DAMPERS

The controlling influence on any suspension system is the damper. Its operation is paramount in containing the adhesion of the tyre to the road surface, and ultimately vehicle grip. In the world of Grand Prix racing the saving of a tenth of a second per lap is very significant. These small savings are only gained by detailed scrutiny and the same attention to detail is given at IGR, regardless if the damper is for a Grand Prix car or for a road going Westfield.

The personalised service offered at IGR covers all aspects of damper procedures. From servicing and routine maintenance right through to re-valving and characteristic development.

IG Racing specialize in repairing and rebuilding obsolete dampers such as Armstrong and Lamborghini Countach units. Bespoke parts and seals can be made to rejuvenate these old dampers when the customer wants to keep their cars as original as possible . This has been achieved on numerous occasions for companies such as Classic Team Lotus, Hadfield Restoration, Sid Hoole Racing and Peter Denty Racing.

Damper matching and data analysis is assured using the latest damper dynamometer technology.
