I know it is much stiffer than stock, but there is still some lean in the corners. Anyone know the spring rates?

How much do the cars settle when the driver enters?

Nathan, 2500lb/in, 4:1 arm to spring ratio.Skinny drivers make no real difference the more stoutly built amongst us may sink the car by 10mm

It seems that UK cars are not as stiff as those at Spa.
