    What next....

    Your probably right that slicks mask bad driving. I’m in no way a good driver I would say just your average lad who enjoys the experience on track. It was very hot all day and sun was beaming so I think that’s why they went off. I certainly wasn’t over driving the car I’m not good enough haha...

    197 xenon.....?

    evening all. My clio 197 xenon passenger light is flickering when I go over bumps mainly but can notice it every now and then on a normal smooth road. Any ideas I presume it’s a bulb first and then maybe the ballast? How much and where from? Thanks.

    Laguna silverstones

    hi all. I've just purchased some Laguna silverstones as sole track alloys. I have a few questions.... They are 7j would these fit my 197? What tyre size can / should I use? I wanted just the 215 or 225 but I doubt 225 will fit now will they? As I say it's solely for track work so safety is...
