It's brilliant, having the stick higher is so much better. I do need to add the short shifter, which i'll do in the next few weeks.

Not long, but my bolts were not rusty. Takes about 20/30 mins a side depending on all your tools. i've just got a 5mm hub spacer on mine now.

Ha, yeah it's ok. We have a group of us going up there. It's not the most exciting and the bigger powered cars are a lot better around it.

Bedford easter weekend.

@andy_coops did his thing today and polished and coated the Clio. It’s currently off the road for winter, so why not... While it’s off the road, I’ll do a few maintenance jobs ready for a track day in April. Hopefully I’ll be able to get a new ARB for the rear.

Cracking job, cheers mate 😎

I’ve managed to finish the shocks as the weather has been nice an warm. I’ve finished them off with 1k Lacquer, so I’m hoping that will hold out. The final finish isn’t perfect, but I think they’ll be ok. Next up is some stickers? and then get them fitted.

Yep, i do think slightly stiffer dampers and potentially an rear ARB will help a little more, but this setup is pretty good. I'm not out to smash lap times etc, although i did time a few 9mins laps of the ring, however chasing times at the ring is a dangerous game to play.

It was MOT time and i feel a little bad... Car only just covered 700 miles in the last year. It's bad i know, the car really should be used more. Have manged to give the shocks some paint, one more coat of colour and then 2K lacquer to finish them off. My aim is to try and make some...

Decided to go with a small damper upgrade. Purchased some second hand Koninadjustables from a forum member, they were ok, but thought I’d get them strip down and re painted. Condition was ok, but not quite good enough for the car. Back and stripped Gone with some Fiat Broom Yellow...

This is awesome, where is the first event/shakedown?

I've got a 500 mile brand new exhaust from Renault. Have a receipt for £440. Wonder what it's worth seconds hand...

16mm on the front and the rears are now 5mm

Cool, This was already modified (bent) by @loggyboy - So i just need the short shifter. Still not been out in it, will do this asap!

I was looking at it. Going to drive it like this first, see how it is.
