and my flaming MINI   Registered Member #7 Joined: Mon Oct 03 2005, 11:00PMLocation: Bournemouth Posts: 814 | Yep, went and saw roland on monday to ask about getting all the tracking, camber done and ended up booking it in yesterday to have it all done. MINI is now about 40mm lower and running 1 degree camber on front about 2 - 2 1/2 on the rear. No toe in/out on the front and standard toe on the back. MINI feels like a new car again and I actually really like the ride quality with the eibachs on.  | ||

I found it really well balanced - you could so predict what the car would do. Let em know how you get on at C'Combe | ||

Thanks so much for the ride  I just timed your 0-60 on video and must be 6secs or less and you were short shifting. Certainly does pull well!

If someone is new, and does not know the way, then I am happy to meet them at Fareham Sainsbury at 1930. Otherwise I will just make my way up to the Hill directly. I will be bringing a brolly...

If they do work might be able to let me take a half day holiday. I will know for sure on Thursday. Wonder if I should make a booking list for the night as I'm sure people will want a quick ride. | ||
