    That was absolutely awesome! A car that probably weights 3000lbs in its current config with probably 280-300hp is a pretty bitchen set up AND it has AC thats queen right there! Hope to see it on track and road trips more!

    I am getting close to being able to go to my first track day in my 68 Mustang fastback. I cannot believe the amount of planning, evaluation of part options, money, time and emotional effort I have put into my build. I think it is the exact same as you expressed after you finished your first laps. Thanks for sharing and congrats.

      There really is SO much that goes into these builds... we put our hearts and souls into them and when it goes so well... I was kind of shocked by the overwhelming happiness and relief and emotion of it all. Little bit embarrassing but also real to many of us! Thanks for being rad and I hope your Mustang does even better!

      I was surprised the most by how much corner speed it carries... did you see how it kept pace with those little cars! Now that it is mechanically sorted pretty good, it's time for the restoration stuff. Paint/body/interior should get done.

    Jason... I'm so stoked for you.... Your car is the most badass 73 mustang I know!!!. My 67 Camaro is a very similar style build. Couple questions if you have time: How long were the track sessions? Did you have any issue with oil temps? The the car understeer much with the tire stagger F/R? I feel like I will need an oil cooler for my car... Its been autocrossed and after about 10-12 minutes continuous it gets up to about 260 degrees. I can imagine a full track is much more abuse. Been following your build since the beginning and I'm so proud of you! If you weren't on the other coast I'd love to buy you a beer and talk shop! Cheers!

    • @AutoEdits
      @AutoEdits  3 года назад

      Thanks! I don't have an oil temp gauge so I'm not sure and I think the sessions were 25 minutes. I watched the water temps and they never got over 199 so I wasn't worried at all and pressures were good... even during long sweeping turns. I was surprised by the few other late model cars having to pull off early during sessions because of overheating... my BeCool radiator module has proven to be confidence inspiring. About that beer... I appreciate the thought and you just never know where we might be some time... cheers back at ya!

      @@AutoEdits Ya I've been struggling with my exhaust. Removed the Flowmasters, installed a full new 2 1/2 system with X-Pipe to short 14" Magnaflows then had a set of resonators installed just before the tips. It's pretty good now, still a bit loud but only has one spot of annoying resonance / drone between 2200 and 2700 RPM. I couldn't hear any issues with your system as you were rippin through the track. You have Marge dialed, she sounds good and looks the part when hitting the straight out of the corners. All you need is some paint on that car, maybe a few interior bits and it will be quite the machine. Any plans to finish the car or is it as it's going to be?

    • @AutoEdits
      @AutoEdits  3 года назад

      Yep, finish my Viper powered Maverick instead. lol
      On the Mustang, I wouldn't have thrown away all the interior stuff but the rest is pretty great. The paint will be a challenge so we'll see what happens when it's that time.
