almost as cute as when you learn how to drive fast and go around an turn and not get sea-sick... I am glad I have AWD, traction, handling and will still wax that ass in a 1/4 mile

I need to learn to be less sensitive to morons that don't know ANYTHING about my car when they are talking shit. Just annoys me when I put so much into this car both financially and emotionally. Then people don't even realize that with AWD... you don't need huge ass tires on the rear to only go in a straight line. Traction is a wonderful thing, especially when you don't have to do things to compensate for lack of it Especially when they are driving a POS mustang...

which tracks do you frequent?

"huge" tires are never a bad thing at the track, especially since AWD does nothing to get you around that corner, huge tires do.

Oh, and there are plenty of Mustangs at the track that will "wax that ass." Especially at VIR during a NASA full course event.

AWD DEFINITELY help get around corners... noob...

I am at HPDE IV as of this summer. Tracks I frequent are Roebling Road, Road Atlanta, Kershaw(Carolina Motorsports Park), VIR, rickingham (not the drag strip) and Limerock. I have been to each of these 2 times or more so far this year. In 2005 I made it to 26 track events and in 2006 I did 30 track events. In 2007 I have averaged over 2 track events a month so far for the year. I am also an certified SCCA instructor and in 2008 will have completed the requirements for my NASA license. Lets not go there...

Just as an FYI, if you know how to drive your car then 235's are more than adequate. And there probably are plenty of Mustangs that will "wax that ass"... but yours is not one of them so lets keep the "I have a friend that knows a guy with a _________ " bullshit to a minimum.

How much track time do you have behind the wheel?
