2012 FORD MUSTANG stop start

The gauge will return to real time mode if no buttons are pressed for
four seconds. Peak g-forces are displayed as shown below.
•PAC - Peak Acceleration g Forces
•PdC - Peak Deceleration g Forces
•PLG - Peak Lateral Left g Forces
•PrG - Peak Lateral Right g Forces
1/4 mile mode:To enter 1/4 mile mode, do the following:
1. Press MODE until “9tr” is displayed.
2. Make sure the vehicle is at a complete stop at the beginning of your
course, then press ENTER to confirm.
3. The display will show “CAL” to indicate mode has been entered. Do
not move your vehicle while the gauge displays “CAL” or you will get
false readings.
4. Begin your 1/4 mile acceleration when the gauge lights the LED bar
graph and the display reads “Go”.
Note:If you have reaction time turned on in the Setup mode, the display
will change from “CAL” to “trEE” and the LED bar graph will change from
yellow to red. When the graph is fully lit, the display will change to “Go”.
During 1/4 mile mode operation, the gauge will calculate 1/4 mile time
(ET) and speed (mph), reaction time (if activated in the Setup mode), and
peak G’s. The 1/4 mile timer does not start until the vehicle starts
accelerating unless you have reaction time enabled. If reaction time is
enabled, the timer starts whenGois displayed. Accelerate through the
entire 1/4 mile distance in order for the gauge to provide you with results.
During 1/4 mile acceleration, the gauge will display an increasing number
which is your calculated speed in mph. When the 1/4 mile distance has
been reached, the gauge will display “Lrun” (last run) followed by “rt”
(reaction time) if enabled, “Et” (elapsed time), and “SPEd” (speed) at
the end of the 1/4 mile.
The gauge will display results once and then display “Lrun” and flash a
bar graph.
•To review your results again, press B. The gauge will display your
reaction time, elapsed time, 1/4 mile speed, and peak G’s.
•To save your results as your new best, press A to display SAVE, then
press B to confirm.
Note:Saving a run as your new best run will overwrite your previous
best run. The gauge will automatically save/overwrite your stored last
run each time you make a new pass.

•To view your best run, press A until “brun” is displayed, then press B
to view.
•To view the difference between your last run and your best run, press
A until “dIFF” is displayed, then press ENTER to view.
•To exit 1/4 mile mode, press A until “donE” is displayed, then press B
to confirm, or press C to exit. If you need to exit 1/4 mile mode before
accelerating, press the C button. The gauge will also timeout/exit
1/4 mile mode ifGois displayed for more than 60 seconds.
•You may view your previous 1/4 mile results at any time by entering
1/4 mile mode and then press C to view your results.
•The gauge returns to real time mode when exiting this 1/4 mile mode.
0-60 mph mode:
To select 0-60 mph mode, press the MODE button until “0–60” is
displayed. Make sure the vehicle is at a complete stop at the beginning
of your course, and then press ENTER to confirm. The display will show
“CAL” to indicate mode has been entered. Do not move vehicle while
“CAL” is displayed or you will obtain false readings.
During 0-60 mph mode, the gauge will determine your vehicle’s 0-60 mph
acceleration time in seconds and also G-force. Once “Go” is displayed
and LED bar lit, accelerate your vehicle to 60 mph. During acceleration,
the gauge will display increasing mph. When 60 mph has been reached,
the gauge will flash LED bar and display “Lrun”. At this time, bring your
vehicle to a stop in a controlled fashion for the gauge to view your
results.
To view your results, press the B button. To save your results as your
new best, press A once to display “SAVE”, then press B to confirm.
Saving a run as your new best run will overwrite your previous best run.
The gauge will automatically save/overwrite your last run file each time
you make a new pass. To view your best run, press A until “brun” is
displayed and then press B to view. To view the difference between your
last run and your best run, press A until “dIFF” is displayed and then
press enter to view. To exit to Real time mode, press A until “donE” is
displayed, then press B to confirm, or press EXIT.
You may view results at any time by entering 0-60 Mode and then
pressing C to display results. When is “Go” displayed, 0-60 mode may be
exited prior to beginning acceleration by pressing EXIT. 0-60 mode will
time out and return to Real time mode if acceleration is not started one
minute after “Go” is displayed.

