Saw him today at a CPA's office. Brand new, never even been washed. Blue with black aero bits. Saw him a couple of hours later across from me at a light. something tells me he and I will be seeing more of each other (unless it's a garage queen). I suspect he'll have me dead to rights down low, but I'm hoping I can put up a fight up top. Coincidentally, if timing works out (I have a lot to do) I'll be putting the 305 M/T ET Street S/Ss on tomorrow. Will also post a back to back comparison of them and the current 555Rs (second set).

You sir are correct. Heading to Six Shooters and Bandanas-R-Us tomorrow though.
Can’t wait to hear the real world street scrap stories when the Fords start showing up.

I sense a great future driving story brewing here.

Get 'em!

I would think you should be able to get him 0-100 and then you would have a tough time holding him off.

FWIW I've run both the 555Rs and M/T ET Street S/S and the Mickeys are much better. I suspect you will be very happy :)

Trying to get them mounted today, but may have to let it slip until monday or tuesday. Doubt it will matter a whole lot as I don't think he's anywhere close to out of break in. But you never know.

Went out and did my baselines then headed to the shop but they're snowed at the moment.

You mounting those 305s on stock wheels? I've been debating stock size or 305s when my stock tires go on my Redeye. I'll likely get the MT S/S tires, since I really like the MT Rs for the track. I know people who say 305s aren't meant to go on a NB stock wheel (Wheel width to small), but will I die? lol.

Also blow the doors off that GT500! Wish there was one in my town I could play with. Maybe they are all hiding. Dammit, lol.

11 x 20 PK look-alikes (see photos elsewhere) And I don't put overwidth on too narrow a wheel. Seen it roll under on a guy once (probably ok in a straight line, down low, is my opinion, but I'm not running mid-triple digits like that - there's a reason the manufacturers put that limitation on there).

And maybe Im reading the gearing and trans combos wrong, but I think from a dig he'll have me dead to rights. From a 30 or around there, I think I can hold my own or at least give a good fight. It's all good.

EDIT: this is on the street on crappy TXDOT composition asphalt.

Rules are meant to be broken!!! lol. I'll probably try out the 275s, even same size tire they have to be better than the stock tires!! When I start to mod, I'll get some replica rears for more road contact. I think I was looking at the PKs at one point, they look pretty damn close to stock.
