I'm not sure what you wrote there I think it says "they're what I have Chris " Funny how one letter can make all the difference

Yup, he sets up a good car. He also doesn't recommend things you don't need, but he will make you buy Quantums at some point...!

To be fair though, after having them fitted I had the best track day I have ever had at Bedford a few weeks back. They really are that good.

If you're doing it over the winter then cool but if you want anything done before the national then you need to call him NOW and ask if he can slot you in.

I know he's got a lot on between now and then, mine and Max's included.

Going all the way to MBs for a geo sounds crazy when you've got Phoenix so close to you.

Phoenix is still over a hour away i used blink last year for a geo and it did exactly what i asked for and got a very good service from them.

 

the truth is that setup is not enough for the power i am now running, im hoping to get a little drive soon in a car setup by matt which will be over 320hp, and im hoping to make my final decision after that,

blink is within 3 miles from where i live and i will be going back there unless matt Bentleys setup  takes my breath away 

 

the truth is the distance is not relevant if you get what your after

its not just a geo im after its also advice based on what the car is doing at moment  to iron out its short comings 

 

Also matt helped me at snetterton last year and would like to repay the favour if the test drive of the other car suits me

 

:)

What spring rates are you running? I bet its too soft. Blink all the way for me! Matt Bentley advice is a good shout, bung him a pint and get it setup locally. I imagine Matts advice will be buy Quantums with stiff spring rates and get all that play removed from your steering. Let him drive it at the National.

As I have my rear clam off at the moment, you mention the heat shield, where were you looking at getting the nimbus? would you make it yourself seems just to be rolled and pop rivet, air flow holes look to be the trickiest bit making them look oem
