I'm getting a lot of interest from the heart of Carolina mustang club for autox'g. I had a driver ask about gearing and some other mods. All his listed mods except the 4.10 gears had him in STX. The car is a 07 GT.

Would the car class in Prepared or street prepared? The wording is a little ambiguous and this is nothing I've dealt w/ in the past. Where would the car class?

Unless there was an ESP version of the S197 Mustang with 4.10 gears, Prepared only.

FYI the 4.10's would probably be a significant disadvantage (far too short).

Yup

Other Mustang on the same line in the book with 4.10 gears = ESP

No other Mustang on the same line with those gears = SM

SP only lets you change the guts of the LSD, not the gears/housing. (Outside of Update/Backdata)

Yep, we had a good time. A few of us do the HPDE events but autox gives others a chance to try it out.
