Mustang GT Shakedown!

I bought a Mustang! This will be the new FastSideways rental car, and, just maybe, if I'm feeling impulsive enough, it might see some competition in Muscle Cup or the Super GT Series.
At any rate, these things are a great car for not much money...a little boaty while stock, but nothing some tweaks can't fix. For a car on tires made of stone and brakes made of butter, AND with two obstacles (cone, Boxster) to contend with in this lap, I was quite pleased with a 1:35.2. The car goes...now if I can make it also stop and turn, it could be reasonably quick!

I’ve always thought these would make for a fun car with a lot of suspension, brake, and weight reduction work.

[@NikRomanoRacing]

I've done very little work: brake pads and fluid, basic springs, shocks, bars, and zero weight reduction. It's already a great car, and surprisingly quick!

[@RevRideReason]

nice perfect car to have fun in for the price. working on my 2014 Coyote as well. suspension, tires and brakes and what a blast. thx for video

[@NikRomanoRacing]

Agreed! Thanks for watching.

How to start and finish a hot lap: handbrake initiation. I can hear the car chiming. lmao

[@NikRomanoRacing]

Do what must be done.

Please make a video on BeamNG. I know it sounds crazy but I think it just might be the most realistic Sim out there. Most importantly they have a new tire model this year.

[@NikRomanoRacing]

Would you believe that (in some regards) I totally agree with you? It's definitely the best rallying sim I've ever played. Haven't tried the new tire model yet, I'll have to give it a shot!

Making that poor car make sounds it's probably never made before... Lol

[@NikRomanoRacing]

Poor car probably had an easy life up to this point. Poor thing never saw it coming.

Needs louder tires

[@NikRomanoRacing]

Of all the things this car needs, you picked "louder tires."

[@NikRomanoRacing]

@@stmk-mh6gx Imagine going to Laguna Seca and getting black flagged for the tires being too loud.
