yep he's a stockport lad so by coming with us, instead of going cross country like he did on the way there, he was totally fecked

so are you going to try and really get them bald at silverstone? or get some new cups especially for it?

[s.mac]

I'm sure I could get stickers and back strip
It a plain silk Black boarder with transfers on top
he can do a print vinyl but didn't recommend it, although that's what Rob and Daz had.
you would need to fit it, not easy ....
pm me if you want me to ask if he can post

spare full set in the garage, I may keep the rears on, will check how bad they are in the cold light of day.

I did tip toe home from the motorway when the rain came down

Ahh good man, you made me feel sick though! lol

Who's Escos was that then? What you need is RWD full stop, not wrong wheel drive like you've got!

Ive never changed the camber on them, always set at -1.5

No wonder running -1.5 degrees (road settings)

I spoke to some guys who were in track cars and they suggested a new setting for the suspension, I was running hard at the front and a bit softer at the back, we changed it to a couple softer at the front and harder at the back. I could not believe the difference it made

Check the factory KW Clubsport sticky in the Technical section - always set the rear slightly stiffer than the front

On road yes - on track no. How many track days have you done mate? Noob!

Glad you had a good day Steve. You need a good amount of camber and a decent suspension set-up to take the Cups to a different level and more importantly, make them last MUCH longer. Get it properly set and corner weighted. It'll save you many $$$$ on Cups.
