You don't work on Sundays put your car in with the rest of us at the show.

Not sure if they are allowing rides. Lot of venues, because of insurance, are not allowing it anymore.

 

[WebXtremes]

I thought the last two years were pretty good. If we could get 20 Foci to show up each year consistently they would probably give us a good spot in the parking lot. Make them notice us with loud music, BBQ and lots of drinking...LOL j/k somewhat.

 

[WebXtremes]

Well we all know the Mustang guys, excluding Hommie...LOL all think their cars are M6s (with the price tag) so they look down at us Foci owners.

 

[WebXtremes]

Love that wagon! It wouldn't be a party without you, Davor...LOL Always good times when we are hangin with you.

 

[WebXtremes]

There is an IRDC lapping day July 8th. 125.00 which is a great deal. Still room left open I believe to track.

 

[WebXtremes]

Yeah, save your money to get the Stang ready for a track day THIS year...LOL

 

[WebXtremes]

They already cashed my check.

 

[WebXtremes]

Paul don't be a child and make personal threats, of all places, a public forum. Call the guy again and handle it professionally.

 

[WebXtremes]

Will be interesting to see how much track time we will get on this day. We did a half day of lapping on July 4th. 140 miles on the track. The most I have done in a full day is 168.

 

[WebXtremes]

If your tracking this day please bring your Canopy. It's going to be 92-95 and add another 10+ for being on the asphalt. We are setting up on the edge of the paddock road near the newly paved section. It's easier this way to get in line with all the cars that will be attending for each session.

 

[WebXtremes]

Yes, great tip. I have the rears really tight with a breaker bar. I'll do the fronts too when I change out all my rotors this week prior to the track day.

If you haven't changed these out in the past plan on doing it. I've had my right rear go twice now in 19K miles (43 track days). I changed both rears and will be doing the fronts next week.

Order the parts from Tousley Ford around 60.00 each. Local Ford dealers will charge 89-121.00 each.

Don-your buddy at BP Ford never returns my calls. Easier to get them from Steve at Tousley Ford and pay shipping.

 

[WebXtremes]

These are very easy to install too. You don't need to pay someone to install them.

 

[WebXtremes]

I bought the hub/assembly all in one unit. No need to use a press. The Tone ring works real good on the wrong side. Kinda hard to trigger ABS when the magnetic ring is not engaged to the back up the hub. Can you buy the fronts with the hub assembly? I think you can. But I could be wrong.

 

[WebXtremes]

Good info! I have access to a press so no worries there.

 

[WebXtremes]

Did they do that last year? I know IRDC 2-day school involves that but not for lapping days. Do you need some schooling Charles?...LOL

 

[WebXtremes]

Oh...btw I didn't even get an email...LOL

 

[WebXtremes]

Most of the track days have been light this year. IMHO it's due to your insurance companies will no longer cover your car if you have an incident on the track. Doesn't matter if it's an HPDE day.

 

[WebXtremes]

They do offer track insurance. I have the guy's card at home. Annual premium is basically 10% of the value of the car, you determine that with the mods you have. Plus, 5K deductible.

For our cars that is reasonable.

 

[WebXtremes]

It's a different company. I sent an inquiry online to Laurelde and they never responded back.
