Track Pack, worth it?

So is it stiffer than your Infinity? And is it rough over road bumps, jarring or does it absorb it well?
But I'm thinking about it because pricing it out on the 10 it save me about a grand overall so I'm really leaning toward it. Not the biggest fan of the summer tires but they can be replaced with all season's after they are done so no big deal.

But I can't wait for it to be warm to really see what these tires can do.

No it is a lot more comfortable on the road...honestly my last car was more setup for autocrossing than street use. The track pack is not that harsh (and i live in some of the crappiest roads in NJ). Other people have said it is comfortable enough for daily use.
But I can't wait for it to be warm to really see what these tires can do.

Hmmm, I've read where Ford is introducing(at a later date) a more evolved Track Pack with even stickier tires and perhaps with adjustable struts/shock settings over the Brembo Package. Who knows until we see it, right?

From researching the '11 Mustang, I think the 3.55 or 3.73 axle options are stand-alone and do not include any other tweaks to the car.
I like good brakes, and the Brembo pkg. looks sweet, but I also don't want "summer" tires as I will drive the car on snow/salt-free winter days. (plus the roads are pretty chewed-up and I can see bending rims w/40 series tires)
I want to know if the 18" SVT wheels from Ford Racing (that clear the FRPP Brembo Kit) would clear the factory '11 Brembo option.
If I can't run 50-series tires that work all year (and don't cost $1500 to replace every 15K), I won't get the Brembo pkg.

You need a truck not a Mustang... do Mustangs come with 50 series tires?
