Can't comment on Mocom's. But, as far as I know, Elites only do "Road" setting which is pants, or "Prodrive" setting that will rip hell out of the inside edges of the tyres.

Xtremes do a good in-between setting that is not as agressive as the Prodrive one but in my experience gives a nice balanced feel when cornering.

If there is one thing that Zak does know it's geometry settings

Xtreme also do this now so you could try them.

Mocom have done several time attack cars.

Zak @ Mocom gets a big for his geometry.

Last time, I had mine done by Dixon Motorsport, Race and Track Car Preparation, London UK, providing tuning services and 4 wheel alignment, Honda and Mitsubishi Specialists as they are open on Saturday and Sunday.

Dixon, Raymond and Ryan are all top lads.

Dixon and the guys will set it up to your settings or do a full custom one depending on how you want it to handle (depending on what you have adjustable).

Ryan at DMS has worked on Le Mans cars and has set them up using string in the past.

All three have Time Attack and BuddyClub racing experience so know what they're doing.

Another point to note is that they can do custom carbon fibre fabrication... something for the tart in you
