Remarks – 3-time European Champion Reno Savoya is running prototype parts on his XB9 comprising of new front and rear geometry and suspension parts. The rear sports wider suspension hinge pins with shorter suspension arms and less rear offset while the front now utilizes pivot ball suspension with easily adjustable Ackermann as well as the resulting geometry differences. Having tested the parts since after the Euros warmup the parts have been performing well with the car now being less aggressive with more power steering. In terms of setup the Shark has retained his French Nationals setup only tweaking small things like anti-roll bars as well as raising the rear upper shock mounting.
