Im fine matey, just dying to get the car going again.After the ring last september she hasnt turned a wheel. Need to sort out the cooling issues, only managed 3/4 of a lap on the ring and she was very close to the red so had to coast the last quarter every time something not working right somewhere. Got a lot of ideas running through my head at the moment to try improve it though. Id ask for a passenger ride in yours when its done but if im reading correct (400bhp!) i think i'll pass. I'll only end up wanting the same again! Didnt expect you to get another one so soon? You could have had mine if you wanted, I aint got the time to do anything to it. Looking forward to seing it done though matey, all the best.

Looks like you're using adjustable tei bars on the rear. I've got a pair on the rear of my S1 and I've been setting the wheels to run parrallel, what do you run yours at ?

I've found several sites that advise toe out , toe in and parrallel but I've not found anybody else who's using them on an RST before.

Just poly bushed the rear of the S1 and I've set them back to zero.

Would still be interested to know what others have tried/are set at.
