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.

If I had a brain I would be dangerous.

I spent a few hours today cleaning the Clio. It had not been cleaned after its recent trips to Mallory Park and Blyton Park and was covered in tyre debris. Also, @EthanMenace had hit a some of the "track furniture" at Blyton Park and that left some marks on the passenger side of the front...

I have discovered that the afternoon footage from Blyton Park did not suffer the same fate as the over exposed morning footage. Here is @EthanMenace's fastest lap. Here is my fastest lap.

The idea of having second gearbox sounds like a good plan.

I have had a look at the GoPro footage that I captured at Blyton and the front camera footage is all over exposed. This is the best I could do with a bit of post production with @EthanMenace vs @Tarticmonkey

A few of Robert Baxter's finest photographs from Blyton Park on Saturday.

Yes, the joy they bring and the responsibilities you have to deal with. It's okay they grow up at some point and you get your life back.

The car drives better without the spacers on the rear, but the rear end looks awful without spacers as the wheels get lost in the arches. I think in the future we will start every track day without the rear spacers unless we are having any stability or handling issues.
