He's braking too hard because he's braking late. No fluid.

I was just going by the distance from the inside shoulder for each car. The red rustang seems to be traveling in a straight line and in the second photo the white rustang is angled to the inside shoulder. Could be from the impact.

Yes, but the red Mustang isn't slowing down. The video, which I can't post shows the red Mustang going faster than everyone else and misses his braking point before the curve. The White Mustang is already beginning his turn when the red Mustang plows into him.

Yeah, I figured. Shipping would be an issue as well. I guess I'll just have to wing over and drive yours. LOL

Not a problem currently being fully rewired as was getting sick of the smoke escaping the 54 year old wiring
Would be just like driving a right hand drive version of a 1969 dart with a 360
 
A P-51D Mustang (G4-P, serial number 44-14245) nicknamed “Floogie II” of the 357th Fighter Group escorts a damaged B-17 Flying Fortress of the 96th Bomb Group, flown by “Woody” Woodson during a mission.
“Woody” Woodson states that his ship had lost an engine and a second was beginning to fail, leaving his aircraft alone behind the formation over enemy territory. ‘Floogie’ responded to their call for help and provided escort.
The image was taken by the waist gunner aboard Woodson’s B-17 who coaxed the P-51 closer in order to take the image.
Woodson stated: ‘We were hit by flak on the bomb run and lost an engine. A second engine was giving trouble and would not keep up with the formation. We suddenly felt very alone in the skies over Germany. Called the fighter channel on the radio and miraculously a lovely P-51 showed up on our wing in a surprisingly short time. We knew his wing man was above flying cover so we began to relax. A waist gunner had a 35mm camera with color film- a WWII rarity. We coaxed the P-51 closer and closer and this is the picture that resulted. It still brings a lump to my throat when I look at it.’ © IWM (FRE 6100)
