Default 2011 GT Track Pack?

Wondering if anyone has seen details on this yet? More specifically, I'm wondering if the Track Pack suspension also lowers the car (on top of performance...I really like the more aggressive stance of lowered gt's).

Thanks

I doubt it. The '10 TP is not lowered and has even more 4x4 look due to shorter sidewalls on the 255's.

Thanks, dog! I see you have Steeda sport springs...did they lower your stance? I'd love to see a pic of your car.

Here ya go. On mine, it dropped the front just over .5" and the rear 1.3".

There is no track pack option for 2011. I lowered my 2006 using a package from Ford racing, it looks awesome and handles like a dream (some may not like it thought). They have 2 kits for the 2010, one lowers the car 1 inch, the other, an 1 1/2 half. Before I ordered my 2011 in January, I called FR and asked if the 2 kits for 2010 will also apply to the 2011. They told me they hadn't tested them yet. My guess is, there will be a kit available. I'm not promoting FRPP, just informing you of what I know is available. A friend of mine just replaced springs on his 2005 and it isn't nearly as aggressive as mine, but it was cheaper. The 'original' track pack was in fact something you could get from FR before it ever showed up on a production mustang. They also had a 'drag pack' which never made it to production, it's what I installed along with the handling pack. I'm glad I went that route, most of what I installed has been installed on one production mustang or another. The GT-H and the Bullit for example.

Which did you choose the 1" or 1.5" drop for FRPP... I am also going to do this kit soon (to set up for my supercharger install). Hows the ride compared to stock?

What I ordered for my 2006 lowered the car 1 1/2. Made a world of difference in looks and handling. And the car already handled great. I'll probably do the same on my 2011.

How was the ride quality though? Any issues with clearance? I'm thinking about only doing the 1" drop, its still my everyday car.
