If you’re not gapping me by at least 10 seconds a lap i’ll be disappointed

haha he said nothing was hanging off and there were no holes in it so that was as far as he wanted to go

If you’re not smashing kerbs are you going fast enough?

We are booked in with alex next weekend for an alignment and to shim up the rear beam

+1 on that, Driveshafts fall out with a gripper ez

Cheers thats really useful

How did you find the A052s while they lasted? From what I've read they're the fastest semi slick out there, just don't last very long!

For whatever reason they don't come up for sale particularly often. It's worth keeping an eye out on the facebook pages, I saw this one pop up earlier https://www.facebook.com/commerce/listing/1209266579742631/?media_id=2&ref=share_attachment

lol not sure, can’t remember if I paid that much when I got them! Did you have to drill a hole for a riv nut to bolt in the P-clips? I vaguely remember seeing a hole in the beam in roughly the right position anyway?

That's good to hear, I had no issues removing the old one so should be simple enough! I like using some dome nuts when disconnecting brake lines, IMO it's easier than finding something the right length to keep the brake pedal down. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/373204251002?var=642061031485

The easiest way to visually tell if its a factory cup (not a cup pack) is the red calipers, or if the bump strips along the door are a black plastic rather than body coloured. The only way to 100% tell is if it has a physical key, not a key card, then its a cup.

Bit of a trek but AW motoroworks in Great Dunmow is well known for renaultsports, highly recommended

There's lots of us going to Oulton on the 19th with javelin, everyone's welcome https://clio197.net/threads/track-day-meet-for-2023.66405/page-2#post-751938

I agree, despite being the slower car it feels way more involved and exciting to drive for me which makes sense considering one is heavily modified for the track and one is not. Very biased though ofc after spending obscene amounts of time and money on the clio.

Not guilty….maybe :flushed: I said that too, I felt like if I knew how to drive it properly it’d go a lot faster. It’s really impressive for an essentially stock car that feels completely normal on the road.

They’re not fastened to the bumper at all, they just sit around the fog light holes. It doesn’t sound very secure but there’s practically no movement in them at all

I think @PITA has the PMS shifter.

Very nice, I was tempted by this one when it came up but didn't have the budget ready in time! I would keep the rest of the trophy decals IMO, I think they work.

Good progress as always, surprised to hear you need a cat to meet regulations! Always assumed a straight through exhaust was standard in a race series.
