Hi All

Its a standard J15 one of Jeremys last running on a Zetec SE 1.6. It has rod links all round and the Caterham uprights on the front and Sylvas own on the rear
Any base settings to begin with would be appreciated when i asked Jeremy this question it was adjust it to how you like it type of answer many years ago now.

Thanks in advance

Hey Nick,

I originally had mine (Fury) setup at TSR where I think yours was for a while but then went and had it set up properly by Andy at AB performance and its much better now. Could maybe still do with a little tinkering but it is much more stable through the corners now.

Yes i had the car at TSR but i didnt really ask him to set anything up as i had no base/start settings anyway.
I took it out last w/end and it had a bit of oversteer in it so this w/e i softened the rear stiffened the front and ran on 17 psi front and 20 rear and it was very nervous even in a straight line.
Hoping to get it up on axle stands this weekend and try to add some settings, if no replies i will start with the Riot settings in the CKC pull out ive got.

Saw an earlier post of yours would love to meet up at some stage.

Thanks

I can send you my Riot settings but it's purely for track use so probably wouldn't be any good for you.

Have you tried contacting David MacBean at Sylva? http://www.sylvasportscars.co.uk/

The track settings might be a bit extreme, good idea for David Mcbean i will send him an e-mail.
