How (and why) to Ramble on your goat sideways
However, it did lack decent steady state grip, so all turns were taken that way.

It has whiteline sways, I need to move the rear bar to the stiffest setting, or "shorter" in the subby world; from the middle position. The front bar is set to the "longer" setting aready.
I dont quite understand the methodology of the sway bar sizing in the subby world, as the bar's cricumfernce matters, yet the measurements I always see is the distance from the sway bar mount bracket to the endlink hole.
Right now, if I turn the wheel if it's going at speed into a corner, it keeps going straight. Thing doesnt make enough low-end to toss the rear otherwise
It doesnt help that those Cooper Tires are ****.

LOL! No, I mean just a quick weight transfer to get the back end out.

- The 2015 Ford Mustang is slated to get a fuel-efficient 2.3-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine
- The engine is based on the turbocharged 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine featured in the 2013 Ford Focus ST.
- Engine output is likely to rise from 252 horsepower to 300 hp in 2.3-liter form, according to company insiders.

Yeah they were complaining about it on Top Gear. They were happy to finally get the Mustang over the pond, only to find out it will only come with the Ecoboost engine and not a V8.

Surely that is the base motor. I find it hard to believe that Ford would do away with the V8 in the Europeon market.