60–0 mph mode:
To select 60-0 mph mode, press the MODE button until “60-0” is
displayed. Make sure the vehicle is at a complete stop at the beginning
of your course, and then press ENTER to confirm. The display will show
“CAL” to indicate mode has been entered. Do not move vehicle while
“CAL” is displayed or you will obtain false readings. During 60-0 mph
mode, the gauge will determine your vehicle’s 60-0 mph braking distance
in feet. You will need to accelerate your vehicle from 0 to 60 mph and
then safely bring your vehicle to a stop for the gauge to make these
calculations.
Once “Go” is displayed and LED bar lit, accelerate your vehicle to
60 mph. During acceleration, the gauge will display increasing mph.
When slightly more than 60 mph has been reached, the gauge will flash
LED bar and display “StoP”. At this time, bring your vehicle to a stop in
a controlled fashion for the gauge to calculate your braking distance. You
must reach or exceed 60 mph; stopping the vehicle before “StoP” is
displayed on the gauge will not allow results to be calculated and
displayed.
Note:If the performance gauge does not correctly display your 60-0
stopping distance, cancel the run by pressing the C button and perform
the vehicle calibration procedure (see the Vehicle Calibration section),
then retry the 60-0 mph mode.
When 0 mph has been reached, the gauge will display “donE” followed
by your results for 60-0 mph braking distance. The result is displayed in
feet. To view your results again, press B. To save your results as your
new best, press A once to display “SAVE”, then press B to confirm.
Saving a run as your new best run will overwrite (erase) your previous
best run. The gauge will automatically save/overwrite your last run file
each time you make a new pass. To view your best run, repeatedly press
A until ”brun” is displayed and then press B to view. To view the
difference between your last run and your best run, press A until “dIFF”
is displayed and then press enter to view. To exit to Real time mode,
press A until “donE” is displayed then press B to confirm, or just press
the EXIT button.
You may view results at any time by entering 60-0 Mode and then
pressing C to display results.
60-0 mode may be exited prior to beginning acceleration by pressing the
EXIT button. 60-0 mode will time out and return to Real time mode if
acceleration is not started one minute after “Go” is displayed.

•For track sessions, it is recommended to run 41 psi (283 kPa) hot for
the OEM tires, front and rear.
•Depending on track temperature, ambient temperature and driving
style, you may need to reduce the starting tire pressure by as
much as 4 psi (27 kPa).
•The starting pressure may be lower in the rear tires relative to the
front tires to achieve 41 psi (283 kPa) hot.
•Reset tire pressures to placard recommended pressures before
leaving the track.
•For improved track performance, Ford recommends
,
available through Ford Racing. See your local Ford dealer or go to

•
Your Boss302 is equipped from the factory with Brembo 4-piston front
calipers and unique, high-performance rear brake pads that will provide
excellent performance under normal driving conditions. Ford recommends
the following bedding procedure for race track driving be followed.
Note:Restore the vehicle to factory specifications prior to driving on
public roads.
Brake burnishing procedure for race track driving
If the vehicle has to be driven on a track (racing) or in severe driving
conditions, the following steps must be performed on a closed course,
not on public roads:
•
Burnish: 30 burnish stops at 60-0 mph (96-0 km/h), 0.4g deceleration,
one mile (1.6 km) between stops. If the vehicle has more than 200 miles
(322 km) on the brakes, skip this step and proceed to the Fade stops.
•Fade: 20 fade stops, at 65-0 mph (105-0 km/h), 0.85g deceleration or
just below ABS activity, no dwell between stops
•Cool down: Minimum of five mile (8 km) cool down route, if on public
roads (no brakes) run at 60 mph (96 km/h)
•Recovery: 30 recovery stops at 60-0 mph (96-0 km/h), 0.4 g
deceleration, one mile (1.6 km) between stops
•Cool down: Minimum of five mile (8 km) cool down route, if on public
roads (no brakes) run at 60 mph (96 km/h)
