Helper Springs removed

Post by Track Boy » Sat Nov 26, 2011 7:31 pm

Just arrived home from a full day at Bedford on the long 4.2m circuit, great weather and a great day. Finally got the new Pirelli slicks on the car, adjusted the geometry for the new boots, removed the useless helper springs all round and managed to cut 13 seconds off my lap time from the last visit. Very happy with that, totally transformed the car in terms of road holding, handling, completely eradicated high speed and low speed over steer, big thanks to the guys at BDM Mortorsport for coming up with the idea.

Do you have a 3 or a 2? The helper springs were useless on the 2's, but I've been told that they were improved for the 3's.
