Seriously, unless you are competing, you are setting yourself up for a
bit of an uncomfortable ride (and a good reason why race tracks don't
have rail-crossings or potholes :-).  Definitely a bit of a bone-shaker
as a tourer.

I have been driving my little wannabee race car as a daily driver for
some time now - but recently have been driving the Rover (my new
project).  Getting back into the 'B and feeling my kidney's jolt around
over a rail crossing made me wonder how I did it for all these years.
