Well, after popping out to the USA a few weeks ago, for a few days to visit here.
and seeing plenty of these
(the new DW12 looks a lot better in the flesh than in the pictures)
I then flew to Arizona to watch these playing in the desert
Which look like this when you remove the...
Went to the Lotus Festival that took place at Snetterton today.
Thankfully the weather remained dry, and the crowd was one of the biggest I've seen at Snetterton (as big as for the BTCC).
The only reason I went was to see the collection of classic Lotus Formula 1 cars (hence no photos of...
10 days before the Nürburgring 24 hour race I was invited to attend the race, supporting one of my customers who was competing. Having never been to a race at the Nürburgring before (I’ve tested there a few times) I thought it was too good an opportunity to miss.
Armed with my plane ticket...
My 172 Cup was left standing in a garage for a few days while I was away on business, and when I came to drive it yesterday, the engine kept stalling.
When the engine revs were left to drop to idle (ie. Dipping the clutch to come to a standstill) they would momentarily drop to 0 and the engine...
I just bought new discs and bearings for the rear of my 172 Cup.
Have opened up the bearings and just want to check which way they go in.
At the moment the bearings have what appears to be a protective plastic ring on one side of them, which is protecting a protruding rubber seal on the...
My 172 has developed a very annoying knocking/vibration under acceleration.
It is particularly noticeable when reaching 5k rpm in 3rd and 4th gear, or when accelerating heavily from a standing start.
It also seems to be more evident when accelerating out of a right hand corner.
When the...
Was at the Nurburgring yesterday spectating after testing there Thursday and Friday. Noticed three English Clios lapping.
Here's some pictures of them. Don't know if they're anyone off here.
This guy had a nicely caged up Clio and looked fairly serious. Was lapping quite quickly, but...
I need to run some wiring (3 core screened, 24 gauge) to behind both of the rear arch liners on my 172 Cup. I haven't removed the liners yet to have a look, and was hoping someone could tell me where the nearest grommet would be that I can get a cable out of to run to behind the arch liners...
Hi,
Do the Phase 2 172 Clios have a CAN network on them (not for diagnostics, just a powertrain one)? If so, where is it possible to access it (ABS controller is a favourite on VAG cars)?
I am interested in reading out information such as speed, rpm and outside temperature, so if anyone has...
