A partly succesful day out at North Weald this weekend, with a bit of "grass cutting thrown in"
My second sprint this year & my first "OFF",. Well I found out what the ASC switch does anyhow. Finished 5th out of 10 in my class so pleased with that, especially as the first 2 places went to an RX8.
a couple of pics of me trying to keep my foot down, this zed is standard, with what looks like too much body roll. I will be swapping out the shocks & lowering by around 30 to 40mm some time this year, along with some bushes. A very happy tail wagging day out!!!

Nice work Martin, I have thought about doing that sort of event and perhaps I will in the near future, looks like fun!

First point of call would be the anti-roll bars for me Martin, then lowering a little.

Tony.

Great stuff Martin, great to see you giving it some beans :), your zed does look a little high at the rear. As Tony has said, ARBs and lowering springs will help a great deal.

Thanks for the comments, all taken on board, next outing 10th May at Debden near Stanstead, if anyone fancies popping along I will have a pass or 2, a warning though it's a bit barren and portaloos + a chuck wagon. But friendly.
