local track at Holbeach, luckily there is quite a few quick guys there so racing is always pretty close.

I went with pretty much the setup that Corey posted with a couple of changes.

I actually preferred the car with the shocks laid down one on the rear, it made the back end a bit more stable, the carpet we run on is low grip so it helped with consistency.

I'm racing at the BIWS on Sunday, as the track surface is a total unknown to me (indoor athletics track), I think I'm going to go slightly softer on the oil, lay the shocks down front and rear to 2nd hole from the bottom and go with a shorter camber link on the rear. I'm also going to reduce the rear roll centre back to standard from the +0.75mm. All of this should lead to a neutral handling car.

There are already 5 T4's at the local club, the guys who ran the box setup had tons of traction, to the point they were almost grip rolling even though its low traction carpet - personally I think the original setup allows the car to roll a little bit too much.
