Since you have been racing for a while, we were wondering if you would not mind disclosing what suspension alignment settings and spring rates have worked well for you. Our suspension is fully adjustable, except for the front 1” dia. anti-roll bar. We are running the following: Balanced corner weights 205/60-13 tires 215 lb/in front springs 600 lb/in rear springs 2 deg front camber, .9 deg rear camber 4 mm front toe out, 0 rear toe We have taken some tire temperatures across the treads after some hot laps, but we have not completed these tests. and plan to make further adjustments prior to our next race in March 2010 We will appreciate any advice you can provide.

We finished the restoration at the end of 2007 and have had 2 successful seasons of racing in the historic class. If you are interested we uploaded a couple of short videos on youtube of a test session at Levels Raceway, Timaru, NZ. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uk3dA6fdYho http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NpQIM-5ACvY Hi,
