Today at Atelier Kaz - ex-Honda R&D, F1, Indy/CART engineer

As it was wet yesterday, couldn’t carry out the test driving session
so waited until today.

Even just leaving my place,
immediately noticed the huge improvement.
Not surprised after finding the broken bush on at least two of the
old dampers.

As the alignment service is not done yet and being as new kit,

even when the car is lowered to the ground from the lift.

settle the new kits and then re-adjust the ride height again
before carrying out the proper alignment session.

Not much to report while I was adjusting
the ride height.

Can’t even remember how many times I went
up and down on the lift and then removing the
wheels to make the adjustment.

Then, just move the car a little but don’t drive until
all of the rubber bushing bolts are freed at the
final ride ...
