Thats how my GT4 felt prior to the front end rebuild(shocks,rack,bushes)Now it steers perfect
yea ok,smooth ,shocks and all that like new,all of the car is fresh that's main reason im keeping her plus great value for the bucks and I think this carb rally stuff is realy going to take off , if enough young one's get involved it will be good fun.
OK ,like the smart looks on people when they hear the noise,think ive scrapped the chin na just the hook girls.
Hi PP,no not much stiffer,never drivern it hard enough to feel flex and body has no cracks visual to eye.
what? not a problem for what? not a problem for everyone else, maybe....and stiffer springs would only make it flex more. can't see much point in stiffer springs in a boxer.
I.G. organised a very successful early V12 rally last February, halfway between Melb and Syd that got a good turnout. 10 Daytonas, 2 275's, Lusso, etc. Now that he's sold his car (and it was a peach) I doubt if he'll have the same motivation in 2007. I'd like to agitate to do something similar in Feb/March 07, maybe in the Snowy mountains or on the Bega coast. 12 cyl cars including BB's. What do you think?
I don't think you'd ever overcome the flex, when you look at a stripped BB, the chassis looks like a stretched and widened 308, the main rails are not any thicker and I would guess that the engine gives relatively more stiffness to the rear. I suspect that early Ferraris were softly sprung to help conceal the flex rather than to give a comfortable ride, relying on the stiff XWX sidewalls for cornering grip. But they weren't alone, MB SL's all had huge scuttle shake, right up to the 80's.
great idea the carb rally last weekend their were over 20 cars 4 daytonas ect JM in his 275gtb.Man to contact Brendon Quinn or Dollars Delaney.
