Not today because I haven't long crawled out of bed but yesterday I gave the little TCe Clio a service and finished fitting the parts cannon delivery to the front suspension to make sure it doesn't keep knocking like a t**t. Great success! Drives really well now so I may just keep it. The...

I have a Corbeau Pro-series X in my Clio and it's SUPER comfy, however the sides are very tall so it's a bit of a chore to get in and out of. I'd probably spend my money on something like this - https://www.corbeau-seats.com/product-page/pro-sport If going fixed back I'd avoid anything with a...

f**k. Does this mean I might T bone a piss yellow 4 series that's just rejoined the circuit after bouncing off the barriers on The Mountain? ;)

I did a booking. Went with group C, depending on how far I get with race car prep, there may or may not be a passenger seat but if there is then I'm happy for anyone to come for a spin (hopefully not a spin anyway)

Today I've mostly been swearing at the cheap and cheerful MK3 Clio I bought as a runaround. The balljoints were both shagged and the LCA bushes were past their best so I've fitted new lower arms, new track rod ends and generally spent the day regretting my life choices It'll be up for sale...

I did Cadwell one January with Opentrack, the track was frozen in places but nobody died. You'll be fine Dave, just follow me around and you'll be safe. EDIT - I knew I had the photo somewhere. Hardest part was staying upright in the paddock!

Welp, looks like I'll be booking when it opens then!

Cadwell would be mega. I'd like to come along this year.

Life choices are currently being questioned 🤣

Continued stripping the Clio tonight for race prep. Took the half cage out tonight and found some... Well.. Oh... It'll be fine... To be fair I've looked inside the sill and it all looks clean and tidy, this is just where the arch liner clip goes onto. It'll get plated tomorrow when the cage...

You're certainly piling the miles on! Must be one of the higher mileage (new) 5's out there?
