Hello From Austin,TX

Good News Everyone!

I've been looking for a good Mustang forum for weeks. I was on StangNet for a while when I realized that nobody there really engages in any type of conversation. Pretty much the most terrible forum for SN197s and Mustangs in general. Luckily I stumbled upon this place in my quest for answers.

Most recent previous car was a 2010 Genesis Coupe 3.8 Track. Great handling car and had decent power. Previous to that I had a 2004 SRT-4. Really fast with some simple mods but "outgrew" that as I got into a professional career.

Current car is a 2011 Mustang GT/CS in Grabber Blue. It's great. I love everything about this car except for it's sloppy handling and braking. I may have been spoiled by the Genesis' Brembo brakes and Bilstein dampers though.

Anyways. Here's a money shot.



I hope to meet up with the local crowd and get some runs in at Circuit of The Americas.

Ibnzmonkey, looks like I accidentally followed you here from GenCoupe...

Was just reading up on some tires and thought I recognized that avatar. Just ordered my 2014 GT today, and the Genesis is almost back to stock.
