CVA Shocks

Scrub what I said above from the record.

I am totally fed up with them this evening!

No doubt it is the pistons to blame, but while the Durga suspension feels decent on the bench, it just isn't working right (for me at least) on the track.

Experimented with a front roll bar tonight - and ended up with MORE steering and a lot more stability too!

It's not supposed to be like this, so obviously the CVA dampers are allowing the car to roll far too much in the corners, creating loads of strange handling as the tyres unload and get extreme camber on them.

Had a quick blast with a friends 501X - same tyres (although newer), same sort of setup with one-way and camber, but it was SO much more secure on the track, must be the dampers. Hurry up #54028!!!

Otherwise had a nice evenings racing, thumbs are getting there, Durga will be soon enough!
