My gearbox is still not quite right. You have described your issue as "notchyness". Is is that you cannot change quickly and you have to wait for a split second after taking it out of on gear before putting it in to another gear? If so make sure you give your clutch a really good bleed. It could...

On track days most of the time we are both in the car, I am not particularly light, so I would expect the car to be carrying an extra 80 to 90 kilos of weight compared to other track cars. It was suggested to us that we had graining on the front tyres on the last set of Direzzas we used because...

Are the roof bars staying on for the track day for extra “aero?”

You are filling me with confidence. If it is awful we can go back to a tamer set up.

We have just booked on to a MSV track day at Snetterton on Monday 2nd June 2025. It will be a chance to push the car with the new geo set up to see what it feels like on a track that we are both familiar with.

I got a cloned Chinese knock off Clip back in 2020. When it was cracked properly it did not need to be reactivated and just worked every time the software was fired up on the laptop - there was no pop up or other messages about reactivating it. I did have problems with one version of the Clip...

I might have a terrible memory but I think that both @R20BTG and @Helpimonfire had general issues cured by replacing the throttle body but I do not think that they watched the throttle butterfly in action.

We took the Clio to AW Motorworks today to get an alignment done. The gearbox had been dropped out of the car a few times since the last alignment so we knew that the alignment would be slightly out. We also wanted to see if more camber would help with tyre wear on the outside edge of the front...

You could try uninstalling Clip and then reinstalling it - it may give you a temporary licence for about 5 days. But, I would try Iain's idea of another throttle body. A few people have had odd issues which have been fixed with a different throttle body.

I bought a gearbox over the weekend. It was a 197 gearbox for sale for £100. It was described as working when it was removed. Now I have got the box I am not sure what we are going to do with it apart from take it to bits and see what is inside? It came with a free driveshaft - but I...

How did you solve the problem?

You work with some very well paid ground workers.

If the problem is with the airbags/seats then you might need CLIP to sort it out unless you can get everything back to how the car thinks it should be. If anything has been removed from the original configuration then the airbag system often gets upset.

Jeez. I had a few days off over Easer, ate too much chocolate, ate too many hot cross buns and now I can barely think or type.

It is the wear from summer of 2025 through to Mallory Park this year that we think we need to sort out with extra camber. At Blyton we had a new set of tyres on.
