just had car on super tracker at work. Set camber to pretty much as close to 0 as possible being 0.2 and 0.3. Tracking was miles out. Plus 7 each side so adjusted that. Next job anti roll bar to fit back on and wire temp gauge up.

Does it need the ARB for drag runs? i.e have you done back to back runs for a comparison?

I thought you were already in the 11's

no 12.0 at 131.2mph is quickest at crail i have done. I havent got the money to spend trying things out and making minor changes as it is still a road car i use and i would rather keep it like that. I aint on a good wage tbh.

It doesnt take money to undo a bolt on the ARB you nugget

Run with it connected at front....
Run with it dis-connected (you dont have to remove)

It doesnt involve money.

exciting stuff today.



one of those to fit back on



due to using slam panel lowering plates, had to chop the arb lowering blocks to make the arb clear the down pipe



all faced up nice and flat with some lovely engineering swirls



really nice cumbrian day so ireland, slick and vxr james all sat about outside drinking some stella.





i decided to clean some of the crap off the exhaust pipe on the corsa. used some metal polish called peak. worked quite well.
