Hi Mike,
Useful data, thanks.
Do you understand what "Checking Range" means? The range of some settings seems quite large?
(Also, was there a problem with the cut and paste of the 'Rear Camber deg' lines?)
cheers, Peter

Hi Peter
I'll email you the original. I was surprised by the tolerances - they don't inspire confidence!
My reaction was to assume the ideal setting is in the middle of the two extreme's but whether that is reasonable or not I cannot say?
