Look no further! Fearnsport of Silverstone have taken the bold move to include new Ferrari offerings such as the stunning and well engineered 430's to line up next to the ever growing Porsche tuning business. Fearnsport add "the Ferrari seems to have the edge over the current Porsche models in terms of build quality, the chassis is very well thought out. Much more race car than the porsche has ever been".

Ride height and suspension set-ups have already been carried out on the 430's by this outfit who have a proven track record with vehile set-up.

Fearnsport had my new 430F1 on Saturday for some minor suspension adjustments. I wanted to lose the 4x4 ride height. After some careful measurements, we settled on a 20mm drop from standard.

The car looks 10 times better, feels sharper.. and still has enough height to negotiate speed humps.

Am taking the car back for a full geometry setup next week, to dial out some of the factory understeer!

Does 20mm really make that much difference????

If so, how much does it cost?? Do they do gallardo spyder's?

I'm sure they would be only too happy to set up a Gallardo, They have the latest Beissbarth set up equipment and still string up many cars that are unable to go onto the alignment equipment.

20mm tranformed the appearence of the 430 and i am sure it would be the same for many others.

Give them a call and speak to Andy or Matt. 01327 856993

Gee Rob
Now the 4x4 look is gone, it's time to do something about the Pansie sized wheels & brakes ? Then all you need to do is learn to drive it and find a shortcut at Silverstone to keep Glenda in his 997GT3 RS in sight ! LOL

Cheers
