    RS Clio 200 Gordini - Center Box Removed Vid - Pg.25

    Now i am used to the 133, i switch the esp off straight away but last week i forgot to do it and found that when going round a round about quickly the front left was either braking or power was being taken away from the car to make it straighten up. I did it a few times just to make sure it...

    new tyres - recommendations - anyone?

    Sorry I think you have the wrong test they used a mazda mx5. Conti was best all rounder and best wet tyre. Best wet tyre and track tyre was the yokohama neova. I was in costco today and they have conti sport contact 3s (99.99), PS3s and some PS2s.

    RS Clio 200 Gordini - Center Box Removed Vid - Pg.25

    On the brakes front, i found the same with my r26 the standard brakes couldnt cope with repeated braking from high speeds. I replaced the pads with xp8s and skimmed the discs, they felt awesome after that.

    That heat has probably had an effect on the brake fluid, try changing that before your pads it might be a cheap fix. Good to hear it was hot though, i go next week. Cant wait.

    RS Clio 200 Gordini - Center Box Removed Vid - Pg.25

    I find that very strange regarding the brakes i ve spoke to quite a few 200 owners who have tracked their car and taken it to the ring and have had no issues. I must admit my fluid did boil on the last afternoon I was at ring but wasnt a massive issue in the wee twingo. Might just be the brake...

    If RenaultSport Didn't Exist?

    Probably a Triumph 675 or GSXR 600/750. Car wise, nothing grabs my attention like a Renault. I ve driven a few different cars to mine and for cars that are similarly priced in the 10-15k mark there is nothing that gets close. You've just got to look at any car of the year review in any...

    Alien Green 200 Cup *** New AG 200 (number 3) from page 85***

    I d agree with mike, i ve found that you can feel when the car starts to act in a slight different manner. At the ring I didnt look after my pressures well enough and the sidewalls got a battering. On the twingo, though, it wasnt until last week that i start to notice the car oversteering a bit...
