Thats just what I wanted to hear.

Fuzz,

Try the softer front ARB, and also raise the front pressures (higher pressures don't really work in the same way as stiffer ARB).

I would have also said raise the rear and/or lower the front ride height too, but you don't really have that option.

Question

Pavlo, why would running higher front pressures reduce understeer as surely higher pressures reduce the contact area? I can see it could help prevent the tyre deforming through the corner though. I thought people inflated their tyres on-track to reduce the wear-rate.

I believe the blue one was an R500, which the guy who owned the Noble said was quicker than his M12!

Fuzz, I noticed your brakes when you went onto the track (for your one session ) and thought they didn't look very standard - I can see they would be really useful on a track like that which had two pretty large big stops. Your car was well loud, particularly under load - sounded nice .

Before you start spending money, concentrate on the nut behind the wheel
