Money off Geo in Abdeenshire

Post by DavieK » Mon Mar 28, 2011 10:29 am

Michelle has just pointed out that there is a deal on at Clark Motorsport for getting your Geo done. If you goto Groupon.co.uk, register and choose Aberdeen as your city (or any other city for that matter) you get cheap deals in the local area. The initial check is available for £23 instead of £78 and then as normal your adjustments are extra.

I'm pretty sure the elise needs new shocks so not worth it but the Touareg will be going for a check up.

Ride/Height 110/120mm

Front Camber 1.0
Rear Camber 2.2

Front Toe 0ut 1mm
Rear Toe In 2mm

That's a good starting point, you could be more agressive with camber but it does effect your braking etc ...

Anyone know a track biased setup for an S2 111R. Previous owner did a 'Waspy' setup down south but I do not know what the settings were. :?

"Waspy" was a Sinclaires (now Essex Autosport) setup that they wouldn't give out the details of. Sure it worked well, but can't see it being a magic bullet - I'd get Willie at CLCM in Edinburgh to set it up. Andy just asked him to set it up quick for the 340R and Walshy then went on to say it was the best set up 340R he'd ever driven. For this deal, no idea what the settings were, but Andy might have a record of them (or they might have gone with the car)

Merci buckets to all for the input. Will look through all of the paperwork that came with the car and see if there is anything in there....As you can see from my avatar the GEO is definately well out and in urgent need of attention :P
