Track day at Aintree. Reluctance to start first thing was the only glitch. But once warm ran great. Driven at competition speeds we were both surprised how well the 320iS behaved. Played with some spring rates, fitted comp. pads and played with toe settings. Everything worked surprisingly well and was a positive albeit late start to the year's motorsport.
