    The QV and 246 would have a six inch difference if they put the jack under the wishbone of the front or rear wheel ....... you really can't lead a Horse to water, ..... and drown him :p

    You don't jack a wishbone to assess stiffness.

    In anycase if the spring rate is softer at either end, it will droop sooner.

    To measure chassis flex you apply force on one corner and measure the load on the opposite corner.

    I couldn't open the door on the QV if I jacked the front wheel or parked with a wheel on the curb

    More of an indication of your QV I think.

    After all, it was sweet.

    As we come out of hiding from the virus... the car groups or people doing organized drives , are getting large numbers to events:

    People want to use there cars and what better way then a drive into rural areas in a car you enjoy.

    I'd like to say but the cops monitor public forums but it's an observation run so that means people will be driving slower than normal to get the answers to my questions :)

    I like to make the questions as esoteric as possible without being too hard for Ferrari people :)
