Couldn't agree more when you say that you've gotta get to know the car, gradually if you're smart, by taking it off the mainstream roads and start hitting back roads and parking lots. Get a real feel for the powerband, wheelbase, tranny...the car... so it gets to feeling very natural in almost any driving situation and road condition. Almost like an extension of your body, a limb, and the driving experience for a domestic will become second to none. Either that or prepare to be thrust into chaos when you least expect it. Maybe wear a diaper, buy really good insurance and pray you don't kill someone. For a domestic, I love the Stangs. FUN...when you know your cars limits, capabilities and most importantly, your own. Short wheelbases, rear wheel drive and tons of torque is a magical combination when you're in full control.

Great advice. Take it from a 62 year old dude that has owned all kinds of fairly performance cars, done some rally and slalom racing, drove truck, millions of miles accident free but none of it was in one of these babies. I started with a new 21 GT, successfully put 8,000 miles on it and traded it in for a Roush. With great power comes great responsibility. It took me a month of driving to get up to the point of trying a burnout with the GT and how right you are, they do like to get snaky. I got the Roush just before snow and only drove it about 200 miles, but it demands a lot of respect. They are incredible cars, but you got to get used to what you are dealing with just like the man says. Right on the money!

I stomped the gas medal around 25mph and the back end came around to meet the front end. I nearly hit the curb but managed some how to steer out of it. So long story short I learned a valuable lesson that day. I never got that close to losing control again. I learned to counter steer and know where to draw the line when the car was starting get out of my control.

I don't get you at all man. I've been racing for 20 years and carry a few different types of racing licenses, and I'd never advise anyone to go "hoonin'" on the streets - that's what the track is for. The street is where the bad accidents really happens. If you put your car into the wall at the track, well at least you only hurt yourself and there's usually a medical staff. When people go out on the street in cars they can't drive, that's where it usually ends really bad and spectators are hit. Fact is this. Sometimes you go to the track and there are newbies, and so what? We've all been there. Instead of making a video that bags on those who don't know how to use the waterbox, why not make a video that shows how to use it, and tells those that run tires with treads to stay out of it all together, as they don't even benefit from a burnout. When you see a new guy at the track, do you shout at him and make him nervous for not doing the right thing, or do you help him stage and do his burnout the right way? Think about it buddy.

And do you find it odd that the parking lots at kkklan rallies have no Audi, Porsche, BMW, Mercedes, Jaguar, Lexus, Volvo, Subaru,...,... brand cars, but no shortage of muscle cars and lifted trucks. Hmmmm? I'm not a fan of safe driving either. Life is far too short to waste it going the speed limit from A to B. I'm usually between 10 and 60 over the speed limit, and haven't been in an accident for 20 years. You should read up on how speed limits are arrived at. It has nothing to do with safety. Why do you think the same cross country highway changes speed limits many times between LA and NY, when road conditions are the same.

I thought I was going to be a squid when I purchased my first mustang (21 GT), but it turns out that driving v8 trucks my whole life prepared me pretty well. In the sense of never disrespecting your vehicle's power, always expect an unexpected loss of control, and never swoon without practicing. I only started losing the rear end on purpose recently, but was surprised at how controllable it is. Honestly, I'm a little surprised at how soon Ford wants its traction control to take over, even with it off. Advanced traction control being off might resolve that, but just tapping it off once gets the job done if I'm trying to skirt. Tested out 19x10/11 wheels on Nitto NT555s and installed my lowering springs yesterday. Love me my country roads.

The live axle is not any different than the S550 around a corner it's only different if there are decent bumps/holes. Every rear wheel car spins out around a corner if the power given is more than the tire traction also. People really underestimate how many mustangs there are on the road compared to other rear wheel drive cars with lots of power and torque. Like in 2016 the mustang sold worldwide like more than all the other cars in it's class combined over 150,000. It's been the best seller in it's class for like 50 years in the US. Remember the Camaro was not even being made for 6 years from 2003 to 2008 so there are TONs more mustangs. On top of there being just more cars, there are more mustang only car shows and clubs etc than any other single car model. What this means is there are tons more situations where there are people around mustangs with cameras video taping at mustang exclusive events not to mention there are tons of mustangs at every other car show so the chance of taping the car accident and it being a mustang is even more inflated. There is nothing different about the mustang causing it to crash, it's just simple statistics. Every rear wheel car with power will spin around the same way if you turn the wheel and gas it. Quite honestly I am tired of the Mustang meme.

The 3 flavor pump station uses a single pump diafram to pump up to the nozzle and when it stops a metering block turns on the fuel diafram until the line is empty, they don't leave fuel in the hose.

You are correct, sir. As a former gasoline delivery driver, I've had people come up to me and ask all sorts of questions that were mostly filled with misinformation. Like, don't buy gas while the truck is making a delivery because it stirs up the dirt at the bottom of the tank and you'll get it in your cars tank. Yeah, that's sooo not true. First, it's filtered before it gets in the trucks tank. Second, it's filtered twice, before it gets into your cars tank. But I digress. As for crashing ANY car, high horsepower or not, fwd, awd, or rwd, it's really all about the driver, their experience, and most importantly, their common sense. I have over 1.5 million miles CERTIFIED safe driving. And probably more than half of that in four wheelers in addition. I used to street race in my '72 Pro-Street Vega, waaaay back in the day. We didn't have all the goodies and electronic gizmos you younger guys and gals have available to you now. It was run what ya brung, and you'd better be on your best behavior with your best skills, both in engine building as well as driving. These days, you just plug in a mini computer, or go down to a local "tuner" and fork over your cash to get a faster car. Or worse, you just buy a fast car.

I quickly found out that the soft runner bushings that the factory put in for NVH reasons was not good for quick 1/4 mile times. After I replaced the rear UCA with and adjustable one and got rid of the garbage lowers the car squatted better off the line without the wheel hop and deflection and felt more like my old 90 LX did back in the day when leaving the line. I would suggest that anyone with a Coyote GT do the rear suspension first before trying to go faster. The GT500's sound great, I have them with a Lethal ORH and it sounds like a Mustang should. That aluminum corrosion is terrible, I had to have the hood of my 14 replaced by the dealer under warranty back in the summer of 2015 because it was bubbling along the front lip.

I'm just skeptical of the margin of error regarding traction for anything under a 55 profile with big horsepower on tap. Tipping into the throttle with more than 500hp is always something to stay smooth on regardless.

Strangles, think about it this way, take a little VTEC car and force it onto the VTEC cam and you will have chop (and run like shit below 4krpm lol), now think of the coyote as having vtec (i know sounds dumb lol) but instead of the higher more aggressive cam specs being an on/off switch its fed in for the most power and good quick starting and drivability down low and a smooth idle. Only difference would be VTEC raises valve lift where our setups dont. Also you can have a high lift high duration cam not be choppy on the LS motors, and you can take a stock spec LS camshaft and only change the overlap and get chop.

The traction control system on mustang is the most driver friendly system I've ever experienced. It will let you spin tires and hang the rear out as long as you want, and won't kick in till you start getting super extreme. If you can drive it makes the car fun as fuck. If you can't you panic and crash into something
