Do you get on alright with it? I've been looking around at a few race foci. They all run 700f and 800r. That's quite a bit more.

We tried 700/900 and it was scary, lift off oversteer on every bend. Maybe if your on brand new slicks, but I'm rolling in doe with 100k race budget lol.
Do you know for any front arb's

I can ask about. You after an uprated one? I work at Leda suspension these days, we also have a sister company called Harvey Bailey. I can get you a quote if you want. I can use my old front standard one as a template.

Have you thought about stiffer front springs instead? No extra lift of inside wheel then.

I really liked the look of your side skirts/aero skirts?
Sorry if I've missed it but why have you removed them? Didn't they help?
