Hoyhoy.
Had some more fun @ Wakie last weekend, first corner last Thursday, done a beautiful 180% & then snapped in the opposite a 360%, I still don't know as to what happened, but's thats me.
Then on the Saturday with official timing I had a bigger loose, that ended with a massive air jump & nose dive into earth.
Lucky old fart me, no damage, which I can't believe.
But I kept on trying & had some fun, no P.B.'s, just some 1'10", which I hadn't had for 12 months.
The track was icy cold with no SUN all day, bugger.

Found a marked improvement with changing the lower control arm front bushes.

These were custom made by Fulcrum (95 duro) & still in good condition after a number of years.

I had these made from a product called Acetal (commercial nylon) after doing some researching.
Time will tell as to how they survive in the Little Blue Girl.
Hoyhoy.
Just pulled them out for a look & after two trips to Wakefield Park towing a trailer & doing several full days, they came out like new, so back in they go.
These bushes just don't flex @ all & are self lubricating.Attached FilesHooroo. Eddy
