Default Sharp turns

I have yet to take a turn at a good speed in my mustang because I haven't had very long. How well does the 2003 mustang gt's take turns. How fast can you go in a decent turn without spinning out and even flipping your car?

Well there are a lot of factors that go into that equation. How long is the turn? The angle of the turn? the weather? This is not an all or nothing question. I have an 01 and I am very happy with it's ability. Tires play a big factor. Suspension set up. Just too many variables.

Some of the bigger factors include tires, suspension, 'road' surface, and driver capability. There are some 25mph rated curves that I can comfortably do 40-50mph on, but that is because I know what my car can do with the current conditions.

You can go at least 120mph...




Kidding.






But seriously, our cars can handle pretty well with some carefully chosen suspension and tire upgrades. I recommend suspension from www.uprproducts.com

Agreed with above. I've seen (and owned) Mustangs that will handle with the best cars on the track. It's all in how you put it together.
