Alignment/suspension set up near Marlow/Henley/High Wycombe

Porter · 27-02-2012, 12:15 PM

Hi guys,

I know there are a few CSLs knocking about Marlow/Henley/High Wycombe, so I'm hoping someone can steer me in the right direction...

I have swapped the suspension on the car and put some limiters on the RTABs (that was fun). Now, despite my best efforts at lining up the RTAB carriers and matching up the ride height, I am sure the car could benefit from some setup attention.

I am after someone in this area who can set up a CSL's alignment and, if I'm feeling flush, do a corner weighting on the new suspension.

Any tips? Help much appreciated.

Or Backdraft Motorsport in Milton Keynes, Mark did a good job on mine, spot on.

Thanks guys - some top tips there. I will give both a call.

Hopefully it's a fairly simple exercise - I've not got adjustable top mounts or control arms.

Any tips on the settings that work well for fast road and the occassional track day?

Wheels In Motion in Chesham are also good.

Booked into Backdraft on Tuesday. Really helpful sounding team there.

So, went to see Backdraft Motorsport. What a brilliant outfit. So refreshing after a shocking experience with another company in the same field some time ago.

Not only did Mark make a cracking job of the car, but the whole experience was just right. From taking the time to see how the car would be used to talking me through the whole process, it just worked.

I cannot recommend them highly enough. Very very good. And the car's spot on.
