Today marks 2 years of ownership with the 197 .. happy birthday

Two updates. Finally got a passenger seat in, so we’re looking much better and will also be a lot better for track passengers / tuition! New set of ds 1.11’s on as well, so I’m looking forward to getting these bedded in later tonight

Got a new seat and harness for the passenger coming for the car. Harness came today and went to fit it and adjust it ready, and I think I’m going to take the black one for me and leave the red for the passenger .. :D

I haven’t a clue I don’t really time my self on track! I’ll try and work it out from the video

I wasn’t timing to be fair, but I think around the three minute mark?

Went to Bedford on Monday, had a very successful day! Cars set up perfectly, just need to change my pads to something more trust worthy than the ds3000’s and then some stiffer springs for the yellow speeds. Very happy with the car, excited to get some more done this year! Met up with a few...

Weight saving!

The picture I posted is with me in it, so it’s not that bad!

Another visit to Alex’s today. Oil change, changed the alignment a bit and had it corner weighted and balanced etc. Car feels spot on now, much more direct than what it felt like on the way up! The rear needs shimming to bring the toe in, cambers ok where it is at the moment, one side is a...

Going on the 27th of this month :)

First track day of the year booked .. Heading to Bedford, I was meant to have driven mine this time last year, but the steering rack didn't let me .. So i ended up blowing my friends MG up very excited to get there and see how the clio goes around it

Another one for Alex .. He's maintained and built my car over the past two years of ownership. highly recommended!

Clean as ever! Looks good

Finally got hold of the radiator today. Old ones out, new one goes in tomorrow and fingers crossed it sorts my issue out.

Done some digging. Turns out it’s the radiator / hose that’s caused the leak this time and not the water pump Starting to lose love with the car recently, small issues keep popping up and it’s really demotivating!

Id admit it if it was mine :tearsofjoy: But it is my missus’,I just prefer driving that over mine so I class it as my car:sweatsmile:

Had Alex rebuild my box last year, solid job and had no issues with it!

So a trip to Alex’s the other day bought up a water pump leak. Checked today and there’s 0 fluid in the reservoir tank. so should be getting it booked in for new belts and water pump unfortunately sooner than I wanted. But while this is being done I may be throwing in a set of catcam 403’s in...

Looks great! Is there a template for the rear cut outs?

yeah it was pretty good! im interested in what the figures would Be like a year down the line, might have to book it into engine dynamics again and see if It’s changed At all. Belts are being done end of this year / next year and also hopefully camming having a selection of inlets would be nice...
