the tyre wear looks pretty even, as lapping the steering wheel felt like going off but it was ok once at the pit.
the final spin must have been the deathblow.....
So the wheel alignment should not go off that easily just tracking.
I'm coming over soon man, hopefully with some sachs.
tracked on Bedford SW last friday, my first ever.
Right ta the end of the session it started raining, I was on the straight, got into the corner and furiously spun the car into the field :D
On my way back home I noticed my steering wheel was a bit off and the car was pulling a fraction to the...
I'd obviously go for adjustable suspensions at the same cost, but what Dave said here makes sense to me
so much that Id spend that money on front sachs or save up for AST
I'm sure Spax s a wicked setup, I know its just ridiculous but its the price that put me a bit off for a start
couldn't agree more, I'll be able to make the right choice after learning how to control the stock setup.
I booked 1 lesson but they'll provide extra tuition on the day, looking forward to it.
Next time! I'd love to meet and get private instruction at the track :)
I will Tony.
any specific place you would recommend?
thanks mate, the comments have been very helpful indeed.
I'm going to Bedford coming Friday, first objective is to take more tuitions and see how it goes :D
I have sportlines, after my experience with 2nd hand sachs I'd rather go for new ones and get them unpinned, that would set me back £900 + £200 for the konis, could still do it or try to find some 2nd hand konis
As much as I'd love to save me money I don't think its fun to track with stock dampers :/
Probably I'm a terrible driver but I hate the soft chassis response when you re giving it the stick
Having said that, my car s far from being a cup racer so maybe you guys are right and I shouldn't spend...
thanks for all the info, comments and tips posted guys
I've pretty much made my mind up on AST sportline 1 with track springs
I was gonna get the sachs rebuilt but I decided to put em on sale after getting the quote form BG, £657+delivery+vat in case the pistons need replacing, just slightly...
Im running sportlines on cup shocks atm and the handling s shocking bad, they're good at nothing but high street cruising.
I'm sure 800 quid Bilsten setup could give me more the that...i hope so.
However I made up my mind on one thing, whatever it'll be. its gonna be damping adjustable.
I really like what you said there, I want to have fun and I don't mind if the car puts me on the spot every now and again!
Didn't know your might loose some throttle adj along the AST r888 combo, I want that too especially because I've got very little experience.
I'd keep the Sachs but I'm dead...
