I'm prepared to put aside a a day to drive up to Warwickshire for a geo.check, having been convinced by the arguments put forward by contrubutors to this thread.
Now concerned about effective communication to secure a booking at a date and time that suits me so........

Thanks guys

Finally managed to contact Jayne at C of G. Jayne was full of appologies for not coming back to me but apparantly chris has been away.

I'm booked for the 10th October for a full Geo and strip and grease of the bolts. So i'll be done for Donington and it will be very interesting to see the diference.

To those of you who have had the geo done that are also regular trackdayers, what settings did you go for? I need my car to be useable on the road on a daily basis and i don't want my tyres to wear excessively whilst i do want the improved handling for trackdays too.

Talk to Chris; to a certain extent it depends on your personal driving style & the wear patterns on your tyres.

Here are mine Rich but bear in mind my car is lowered and this meant slightly excessive camper on the back tyres (well, outside of Honda recommendation, anyway). I suspect Chris will recommend stock MY00 settings with less front castor.

Not having a lowered car, this is what he put on mine earlier this year. Yet to take it back on track, but even on the back roads, it's more stable:

I had mine done recently and had the 'fast road' settings put on.

IIRC I have -1 degree 10 minutes of camber front and -2 degrees 15 minutes on the back.
