he girlfriend to move from LA to here.. anyway, some updates on the Mustang..
went racing last night (seecond time this season) after installing a relocation kit for my lower control arms to help with my 60ft.. it did drop it from my normal 1.95's down to 1.85's on all 7 runs, but the track was stall way cold. hopefully i can get up there on a Saturday when they VHT the complete track.. All most a 11 but still not.. the car has a custom sub box installed plus a fat a$$ driver (230lbs weight lol) still cant complain to much for having about 1500 bucks into the car

Along with Carlos's questions, what track were the runs made at?

thanks guys.. she's a 2012 GT prim with leather and Auto trans.. the only weight drop i have done is the RTS rims which are 17x4 up front and 15x10's on the back.. Mods are 373 gears, Cold Air Intake, off raod H pipe, GT500 muffs, UPR uppper and lower control arms and an ajustable panhard bar. Ford K springs and a TUNE from my friend Greg from RET in Los Angeles. the car dynoed at 388rwhp and 379tq..
i drive the car a lot so i have a aftermarket radio system (8 speakers and 2 subs) with about 1500 watts and two 12in subs in a custom made box.
i moved to the East Coast this pass July back home to Maryland. Over here we have TONS of tracks, so this was from a local track that is about 25 miles away (Cecil County Raceway)..
my next mods are going to be Long Tube headers and a Converter. this should get the car into the low 11's..

That is a lot of MPH for 388rwhp. Does the panhardbar do anything for launching the car? I always thought they were great at positively locating the axle side to side. Are the k springs softer?
How are you liking Maryland? I grew up in PG County  (Hyatsville)

after dropping that car 2.5 inches with the springs the rear was way out. so i had to get the bar to pull it back in, thats all its used for.. No the K springs are about the same feel as the stock one but you are way lower lol. the LCA relocation kit help bring the arms from going UP to back down like it should be..
the hard shifts hard and i think if i get it a little softer on the shifts i should be able to pick up another 1 or 2 mph..

Panhard bar does absolutely nothing in terms of helping a car launch
