Preparing Your Mustang For An Open-Track Day - Preparing For Battle
The '99 GT still had the factory-original battery, which was obviously pretty crusty. Rather than simply clean off the terminals to comply with NASA's safety regulations, we went ahead and replaced it. The battery tray bolts turned out to be oxidized and unable to remove without breaking, so we had to replace them as well in order to properly secure the battery (very important in road racing). One last check was made of the car, including the serpentine belt, the radiator, hoses, and so on. Everything seemed to be in working order as there were no leaks or cracks.
