Haha, nothing that extreme. Heading to the Boss Track Attack in the morning and they only allow roll bar mounts in the car. Looking forward to the TSA groping, I'm gonna make them look me in the eye while they molest me. T&P.

Ground to top of wheel well is 27.75 in rear and 28 in front. So far I haven't scrapped the ground. But I haven't gone into a steep driveway or over a speed bump.

No roll bar... yet. But I do have a roll bar camera mount so I may need a roll bar to keep from losing it ~ Racer's Logic.

I've got some pics and vids but I need to figure out how to get them on the interweb. The trip was a blast and I highly recommend every Boss owner take advantage of the track day. Miller Motorsports also offers 1 and 2 day courses in a GT or 500S race car. I want to go back next year for the two day course.

I picked their brains about the car setups. None of the instructors had a problem with the stick axle but they weren't impressed with the factory shocks and springs or the weight of the Mustang.

All of the cars were on BF Goodrich Sport COMP 2 except for another driver and I who had Michelin Pilot Sports. All of the BFG tires had that odd wear that you guys were getting at the autox but no one had a problem with it. One of the instructors said the Michelin's were garbage compared to the BFG tires and all of the instructors chose the BFG cars when they took us on hot laps at the end of the day. I never got to drive with the BFG tires but the Michelin's were getting greasy after a few laps.
