    project 'showroom' 172 cup

    And here she is still in all her glory and in super condition 5 years on from when James first had it. If anyone is interested in the car please let me know as it would be nice if it were kept in the Cliosport community. http://www.flickr.com/photos/92189705@N05/8380525229/...

    project 'showroom' 172 cup

    Hi everyone and James, I see you're back in the Clio world again. Well to keep you up to date on the Cup I still have her and it's been used all this time as a 2nd car, it's only covered about 3000 miles per year so it still only has low 40k miles on it. It lives in the garage most of the...

    project 'showroom' 172 cup

    Sold to me, over the moon with the car, it's a real minter. James, made the boat with 20 minutes to spare and she ran perfectly the whole way. Got her washed and took the wheels off to clean them when i got her home so don't fear it'll be well looked after!! I think it's time to enjoy it now!!

    Starting build on a 182 Track Weapon!!

    Another trackday went very well yesterday even tho it was at sometimes almost undriveable on track, flat out up to 5th gear we were getting wheel spin due to the standing water which all added to the fun. It did however dry up as the day went on and as ever the slicks made an appearance. In...

    To start with mate I can't speak highly enough of the Bilstein coilover kit so your talkin £700 there to start with, If you fancy an odd trackday the H&R camber adj bolts did improve the handling yesterday. Depends what your budget is tho, I think I went slightly over mine to be fair but sure...

    Starting build on a 182 Track Weapon!!

    Yeah the clio wud be quicker round the track than some std 120/130bhp elise's but the 111s and 111r are a bit harder to sicken! I would maybe have more grip running on the toyo's than they would running on road rubber so braking and corner grip might be in my favour but I start to suffer a bit...

    Thanks guys. I deal in tyre's myself so getting my hands on a set of toyo's isn't to hard!! They are well worth the money for the difference in performance over a road tyre when the car is in track use as mine is. Quite soft tho so don't expect too many trackdays out of a set of front...

    Tacky or not it's a track car so it suppesed to be a bit of fun. 1. Not interested in making it look like a DCI so I can blow of Saxo drivers. 2. Don't want it to look like the cover of Radio Times. And yes it's just had 4.5 ltrs of Elf's finest for the trackday.

    The good old trusty Team Dynamics with the Toyo R888's will be on this time tomorrow nite. Yeah just use the std 182 wheel for a bit of road driving.
