Shock placement

[David Church]

Ok thought I would post this before I get slammed, haha.
On the Cougar ONLY, ie NOT the Cat, the rear shocks are much better on the front of the rear shock tower.
Ok I said it, now can we just move on please???:thumbsup:

[neiloliver]

DC, How would you define "better"? I have only run my rear shocks on the rear of the tower. I was told this would make the car safer but it would not be as quick per lap. Is this your experience?

I thought you was a rear man DC

It has made the car more agile without being too aggresive for a driver like me:thumbsup:

And who says I am not a rear man, I use Trish's rear end on the Cat:p

[simoncrabb]

Nothing to see here, move along folks...

Hi DC,

When u used your shocks on rear, did you mount wing position back as well? In accordance to the rear shock tower?

Looking forward to u coming to Torch at the end of the month:thumbsup:

[mikeyscott]

Err only first time I think, but I'll let you and Mr B sort out finer details.

I am just on for a good days racing and some nice bloody weather.

Mr B - oi leave my pit box out of it :(

I'll be the slowest so no contest

[Trish]

I'm Hungry!!

[mikeyscott]

Don't you lot get fed then!!

So what's in it for Mr B if he retains it or extends it?

I'll have a chat with Mr B later tonight as I know he's a very busy man with work at the mo.

You make me feel better though, I've finally found someone I can beat ;-)

[R666REW]

Braging rights isn't that enough for him?? How bout if he retains it
I'll buy him a mars bar?:thumbsup:

[mikeyscott]

I'll let him answer that.

[mikeyscott]

Spoke to Mr B and he wants a good days racing with some new faces.

[mikeyscott]

Dinner will be bought for the record holder at the end of the day.

It's over a 5m run. We generally run 5m qualifying and then 7m finals. Ftd qualifying I expect

[mw02veg]

does the meal come with a beer and a desert?? :thumbsup:

[mikeyscott]

At the end of the day I thought after racing we could go and get some food and if we have a winner we'll pay for their meal.

Fairly simple :confused: and hopefully we'll have a great days racing etc.

A meal normally includes a beer doesn't it and a bit of friendly banter?

Mike, drop me an email..

[mikeyscott]

Any questions re this please PM SteveB and also maybe take it into the TORCH section?

Steve will then reply etc.

Nathan has the advantage at the mo over the other potential visitors having driven the track all be it an a very wet day in November..
