    That's that weight transfer we were discussing - compare the balance to any pic here for a comparison.

    P.S. congrats going under the minute!

    I'd say it has something to do with the aero/widened fender kit. Anyone running it seems to have the MK6R front end.

    Yes, the load transfer certainly highlights where a wider track and lower centre of gravity can come in handy. It seems to be on acceleration judging by the position of the car in the corner but you would expect this to happen under braking right ?

    I did check out a few of those pics, thanks for that.

    Loving the A050s, fortunately there were no photos to highlight the big off on that turn earlier, took a little while to get the psi right on these, but once the were right they hook up beautifully.

    Looking forward to Lakeside on these now. Just need more power
