Reduce the roll
Posted: Tue Nov 17, 2020 6:44 pm
Hi,
I have a question about shock absorbers.
My Elan was fitted in 2009 with Koni sport special for fast road at the rear. And at the front there are TTR + fast road springs shocks fitted in 2009.
I find the ones fitted a bit soft, even with the maximum stiffness settings, maybe due to age, so, in fast corner, my Elan roll too much for me.
I contacted TTR and the rear Koni sports specials for fast road are the same as back in 2009, and the front fast road springs have become slightly stiffer, the shock absorbers have been upgraded with upgraded oils etc.
I planned to change all my shock absorber and springs, and for the rear, there is two choice in Koni : fast road and for Race/Rally/Hillclimb/track days.
Anyone tried the Race/Rally/Hillclimb/track days ? Does it increase the stiffness too much for a road car ?
