Default DB1.5 ish

After racing my db2 for the first time and it going so well I thought I'd dig out the db1 that was collecting dust and make it as close to the db2 as i could and it was easier than I thought and being tested tonight here is how it ended up

That's smart. Doesn't look like a lot of work either.

Sadly I'm not testing it tonight because of work. But I'm sure Iain will be along later and let us know what it's like

After driving the DB2 last week and then driving this one tonight all it lacked was a bit more bite to the steering, next heat tried a newer set of staggers on the front and it felt better,next i changed the front links to the most outer position on inner and hub and that made a hell of a difference alot better and more of the turn in it needed, improving my laps and fastest laps all the time, So far this car is awesome to drive and cant wait to see what it goes like on a bigger indoor track at Torquay,the track we raced on tonight is a tight and twisty GT12 track and really does suit this quite well

Testing will continue next week,watch this space

I raced both of these today and there was hardly any difference between them although I would say the db2 just had the edge still working on the 1.5 to get it as near as i can to the 2
