Hi guy's just spent the day out at wakefield race track. Was afun dayaround the track. Got to say Astra haddles okay on a stock set up eg wheels, Brakes, springs.
My astra has been flashed by Matt and I've got a 3inch dump to a 2.5 system and a 2.2l air box. I was getting 165 down the main straight and needing to back a tad comming into the 1st corner(stock set up rememebr). Anyway many people were surprised by the speeds and times I was getting. Got to love the sleeper look of these things.
So next mods will now be H&R springs konishocks and a whiteline swaybar Oh and a new set of front rubber. Totally chewed the front left tyre.

I was managing to get 1.20min laps.
It was my 1st attempt at the race track and had a great time.
Took a while to get the lines right and other stuff. Had trouble with grip really, could not hold a line and was getting a bit of wheel spin comming onto the straight and the middle corner.
I know it would be possible for faster times with a better set up but went well for a stocker.
get yourself a good set of slicks
