control arm bushings?

Goodwood??? I hate you!

Been to Goodwood twice (stuck around Europe after the Le Mans 24hr in '04 & '08).
No better automobile event on the PLANET!!!

I went with the full purple Powerflex kit on my X (subframe included, not installed yet).

The Powerflex bushings make a noticeable difference in reducing geometry change due to mushy OE bushings deflecting under chassis loading & over bumps. A few hot laps around the Sebring 12hr track (with 5 on board) proved the Powerflex setup is worth EVERY cent!

Tire wear was also reduced.

I was there in 1999 or 2000, can't remember, I have the guide somewhere. Was working in London at the time, a friend said "Hey, you wanna go watch some cars drive up a hill?"

"Ok".

I had no idea what it was. One of these years, I'm going to take my son and go back.

I had no problem getting the ball joint separated, or the joint out of the knuckle. But I had to drill the remnants of the Torx stub out of the knuckle after the bolt was frozen.

"Hey, you wanna go watch some cars drive up a hill?"

That is the biggest understatement ever spoken! He should have said, want to see some of the rarest race & street vehicles race up a crazy narrow estate driveway, some driven by the most respected drivers on the planet!

I took my oldest son both times (12 the 1st trip, 16 the 2nd trip). He thought the Sebring 12hr was incredible, until he saw Le Mans & Goodwood.

I remember walking around the paddock area at the top and seeing Sir Sterling Moss just casually chatting with people. And John Surtees. And Jacky Stewart. It was surreal.

I was at a Lotus Owners meet at Goodwood in the 80's. Spent way too much money on Lotus souvenirs.
