Looks like you had a good day. Brands is one of the tracks I quite fancy having a go at, do you mind me asking how much it was Gary?

It was £149 through the SIDC

Si - yeah it sits ok, but wasn't quite as good as i hoped on the track, still has a bit too much roll. Am considering going for a set of coilovers now.

Well there is quite a choice about Gary... I have been in a couple of cars with coilovers and it's a different experiance it has to be said.

Hey Gary, the car looks great out there

Get some coilovers and you`ll probably never go back to lowering springs again

It's quite a satisfying feeling assisting someone else to spend their money Cliff I have recently encouraged a full classic facelift and I'm expecting some verbal at the next local meet for that needless to say it was not on mine

Looking good Gary, great photos matey.

A couple of people i've spoke to would say coilovers should put to shame anything else on the track but would the setup be much fun on the rubbish British roads.
