Hey Steve, I saw this 2011 Mustang GT Power Package and by the way, how was MIR?

With our exclusive calibration, your 5.0 will gain an approximate peak increase of 16 hp and 7 lb-ft on 93 octane fuel and up to 60 lb-ft at 1500 rpm. This Ford Racing Pack is applicable for both automatic and manual transmission models. Additionally, the Ford Racing calibration eliminates "skip-shift" on manual transmissions and the M-5230-MGTCA1 mufflers sound great.

# Kit includes:

* Ford Racing ProCal tool with performance calibration for significantly improved throttle response and performance feel
* 2011 Mustang GT High Flow K&N / Ford Racing Air Filter With Performance Calibration M-9603-MGTB
* 2011 Mustang GT - SVT Muffler Kit (50 State) M-5230-MGTCA1
* Performance Oil Filter CM-6731-FL820

# Premium (91 octane or higher) fuel only

MIR was OK, had traction issues all day long and found a clutch problem I need to sort out. Jay and I rolled up together (he didn't run the max) and we had a good time, although I didn't crack 12s today.

13.216 @ 107.19 was the best ET. Best MPH on the day was a 109.71. I am having an issue with the clutch pedal hanging up for a second on the floor after a shift (and in some cases not coming back up until I go back to get it). Also need some lower control arms to get rid of this wheel hop (jay will tell you how bad it was).

I'm not doing any power mods until I can get this car to my goal ET of 12.7, which I know I can do. I just need to sort some issues out first (both car and driver).

I can attest to the wheel hop issue. Out of the gates it was real bad, then on the 1-2 shift, more wheel hop. Really wanted to run the Max, but between having to buy a brand new phone (blackberry was a POS) and worried about the durability of the CVT, decided it was best to sit it out. Going to hit up Old Dominion's 1/8th mile sometime real soon and see what times I can run

Sorry to hear of the issues with traction and clutch. I guess that is where you find those things out. Glad you enjoyed it though. I'll enjoy hearing more tomorrow.

I stopped at Starbucks this morning on my way home from D and V. Didn't see anyone at about 10:30AM but I did see a graphite 370Z in the Kohls parking section. Then on my way out to 7100 at the light I saw another graphite 370Z with a leather bra driving toward Braddock Rd.

Got a friends wedding at 5pm today so won't be able to make it unfortunately. At least you all don't have to reserve a "bus lane" for the Maxima as Al so kindly stated this week
