If you’re going to put your early Mustang on track, you’ll want to have brake ducts.
We turned to Cobra Automotive for a pre-fab duct kit for our 1965 Mustang vintage racer. The company offers kits for both the stock-type, 11-inch rotors or the 12-inch setup that we installed. Both work with the Shelby-style front apron.
The two kits …
That brings back memories.
I was amateur racing in the early 1970s through the 90s and it was a group that tended to do their own mods based on whatever they thought would work. I recall more than a handful of projects like this where the owner/modifier had miscalculated the amount that the steering lock would affect things - we even coined a term for it - when someone was absent in their first practice with this sort of demon tweak, and later came in on the end of a line, they were referred to as 'going slinky' as the dryer exhaust hose they usually used looked like a giant disemboweled slinky toy strung across the track.
Great series of posts, BTW.
