i was never satisfied with my installation of Ultraseal. the theory of the product is unquestionable. in practice however i never got rid of the wobble. and it is much more pronounced after you give teh car the berries or brake hard. i liked the idea, but it didn't work for me so i had it all removed.

Looks like a good day and some expensive machinery there! I would have though you'd get a higher top speed than that as Snetterton's back straight is LONG - it must really slow up accelerating (relatively speaking) at the higher speeds? i hear what you are saying C_W, but my Radical set up is geare...
