Personally I would be disappointed if it was a trailer queen and all its life stories had been erased. And yes I reckon you have passed the greatest hurdle I am still trying to get past that one

my suggestion would be to lower it a tad more out back, and increase track width at the front. Go for about 2.5 degrees of negative camber!

Cool car!

impossible to say without knowing what your setup is.Basically, just a tiny bit of toe in, lots of caster, camber at 1 degree so it will still be streetable. Set up the car hard at the front and mellow out back. Go for a max 28 mm stabiliser up front, junk the one in the back. Use a Bilstein shock up front and a new set of Spica out back, etc etc. But otoh, please post in the correct thread, that is suspensions, and let's get back on this car.
What are this TI rep's setup points? Do tell!

Rik

Not sure what you mean? Is it the settings or the hardware?

Hi Jim,

Both, what did you install and how did you set it up...

Well, I don't think the Limeys and the Aussies will agree to that.

also, off topic it may be, but I would always recommend a RHD car for track use as most tracks turn clockwise.

I agree... but then their tracks are upside down.
I have a few boxes of original Ti Super stuff packed away, is there anything special that you need or have to have? I can't promise fast 'find' but I am going to start going through it this winter.

Bruce,

A friend of mine is having his (genuine) Ti Super restored in Holland at the moment and I'm sure he'd be interested in any surplus items ... assuming that Rik already has everything he could ever need . May I pass on your contact details to him?

Alex.
