Chris, give it a try next time your there. I think I told you the wrong oil in the rear when you asked me! Sorry.

i have tried your setup, and modified it to the following, which suited me a little better:

40wt oil in the front
45 wt oil in the rear

and i have harder springs on too - will report back when I find out what springs i have used!

I found the setup to be very "flattering" making the car easy to drive fast, best setup i have found for southport to date, so i think i will adopt it!

Cheers Chris!

Must admit my car was sooooo easy to drive at Southport. Did you see it? Everyone who did said how good it looked! ;D
