Decided to start preparing it for track. Sticky tyres, upgraded brakes etc

After witnessing a huge accident on track decided to add a cage. Custom Cages fabricated it for me.

Re-fitted some of the interior

Modifications off the top of my head:
Custom Cages cage
2x Sparco Evo
2x Schroth 6 point harnesses
Various ticky tyres
Ferodo DS2500 and DS3000 pads
Goodridge braided lines
Brembo discs
Moroso baffled sump
Hardrace bushes
Hardrace engine mounts

Next, KW V2s and slicks.

It was stored at the Nurburgring last year, this allowed me to clock up a couple of hundred laps in it. Fellow Clio 200 owner/member Jim_RS in the passenger seat below.

Also did trackdays at Le Mans, Silverstone, Rockingham. Unfortunately, I snapped my alternator belt at Spa-Francorchamps so that ruined that trackday but a mate lent me his GT3RS so all was not lost.
