Hi all, just received my new shocks and I'm looking for a specialist garage to set up the Geo and do the corner weighting of my car. Any ideas in the South West???

You could try the motorsport place at Thruxton http://www.west-tuning.com/

or there used to be a chap in Peasedown St John just outside Bath, Dave Pillinger. He used to look after my Caterham when I lived that way. Now its been a while but I believe he and his son still run a bike engined single seater and do quite well. I know he has doen corner weighting for people in the past.

I've recently used a chap called Dave Gallop of Track Developments near Castle Combe. The guy is an absolute genius and set my TVR up perfectly balanced with Driver only so it's set up purely for me in the car. He's real old school and doesn't use any fancy gizmo's apart from the corner weighting machine and really knows his stuff.
You normally need to allow 2 weeks for booking as he's always got work on.

If you dont get anywhere with those, Corin down in Plymouth has the full 4 wheel alignment, toe and camber system at the tyre garage, can do full geo and weight balance, linked to a system database to help optimise the setup or put it back to factory.

I havnt used it, but I trust Corin.

I don't need the weighting doing, just 4 wheel geo checked and adjusted.

Anywhere in Exeter that does this please????
