Northampton Motorsport - any views?

These guys have been recommended to me by my ECU manufacturer to set up my car on their rolling road - any views??

When I used to have Peugeot 205s they were well respected in installing and setting up after market ecus such as Emerald and OMEX for the track oriented cars. I also think a lot of caterham/locust type owners used them. They used to have a good reputation for suspension set up. All this was 8 or 9 years ago, and obviously things can change, and I haven't used them for that period of time. Might be worth asking on another forum if nothing else comes back on here?

Well I used fhem for suspension work in April, however it's just been to centre gravity what a difference.

If it's an Omex, I'd strongly recommend them; they got the Omex in my TVR working properly, and MOT compliant, after two other places had failed miserably. Troy's a really nice bloke, and seems short on bullst. They also look after my Westfield, and I have no complaints about that, either - stuff gets done, to spec and when promised, which is a pleasant change from just about everywhere else I've ever been. OTOH, if your work is very model specific and not for a Westie/Caterham/MEV/DAX, I'd consider going to a more specialist place.

BTW, I believe Ultima get their cars mapped there. One was arriving on a trailer when I went over there once.
