And finally a picture of the new ride height. I'm sure most will disagree with me but i think it looks alot better. I like the standard look. 80brett lifed it about 30mm from where it was.

Wouldn't it handle better on the track if it was lower down?

Fractionally, but it will only make a bit more tail happy so i'm happy with that. Also it will be even more of a surprise to the 'francised drivers' (the guys wearing only clothing with their cars brand on)

Yes and no to handling better, lower helps cornering
But with bumps and dips, there is hardly any suspension travel so the axle will hit the bump stops, forcing the rear end upwards

Yeh it was (the first two at cadwell were done with a knackered axle) but Brett (off here) overhauled and replaced the axle so it was sweet as for this one.
