You'll have to take me out in yours! I'm used to coilovers on a fully caged S2000 so 40mm springs on a soft Audi can't be that harsh.

I don't find it harsh at all, but then that's what I'm used to. I think the ride is pretty good. I'm sure it'll be softer that the S2000!

I will be there in one Audi or another (the Cab might not be back in time) but won't be able to stay for food I am afraid as I have other plans from 2pm.

Be good to put some faces to names
