Yes Chris, I am sure there will be a little white Clio coming pass me at Cadwell, I don't think the TVR is going to lap quicker than my old Clio,seeing that picture above, I am missing the car already, keep thinking, have I done the right thing selling it :(
Just watched my track car for the last 2 years being towed away on its trailer, by its new owner:(, its been fun though, over twenty trackdays in that time, what a great little car, thanks to everyone's help on here, and at trackdays over that time, thats made owning the car such a good...
Thanks, yes its great fun, Ive spent a small fortune on track cars over the years, but the Clio has been the most fun, and by far the cheapest track car Ive ever had, Ive not done much to the chassis, only a set of Gaz springs and shockers, a home made rear strut brace, and a OMP front strut...
It was going well Chris, until the gearbox broke, last session of the day though so not a big deal, 1st major problem ive had in 2 years and over 20 trackdays with it, so can't complain.
I tried some ex Radical dunlop Slicks on the front, and Ao48's on the rear on Wednesday Tony, but the tyre profile was a bit high "55", and because they were off light weight radical the side walls were just too soft so handling was a bit vague, but they were cheap at £10 each so who cares.
Great vid's, shame I could not make it, power steering pipe union leaking on mine, and I did not have the part to repair it, you lads just keep getting faster and faster, nice driving.
Ive always wanted to do the full GP circuit at Brands, but they are few and far between, and they always want a forture for them, but it looked like a good day.
What size are your are dunlop slicks ?
You look to be getting good traction out of the corners, are you running a LSD? not a bad lap time either for the international circuit, just timed your lap 2 minutes 9 seconds.
My Clio at Cadwell, with a few other Clio's.Running slicks of the front, yoko a048's soft compound on rear.

You might be interested in this video of your new car,from Rockingham last year when it still had the sequential gearbox fitted,around 6 minutes into the video,with flash of flame out of the exhaust:cool:.

Yes good to meet you Adam,what a great day, you was certainly getting faster and faster as the day went on,I was having to drive the knackers off the little Clio to keep with you on our last session,I was shattered at the end off the day,I did 170 miles that day,I am looking forward to getting...
Yes someone had just spun out on the grass,leaving a load of dirt and grass on the track,making it even more interesting trying to dodge those aswell,it was the last 10 minutes of the day so they just left them there.
