Hi Kevin,
Forgot you were on hols this week and called in to give some feedback and spoke to Matt. I'll maybe catch up when you get back but key points from the B3 suspension set up on the D3.
Handling - having had it on 2 cars already I knew what to expect and its as good as always.
Steering - now has much more feel - geometry changed or just a slightly lower ride height? Anyway it works

Hi Kevin,
I tested the car last couple of days and I am highly impressed with everything. The power, is amazing and more importantly it feels really safe to use. The traction is phenomenal. When out on a test drive yesterday, I had no choice but to drive over a pot hole in the road and it seemed to gobble it up! Whereas before in a similar car it would crash in and out of similar holes in the road if unavoidable.

Hi Kevin,
Given the fact that the B-Series suspension kit was fitted today and my journey back to Sheffield isn’t enough to fully run everything in, I feel I need to give you some initial feedback.
All the reviews and claims made about this set up don’t do it justice unless you experience the before and after for yourself.
If someone had said to me that this kit was developed by a team of Lotus F1 engineers in Hethel, I would not have questioned it.

Good Afternoon,
I have had a chance to let the suspension properly settle in and give the car some proper use now.

After scouring the internet in the pursuit of finding a remedy for the terrible standard suspension set up, and sifting through the large amounts of false promises and looks based ‘performance upgrades’, I decided to give Kevin and James a call.
