New track-focussed Clio 200 owner in Dorset :)

Hello all!

Bought Paul's hill-climb / track-focussed Clio 200 from KTR last month.

It's a well-sorted car with some choice mods that include Akrapovic Evolution, Gripper diff, Braid wheels, B14s, Powerflex bushes & mounts, Safety devices rear cage, race seats & harnesses.

It's my daily driver and does it very well, once you become accustomed to the noises it makes!

Had a great time at Thruxton last week, few 182s there as well as a 200T Cup Racer. Getting to know the handling characteristics and Thruxton's quite a ballsy circuit, so really looking forward to learning more about how I can drive the car nearer to it's potential. The rear rotating helpfully (without the need for correction) is a brilliant sensation & the diff pulling you round chicanes is very entertaining!

Winters tyres going on soon; looking forward to more track days next year :smile:

i remember seeing the KTR add and thinking 'what a greatly specced car'. congrats on the buy.

Welcome along! I live in North Wilts but I'm in Salisbury quite often, whereabouts in Dorset are you?

Thruxton is most definitely on my list for tracks to go to!

Hi Benno,

I'm in Bournemouth; Thruxton's great fun & some good value days there at start / end of season.

Looking forward to booking the next one :smile:
