    Fitting a stonking wing and running 600bhp before upgrading suspension is an interesting choice, lol

      The right choice isn't always to lurch to coilovers and uprated ARBs etc, especially with a car that is already so competent from the factory. After our first track day and about 1,000 miles of driving it on A and B roads, basic upgrades on the suspension were one of the first things we did on the M2. The Eibach lowering springs reduced roll and pitch and the spring rate is a much better match to the OEM dampers. It is widely recognised that the OEM springs are too soft for UK roads which causes a couple of issues - the car can become unstable when pushing on, and the ride is 'crashy' to say the least. The Eibach springs are about 20% stiffer than OEM and resolved both issues. It's hard to overstate the improvement, especially on bumpy surfaces where the car is much more refined and composed. We also fitted Millway adjustable front top mounts so that we could increase negative camber and this massively improved the sharpness of the front end. Experimenting with different geometry setups, we now have a car with a very neutral handling balance that doesn't feel overwhelmed by the torque generated by its engine. Testament to this, perhaps, is how well the car performed at Ten of the Best 2023 - 4th in the RWD class on the handling circuit and only beaten by a turbocharged Westfield, a Lotus 340R turbo and a 1,000hp McLaren 720S. Oh, and it came 5th overall out of roughly 70 cars for the entire event across three disciplines.

    Almost.... Feel responsible for the premature replacement of the front splitter as you were on the way to pick me up when the dead badger jumped out in front of you 😂 Glad to see back pre badger spec 👍

      It was 100% your fault, Geoff. Do you mean to say that Ben didn’t add the cost to your invoice?? I’ll need to have a word…

    For which car is this APR GTC-200 wing? Also mounting brackets looks different?
