Well, the Piper cam really helped! Beryl was holding her own against a few more exotic cars at the VSCCA Spring Sprints. I was in the Preservation class (sort of 7/10ths racing / track day rules - only overtake on the straights etc). The suspension feels very well dialed in with much less body roll, pitch or understeer. Very predictable too with the Pirelli CN36 tyres. You can rotate the car at will and correct my dodgy line when I have to (helpful with my line sometimes!). The cam comes on song around 3,000 rpm and stays on song up to the redline. Pulls very well. I've noticed an extra 5mph on the straights compared to last autumn. The car didn't miss a beat all day, apart from losing another tooth on the ring gear (I'd lost two before and have a spare flywheel to fit, so now I need to pull the engine and fix that. But seriously happy with the mods. Kept up and tussled with Fulvia and Giuletta without a problem. The whole poingt was to build a car to annoy the Alfa guys (joking) and I have to say it worked.
