Hello dear oOplers,
it seems that most of the time, the UK drivers use the Ellis setup, the Oswestry one, with minor adaptations.
Of course I tried it, but I'm not very satisfied with the handling (sorry Ellis!). I feel the back of the car is too soft, it collapses on-power, even with harder oil and an antiroll bar.
Well, I tried this new setup, developed by the american driver Jeremy Felles and X-Factory's (and B-mag friend
) Paul Sainclair :

I found it really good, even on my tight astro track. Lots of steering in and out, great stability.
The only tweaks I made to adapt it to the astro was using heavier springs (AE greens front and AE grays rear), E-speed hangers and of course Minipins.
I'd really like to hear from others that tried or want to try it.
Edit : or any thoughts!
