RinerAutomotive's SN95 Autocross Mustang

[RinerAuto]

Hi Pro-Touring,
My name is Stephen and I've been a member since 2020. I enjoy reading about everyone's builds and figured it was time I share my build on this forum. This first post will just be an introduction. I'll do some dedicated posts later to fill in more details.

The car is a 1994 Ford Mustang specifically built for autocross. I mainly compete in the SCCA Classic American Muscle Traditional (CAM-T) class. I've also made several trips to UMI Motorsports Park running in either the mid or late class depending on the event.



Some of you may already know my car or have seen some of my YouTube videos. I started a YouTube channel (RinerAutomotive) in 2021 that covers many aspects of my build and autocross adventures.



Some details about me, I am a mechanical engineer and have been autocrossing since 2012 with this car. I work in the mining industry, testing off highway haul trucks. So, most car maintenance and race setup I've had to learn.

Current car setup at this time:

Custom short long arm (SLA) front suspension designed and built by myself
Maximum motorsports torque arm/panhard bar rear suspension
Engine is still a small block ford, 306ci, with aftermarket heads, cam, intake, all controlled by a custom junkyard sourced ECU distributor-less ignition setup
Homebuilt aero and vinyl wrap

Probably see a theme that I'm big into DIY. Which is one of them things I like about this forum as well. Thanks for checking out my build thread. I'll go into more detailed posts in this thread to get caught up on the car build. But a project car is never done right? Especially a race car as there is always the pursuit for more speed. This will not be how to build a show car thread. But I have taken the car to some shows a won a judge's pick at Ponies in the Smokies.
