Getting used to it ...... Again
Discussion
New engine, chucking a load more power after rebuild ..
New rear tyres as 6" iron bar saw off last ones on 1st run out of garage
New ARB drop links front and rear
New rear ARB bushes
Slightly harder tyre pressures ready for loading of Le Mans equipment
Damping slightly harder ready for Le Mans
Brakes that properly work again after cracked servo pipe found, explaining poor brakes after rebuild ..
In need of setting up on new MA chip
All told, the Griffith is essentially the same old beast, but it now goes and stops better again, the handling has changed a great deal and the addition of the original (and a little more) power means its all change again ..
It's going to take some time to really get used to the new Griffith, but I think I'll have fun trying, the run to Le Mans will be fairly reserved given that I need to learn my own car again ..
Bearing in mind I'd hardly driven it this year anyway and then to go through all these changes in one go ... transformed.
