The last in a series of A-Spec orientated tunings for the Esprit. This time I used an SE rather than a GT but that really makes no difference that I can detect.

Softer springs and a greater ride height helped iron out some of the braking issues in the car but running 300+HP through road tyres is always going to require track knowledge of safe braking points in an MR driven using PD's 'understeer engine' :D.

I think this set-up is about as good as I can get her as changing camber by a point or two makes a noticeable difference to handling, which is usually a sign that the car is balanced overall.
