hey up everybody, i will be tracking my car in march and i've change a lot since last time i was out on track.
Ive sacked off my coilovers for stock suspension now with lowering springs.
Im going to go for laser alignment in the next few weeks and i am after a decent set-up for track, what does everybody else run for track.
Cheers dan

Im hopefully getting mine set up for track and road use.
Not sure if I will be using different springs to you but I will post up what the car is set up with.
Just need to get some springs and then I can book it in.

Re: Track Camber set-up on stock suspension
Ours is actually on coilovers but the fact you're going to be using it on track is why you should set it up with the extra negative camber, especially at the front to reduce understeer. You will need 'camber bolts' if you don't already have them but theses are readily available

Cheers for the info mate.
I've got camber bolts in at the moment but since moving from the colivers back to standard i've noticed understreer so hoefully this will get rid of that.
I'm starting to strip the car so its nearly ready for donington park next month
Re: Track Camber set-up on stock suspension
I have -1.5 camber front and -3 camber on the rear. Never get under steer.

Re: Track Camber set-up on stock suspension
Wow thats odd, wim dialed in 4.0 degrees caster on my car and its not realy a track setup. Feels pretty nice though
Re: Track Camber set-up on stock suspension
It is an odd setup I admit but it works for me car feels very stable on track..

Are we getting caster and camber mixed up here?
