MK BEC suspension setup
I know there is bound to be a post on here somewhere but was wondering what settings anyone had their Protect dampers set to.
BEC are quite light at the front and was looking to see if anyone had any advice.

Start by making sure you have springs less than 300-350lb as supplied as standard.

We have found that using the 350Ib springs up front has helped us. On the original (bad) front suspension geometry there is not enough dro, before
hittng the upper TRE stres spoint. There is also too much bump steer when using springs of a lesser rating with the original suspension mount position
- we have had ours relocated to improve things... but there is still some way to go but we now need to improve the upper wishbone TRE angle.
The original Indy suspension design is full of flaws.

Intresting Hellfire.
After my third track day and speaking with the Caterham Surrey chaps at brands hatch and my mate, I have gone for 225's, will see how they feel
once on.

Hmmm, my front suspension is set quite soft and although I would like more front end bite, its not as twitchy as a Caterham I drove which felt more
stiffly sprung and resulted in a far more nervous drive on bumpy B roads.
