What a smashing day at GeoTech. Thanks to Jason and any other Thames Valley folk involved in organising, and to guys at GeoTech for doing such an informative, efficient and friendly job of providing geo readings for the many cars that turned up. Lovely day for a blow out the winter cobwebs drive from wilds of Central Region too.

Yes, a good morning talking rubbish, drinking coffee and eating cake together with some car stuff.

Here's my pics:

I'll put a scan up of the sheet they print for you later but mine is scrubbing the front tyres, they are pointing to the right and the nearside front is out of tolerance camber wise too.

Not bad considering it's less than a year old and been geo checked after the accident according to my paperwork!

Paul, trouble is that the tolerances are very wide...
which whilst it means you can tweak, it also means the engineer has a nice large easy target to hit when doing a general setup. :wink:

Trouble with that is that my settings are outside of the Porsche specifications which makes things even worse!

Here's the figures:
