As i got the feel for it the time started to fall off, first half a second then seconds, as the day went on the track started to dry out, With the rear sorted out it was time to put in some times,
By 3pm we had decided we could even rinse another 100th of a second out of it so we loaded up and went home.
The Fastest time was 47.27 and there was only 0.01 of a second between us.
All in All a very successful day testing and the Satchel chassis has knocked over 8 seconds off my time around Llandow, Anyone that buys this kit will not be disappointed, the grip levels are just unreal!
