Hi all

Well I am truly amazed with the suspension on the car!

Its bloody amazing is all I can say!  It is a 1.5cm higher than it was, I would say the same height as Pete De's car but apparently that is optimum height for handling on our cars!  I took off and thought it felt very very tight and precise and from there I was blown away!

First corner and the rear stepped out because of the wet and very bald tyres and it was so controlled it was MINT!  I couldn’t believe it!

Over bumps it is so smooth and the roads I normally cringe to go over were no big deal and where the car would become unstable it was sensational and there was no clunking noises, as before it just did everything you would want with no effort!  Hit a corner and that’s when it became apparent how good the car was!  I took a very winding piece of road at about 160 and it was so stable and controlled and then in the wet did 120 and controlled slides around bends were easy!

Its is brilliant and the best thing I ever did!

Off the line it gets off much better and now and I can get a lot more power down but that was set to 6psi only.  I can come out of corners quite a bit harder without sliding out and this is with bald tyres so I can’t wait for some quality tread!

These guys are amazing and their service and advice was something you don’t get very often!
