Re: Escort Mk 2 1300 Slalom

today we started working.

First thing is: in some Corners we got slipping Tyres but the LSD work very well. So we found out that we got 1 Tyre up in the air in tight corners.

We found out that we need more damping way because the shock absorber was complet on block. On Saturday we go to a fella who stopped racing his Escort and we buy his parts he´s got different shock absorber so maybe the problem could be solved by Saturday.
