My manual did not come with the additional information for the Track Pack. Did any of you guys have it included with your manual?

Aaron,
oh really, I guess no one got it then. I'll talk to Abe and see if he knows anything.

Does anyone have the track setting for the 07 Exige S with Track Pack? Are the settings the same as the 06 n/a Exige with track pack? I didn’t receive a supplemental in my manual and I want to get my car set up for some upcoming track events.

Why would they be any different. The weight and the power increase is nomimal for the most part.

On my previous car, the height setting recommendations were based on number of turns which could then easily be checked by counting the number of threads above the collar. Does anybody else use this method and know what it should be on the factory track pack suspension? I tried using a ruler to check the height using the 110mm recommendation but I found it difficult trying to guess where the center of the top bolt is.

If you know someone with scales, I highly recommend utilizing them to set the corner weight. If you lower the car just by turns, you may end up with a setup that handles better in one direction than the other. It was kinda cool that my car, with dummy weight = to me, was cross weighted at exactly 50% before we lowered it!

I found this link on another site. It's not Elise/Exige specific, but seems like pretty good info none the less:
