Matt's track/nurburgring RS250 Clio f1

Takes years off it imo.

Bit of NYE progress

Had a horrid wobble under throttle which I instantly knew would be the inner joint on the drivers driveshaft, I'd noticed some CV grease but had no access to garage until now to sort it but was too late as the joint had dried and shit itself so my fault but a recon from Renault is on the way at cost of £200 vs the £450 brand new.

Also fitted some led bulbs as for some reason the facelift doesn't come with xenons.

When I done the FL conversion I had a new wing painted as I'd worn away the drivers arch and was not paying £50+ for a piece of plastic so instead got entire wing for £50 so managed to get that fitted.

A friend of mine just sold his RS3 and had some nearly new CL RC5 pads that he gave me so I swapped out the DS UNO to keep for track and whacked in the RC5 for road use.

A good nut and bolt check and she will be good to go.

Front end and wing still needs wet sanding and polishing btwView attachment 130822View attachment 130823View attachment 130824View attachment 130825View attachment 130826View attachment 130827

Good find
 
I saw you're booked on Spa with Opentrack - look forward to seeing the car there. I'm going, and am planning on visiting the ring to watch VLN after.

So snapped the piece of shit bolt that bolts the gear box in place (properly shit design) so sourced an M12 12.9 tensile bolt and drilled and tapped it from M10 to M12 and fitted it all back up.

I've also made another purchase....the KW clubsports that where actually on the car when I sold it which is a touch as I've had them from new and also have the raeder spring rates etc on so gave them a clean up and ready for fitting c09b05e48eed7056613cb7fd2c82f11a.jpg65f0a2c0e34aadba9778ba30c084106a.jpg

So another month and another set of wheels...this time SSR Type F 18x8.5 et48 absolutely perfect for Megane. I also got this drawing done by a chap on Instagram who I met at autosport which I'll be having done on a big canvass for the garage acb8a84c65b049c2532b855117280bea.jpgc3008e5f5fd317a89d6baf3c4e07680d.jpg

So done track day at Donington 2 weeks ago and had an epic time although it was wet and very very slippery.
