Default Fast road geometry set-up

Can anyone recommend somebody local (llanelli/swansea area) to do a geometry set up on my bugeye. Got a list of the prodrive fast road settings and just need someone to do the adjustment.

Phil.

Or try CJ Autos in Penygroes. Chris does all his own Prodrive settings on his rally cars.

Not yet, it's going to need doing before that. Only needs a tweek since I changed springs, front camber and the tracking is slightly out. Rears should be as they were.

Phil, I went to Melvyn Evans Motorsport in Hafod, between Llanwrda and Lampter - I had new shock absorbers, springs, front anti roll bars and drop links fitted.

They used the Prodrive settings and transformed the car, the best thing that I have done on the Spec C is have the Apex coilovers taken off.

That's the one as Richard confirmed, I think from memory it was £50 or so plus VAT for the geometry alignment.

Slight correction though, Dylan fitted the goodies and ME Motorsport did the alignment.
