So......a long long time ago I spent a bunch of time here. And then I didn’t (long story)
Well I’m pretty much set on the idea I’m going to be autocrossing a 4th gen again. So what has changed? Some things I’ve found already: Tires are drastically more expensive Available “good†r compound options are even more limited Street prepared has some allowances I would have liked to have way back when The “newer cars†have taken over ESP Wheels have gone up in price. I think I only paid $400-450/wheel for CCW’s CAM C looks like a class that I’d probably run in “most†of the time just for the participation. What else has changed in 10 years LOL |

What is an M29?
The mustang runs without a backseat because of an update/backdate allowance |

I knew the 1st Gen Shelby had a rear seat delete option, but didn't know it was an option for the Fox body. Still, the rear seats weigh nothing and are in the best place for any weight anyway. |

Yeah not surprised they had an option I just don't think these guys did the full conversion. Bare metal showing where the rear seats use to be. Unless it was some sort of drag pack style option where even at the OE level they didn't bother finishing it with carpet. |
