I still have a soft spot in my heart for those 84-86 Mustangs. Getting them to handle takes some time but it CAN be done!

Goodyear BIAS slicks, probably 430 compound. At least that is what they used to run........I current DOT radials would do the same thing on that car

I'm not sure I would attribute that kind of "bicycling" to "grip"

Hi Brenda. I don't think I have the picture anymore, it was a few computers ago. If I come across it I'll let you know.
