    Suspension setup - again

    Yet another question about suspension setup. . . .

    Sorry

    I have a slight problem with my setup (I think), on acceleration all is fine and it
    behaves quite nicely.

    Under deceleration (lifting foot of loud peddle) a little more concentration
    is required to keep it on the straight and narrow.

    Tracking, toe , camber and castor as per Dax settings.
    No bump steer.
    Front: 235/60/15
    Rear: 295/50/15

    Any advice gladly accepted

    Blue skies,
    Pat

    I would say the problem is your tyres are to big, my mate suffers from the same problem.

    215 front and 245 rear are plenty big enough for any Cobra.

    I've often been asked, "What do you old folks do now that you're retired?
    Well, I'm fortunate to have a chemical engineering background, one of the things I enjoy most is turning beer, wine, Scotch and margaritas into urine.

    Life's good, live it.

    Apparently you need a bit of rear wheel toe in for stability under braking. I'd check this as well.
