    Jake's RB Clio 197 Track Car

    Update; Got the dash in and battery hooked up at the start of the week just to make sure it starts, which it did. So dash came out again and everything covered up and sanded down ready to paint. I really wanted it to look good so took my time and got everything (I think) covered up and prepped...

    My Corbeau Pro Series were XL and very comfortable for me. Although I do like the look of Sabelt Titan seats, I just forgot about them when I brought the Corbeau lol

    Jake's RB Clio 197 Track Car

    So this weekend I started removing more weight from the car. I've never had a proper dedicated track car, so my plan is to try get it below a ton without the need for fibreglass panels. Started off Friday with removing the windows. Called it a day when this happened, went to work and started...

    Cadwell update; Car was faultless other than the rear bumper, Amazon quick release pins somehow came undone on the right hand side just before lunch so cable tied it back together and luckily lasted the rest of the day. Brakes were really very good, pedal feel felt alot better than the...
