          Thanks for the welcome guys!
          Here's a pic of the Corolla, has a few extra dents after this last season of racing! Ice racing doesn't really need extra horsepower, just more traction!
          Rear interior of the car has been stripped out and a bit of extra ballast weight added in the front end. So far the stock ~100 HP (4AFE) is more than enough. Plan is to tweak the suspension (adjustable camber) and come up with a way to independently apply the rear brakes to help rotation in the turns.
          Mustang's pretty much stock except for some suspension adjustments, Ford Racing mufflers, SCT Livewire programmer, dedicated track tires. Been mostly busy giving it some TLC after the previous owner!
          And, I'll be more of a Leaf's fan if they ever win the cup again!!!

            Is the e-brake a foot pedal? Must be able to rig it to a hand brake set up.

              No, it's a hand brake lever between the seats. I'm thinking a second hand brake lever so I have one for each wheel! Just have to get inventive with the cable linkage. If I want to get really fancy, setup a lever that you push from side to side, sort of like the rear steering on a monster truck!
