PS2 v Ragnotti/Cup Caster angle...

[Eddd]

Anybody know how mauch the caster angle was increased over that of the Ragnottti/Cup for the PS2/Silver Cup? That seems to be the only real change mentioned in the press release, aside from the option of the aircon.

How exactly was the caster increased and can it be retrofitted?

Check out my post in the Exterior... section - "172 handling transformed" which details a package of geometry changes for a 172/Cup. If youre at Bedford tomorrow, pop over and say hello and Ill explain more...

Just wondering how much the caster has been increased over the Cup/Ragnotti for the new PS. Anybody know? How is it done? A different part or is it adjustable?

Im also wondering if the later Cup/Ragnotti had the increased caster or was it only the PS that is getting the updated spec?

In other words, are they still building the Cups alongside the PS, and if my car is a late production Ragnotti, would it have the increased caster already included in the package?

My Renault garage here is not likely to have a clue...

Its no difference - the Cup, Ragnotti and PS2 are the same car

So whoever was responsible for that press release should get canned...

I sure hope you are right! I really dont want to be waiting for a already obsolete car. If I wanted that I would have just ordered an Evo VII!

cups/ ragnottis etc etc are the same car so will have the same changes. they are diff from the 172.

BTW jeremey, were still waiting for our cups/172s/meganes/espace (bout 2-3yrs) and cant shift the laguna for all these dead cheap Jap cars......and the Euro is still getting stronger!

ARGH!!!!
