I wasn't at Worksop I was working down at RHR, but I knew I'd seen it somewhere.... Thought I was going mad!

Slightly off topic but does the SV on the new Cougar mean "single venue" because i haven't heard of it raced anywhere else

Get your setup up Rich! I might be persuaded to upgrade to an X6 then

The setup was the same as the one I posted recently, the only thing I changed was unwinding the rear shock eyelets to get a touch more droop. Also I ran the caster blocks spaced back, I like the front of my cars heavy for more on-power steering

Can't seem to find this setup, or is it the UK starting setup, as posted on x-factory's website?

The rear ride height is taking into account the thicker part of the chassis at the back, so if you measure straight from there to the ground it's 23mm

Also gearing is now 24/78 on the same Nemesis 7.5.
