Wow !! Great response so far

Just to answer a few Q's JK Yeah ok m8 , will get it up on KS Do not want to get it posted everywhere tho , As i like to know the people myself who have said that they will attend , ( Nothing worse people saying yeah i will be there , Then not turning up on the day & Least i can chase the ones i know up

ED Really not a problem , How many cars you want to bring along , The more we get the bigger the discount you will all recieve There is not a problem of having to many cars there on the day , As they have 4 Laser alignment ramps That can be used @ anyonetime , Time wise it took about 1/2 Hour to do the alignment & Camber on mine , One of my best mods to date , For a very small amount of wedge!!

BOSS You will be very impressed with there set up , Sure you could get talking about some sponsorship for the ESC/ SIDC

Hammoc 1st thing Chris , Great links ESC Pulling together yet again

You will be amazed @ how different your scoob feels in the corners after this mod , Really hard to explain , But whilst cornering it feels as tho the car is trying to dig into the road , Grip level is un real ..

As for a date , I'am not going to contact them again , Until this list hits about 20+ peeps , As soon as we are @ 20+ i will talk to them about a date , As they are normally closed on a Sunday , But they will open up for us , It will not take long to get it arranged , So the more we get the better it is for everyone & the sooner you all get better handling cars

Tiny,

Would like to put my name down , BUT .........................







I had mine done May 2004 , ready for Japfest last year .

I had the adjustable camber bolts fitted to the rear of the car as well (they don't adjust as standard!!)

Indication of cost (what I paid May last year) was £146.69. Which included 4 wheel alignment, Camber adjustment (front), + 1 camber bolt (they only changed 1 as thecamber was way out on the nearside) .

The proof was in the driving, and round the track, it sticks, at Caslte coombe, I was told that I was cornering better than most (don't think it's my driving though !!).


Money well spent .


Nate.
