That DVD is ok but, they should interview the owners I thought, just to say a few words about the history of the cars etc.

They did it with the others, like when had you feature on one of their dvd's Matt.

No disrespect to Nic or Bill Sollis but I found it all a bit tame!

Understeer and then looses brakes in less than 7 mins.

Time for some handling tweeks and some decent pads and fluid.

Oh cool, id never seen this

God knows what ive done to the brakes, they have never been right, I think it is the 7/8th master cylinder, but Bill said he had used one before and it was much better than this.
The rest of it is top notch, but i just cant get it to work, there is no feel to them at all


I also found out the next weekend there was -3.5 camber on the back so im thinking he did pretty well

TBH what Jon says is true. If I took the time to sort it out properly I would be a lot better both on the road and the track

No Nic, something like flat on the approach to Avon rise, lift of just before, change down(bit of heel and toe) to third on the crest heading towards traffic light. Let the car settle, hard on brakes, second and turn in not to early, apex and back on power heading for rumble strips on exit feeding the power in steadily... job done!
