The Tony Viper chassis is already capable of having camber/caster adjusters fitted. These would simplify and potentially improove wet weather handling. The 3rd bearing was not used often when running ICA and 100 National and would not be missed. Adjustable front torsion bar would be another simple chassis tuning device. Rear torsion less commonly used in anything more than soft if at all as the 'problem' is usually front end grip. I see no fear in these proposed changes. TKM Clubman will still run with the original 'fixed' chassis. I just wonder at what point 50 mm axles would be permitted as older chassis start to be less available.
The 30 mm Tony Viper is generally quicker in the wet than the 50 mm Viper.
