Here's the original thread about the trackday, and a list of attendees. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?436134-Cadwell-Park-11th-August-RenaultSport-Day

It's a bit of a long shot, but does anyone have on either disc or hard drive the original pictures from the August 11th Renaultsport trackday at Cadwell? I have the pictures i'm looking for on my laptop, but they're too small a file size to be enlarged for printing (circa 100kb) What i'm...

Hi Guy's, i'm after the Car detailing, can anyone recommend me anyone that could do it with the next few weeks or so? Guy i've used before might have called it a day, as his phone just rings :S Ideally someone who doesn't mind traveling, i'm in Sheffield close to junction 30 of the M1 Thanks

500bhp in the original Mk Indy chassis is asking too much, Unless he spends money on the diff it will be flat out at around 120-130mph, yeah it will get there really quick, but when it comes to a corner it will struggle. I've had one of the original indy chassis and you could see it flexing on...

Not a chance of getting 700bhp out of that, the stock turbo's would need replacing as would a load of other parts, the most you'll get on the stock turbos with a remap is about 510bhp, with a few more mods you can get it up to around 550bhp, but that's about your lot. You must be confusing it...

Re: NW Rolling Road meet @ RS Tuning Daz with 30 cars this will no doubt run from early doors until late afternoon, are you giving out rough time slots for those that pay the deposit? As you may know mine's 4wd so it's not really worth turning up at 9am if i'll be running at 4pm, wouldn't mind...

Re: NW Rolling Road meet @ RS Tuning Tempted by this, i need to get the car on the rollers, just to make sure it's running ok, they can be sensitive to faulty sensors reducing the output by up to 100bhp or more. Non Clio's ok for this Daz?

Nice work Steve, So what is the traction like with 370+ BHP and FWD Having been in the car when it was around the 250bhp mark i'm sure it's a right little pocket rocket now ;) I need to get the Rs6 on the rollers at some point, let me know the next time your going too RS and i'll pop up for a...

Too many variables, tyre specification, slip angles, sidewall structure etc, X negative camber might work well with one tyre and terrible with the next, let alone toe and castor settings. Best bet is have a play about and decide for yourself, i ended up running just under 3 degrees negative...

It's not a new thing for 2010, the Ast's i bought over 12 months ago had the machined parts fitted. The spring rates will depend on your preferences, Curtis spec'd mine originally for a loose rear end (the car's) where as i prefered a more stable rear, so the rear spring rate was reduced. i...

Hi Tony, how have you and Mr Burp got on with your 1st year racing the clio? :) As for the RS6, awesome car speed wise, you don't have to press too hard on the loud pedal to be doing the wrong side of twice the speed limit, although running 510bhp and 550ftlb's helps a little :evil: It was...

Hi everyone, 1st time i've been on here for nearly a year :quiet: Tried asking on the clio trophy forum, but no one knew anything, so does anyone on here know what happened to my old Trophy, did the project get completed? As for what i've been up to for the last year, well as some of you...

Got a bit of footage of your car Nathan, not the best, but it's when you went a bit deep in to "mansfield" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKCkHeqy1iA 1st time out for me in the car, only started building it at the end of may, hit a few teething problems, one of which was far too soft springs...

It depends on the RR used. Some are able to calulate the losses on the coast down, others just use a calculation as input by the technician. Ones that rely on a calculation are only any good for wheel horse power, the ones that measure coast down are more accurate for flywheel figures...

Pretty easy job to do, just get a pair of stilsons on the inner joint and loosen, then when you refit, use some strong thread lock and tighten. 10 minute job once the rack's on the bench.
