going to be an interesting read shimmy. was wondering what settings you've been using for the intrax on track? just had mine fitted (as per other thread ) and started out on the road setting that youve mentioned F 20/40 and R 25/50. would you go about 10clicks harder F+R on track to start with then adjust accordingly through the day as needed?

slightly softer might suit oultons kerbs and the bumps on the pitstraight near braking zone for old hall, but harden things up if some where smoother surface like donington?

Are you getting some spacers sorted for now then?


As for settings, depends on the weather - whats it saying at the mo?

yep, getting some spacers but not sure if going to be here in time. still have my 19" cups which will fit if needs be. weather reports seem changable, seems to be mostly ok : 14 deg and only a passing shower. so sounds like cup weather

might all change though

cheers

They have changed the models around Xmas time. These were over £3k new but I wil be selling for £2k if they come off at the end of my trial.

Sounds about right, around 10/15 or 9/12 depending on circuit.

Interestingly at Oulton when chasing ONeill and Lawsy i had forgotten to change from wet road setting so at the end of the day I was still 20/25 and running about 1m 58.

Did you get new springs from Nitron in the new spring rates?

I still haven't fathomed out what spring rates are on mine yet.

Did they come with Adjustable Drop Links? And how did you set them? with the car back on its wheels?

The 100/50 springs were off my intrax. They fit perfectly at 2.5" and 2.25" front and rear. Once I've done the comparison I will probably either fit the 160/71 or get some 120/60 to use and put the 100/50 back on the intrax and sell.

Drop links just used CSL ones.
