    Yes. Chassis so much stiffer. NO flex in chassis at all.

    As much as its fia for safety it just makes the car improved. And you can feel so much more too. (except in wet at Mira on shit tyres and you slide into barriers. :hahaha

        Something like this maybe ? Had a good chin-wag with the owner last weekend @ the Ring about it... 1350 kg dry weight apparently with few extra ponies over the OEM 420 BHP.
        Makes for an impressive set of BHP/Tone figures :supz:

          Yes mate exactly like that. It's just an idea, but once I get ideas I usually try them out.

                          Cracking lap!
                          IMO.... Up the Rouge you have 1/2 a sec to gain where your off the gas & loose speed going up the hill + Stavelot fast right before the straight - flat out! you feather the throttle.

                          2m48s low to high 2m47s no problem :wink:

                              That's where my ideal lap time gains, my best thru ER and B2 gain 0.5secs each and still more to get........

                              Top speed up Kemmel now up to 141.7mph before breaking (gps speed), that all comes from being on the power earlier but just as important, staying on and not lifting.

                                Did you go to the Ring trackday the day before too? I'd imagine at the same relative pace you'd be a very quick round the Ring.
