Wish I knew. Guy at Ford says could be the added traction from the 315's I put on the back, or could be discount tire bolted those big tires on with the axle dropped, the tire would be up against the bump stop bracket and torqueing the bolt down, could bend the axle. Either way, it's getting fixed tomorrow under warranty. And I will stay away from Discount tire next time, just in case.

Set up for autocross right now with some nice day driving in between events. Will eventually do road race stuff with it, and have been down the strip a few times but that is boring to me now. Will likely only do that again if it's a big event or a bunch of guys going.

Mines my daily driver but I like to keep it clean so it looks good for others to look at. Other then minor bolt ons at some point Ill do a few appearance mods so it will be a DD/Show type car.

Daily/cruiser.

Weekend warrior! Drive it to work one in a while. Other than that just drive to the track or gtg on the weekends.

Daily driver mostly. It's working towards being a decent autocross/road course car.
I'd like to run a 2:0x lap at ecr, be competitive at autox, and get a low 11/high 10 sec slip out of it one day. Haven't quite figured out how I'm going to make it all happen but those are my goals. I think doing the Texas mile event might be fun also.

its my DD that I drag, autox, roll race and generally piss of the normal public with!

Daily driver, show car and weekend toy rolled into one. :pepper:

Mine splits daily driver duty with my '65 Mustang, and I use it as stress-relief when I've had a bad day (nothing like blasting past a moron texting on I-35).

Someday, I would like to drive up at Eagle Canyon.
