Just another note to promote Center Gravity. Car went in for its annual check (ok 2 weeks ago, just too busy having fun in it afterwards). We already knew that both Track rod ends would need changing as Chris had swopped one that failed 9 months ago, but now wanted and needed both to be replaced. This was done, but also found that the offside Track control arm also needed to be replaced, although both taken off and checked.

All put together and a few tweaks with the settings on the geometry and now it feels and handles fantastic. I though last years GT setting was good, but this surpasses anything Chris has ever done for me. Front camber and toe in has been reduced and the results and grip are amazing.

True test will be when we have a little rain, but I just wanted something that complimented the car, as the daily commute had become a little boring. But this certainly peps it up. All I can see at the moment is that the steering is heavier to get it into the corner, but once in it sticks like glue. Well off to have some more fun.

You're in Tamworth and never been to CG! I do a 200 mile round trip to visit him, so get yourself down there!
