SPA - in the original sense!

The very early ones have the more massive plastic diffuser the way the GT430 was revealed instead of the later Elise looking plate work.

Thanks! Briefly give notice when you pass by with your 340R next time😃

Do it right or scrap it! ( … or you do it again sooner than later properly as I did ☹️)

Elise S1 Standard - 22 years, 99.000 km Elise S2 SC - 13 years, 46.000 km

Adjustments I use:

Serious Days – 400 km Nordschleife and 400 km Spa – and the limit was not the car!

Back out again!

To check the applied differences on our own we ran a GT430 Sport and a GT430 side by side on a race track with exactly the same Ohlins settings, same ride height and same wider wheels/tyres. It was amazing how much distance the GT430 Sport gained against the downforce dragged GT430 on longer straights. Of course, as expected the GT430 Sport was losing some time in high speed corners. But in our case the GT430 couldn’t compensate its additional drag with more cornering downforce. As always, there isn’t a general significant benefit for any track with fixed aeros. Race track characteristics seem to be pretty essential for the lap times of the two GT430 variants.

Yours and Jimmy's information confirm my kind of "CoP" I can provide again (now corrected by the one doubled in UK) - here are the #1 - 8 out of 8 GT430 Sport:

It holds up very well - what it is meant to be.

What are your best experienced Öhlins damper settings (Front/ Rear clicks counterclockwise from max COMP and max REB) in relation to certain race tracks?
