Carl
what else can we expect from you except total commitment in not letting anyone pass you :lol:
Side walls on the tyre is really down to the pressures you are running and the adverse camber set up, if you were runing the H&R PSC system maybe you could of eased the problem with the tyres, but side wall strength is more with the Bridgestone AO48.
Hope the car is back on the road and it doesnt put you off flying the flag for the RS4 on the track.
Cheers

Maybe I'm going blind, but didn't see many RS4's being overtaken, lost of 'BMW's a Merc, new Mini and even a poor old Scirocco - and as for the driving......... although the brakes did seem to be bloody good.

Nice to watch though..

Did you add the H&R sway bars after the quattro Gmbh kit (including rear) was installed ?

If so, what type and degree of change did it give you ?

Where can I get the Quattro GMBH suspension and the camber kit for my RS4? Any source for those Pirelli Corsa tires?
Thanks!

the sway bars were installed after the quattro kit and added less (what was the word???) movement to the car; i mean the car is not "swimming" any more. hard for me to explain in english.... the body moves less (?)
