So we're going to cut up the recently purchased 2007 Mustang Track car.

See here: https://lateral-g.net/forums/showthread.php4?t=54720

The motor in that car is "lame" -- well to be honest -- to most it would be fantastic - but NOT after you've driven my yellow '65..... and it has the usual blower belt "issues" (A known fact of using blowers and stick shifts and hitting the rev limiter)..... I enlisted the help of my friend Gary Patterson (President of Carroll Shelby) to see if there is a suitable fix - but there really isn't one that I want to be bothered with...... I drive a car off the rev limiter every shift if I can.... so that whole thing is just not for the way I drive. I'm not going on track to short shift ANYTHING.... LOL

So a plan has been hatched!

The '07 will go to SpeedTech in St George Utah for a complete gutting. A complete Ron Sutton chassis will be installed -- it will also get a Ron Sutton LS7 dry sumped Track Warrior of around 700 to 750hp -- an EMCO sequential transmission - new cage - all new suspension (Rons) and whatever else we deem to be in order.

See some of the details of the Ron Sutton Race Technologies Track Warrior cars here:

November should be about the start date -- and hopefully we'll be on track 6 or 7 months later. Money was wired to cover ordering all the major components and some of the other stuff as well -- clutch - brakes (All new StopTech) etc. So when SpeedTech is ready to drop the floors out of this pig -- they'll have everything they need in house all ready to go.

Cool!:gitrdun:
