Notice that Vaughn Gittin's Mustang is carrying significantly more angle in the bottom photo photo then our car. What is not apparent is the fact that our car has the steering maxed out to the point that the rim is grinding on the control arm. Vaughn still has a few degrees to play with. This is very important as it not only allows him to hold greater drift angle, it also gives the driver more ability to save the car and avoid spinning.

Here is a zoomed and enhanced view that allows you to see how different the amount of angle between the two cars is. For this reason we are working with Hotrods to Hell to develop a new control arm for both Fox and SN95 Mustangs that will allow for more steering angle.

Here is a basic sketch of the type of control arms that we will need. The red arms are stock and the black ones are the modified arms. They have a profile that is somewhat similar to the 'L' shape control arms found on the S197 chassis.

This is a typical after-market Fox Body k-member and control arms. Can you see how they will not allow for the angle needed for drifting?

Stay tuned for more!
