Winter hibernation over for the 172 Cup! Finally took the cover off the 172 Cup and attempt to repair the damaged wheels from the brake pad compound, after trying various popular wheel cleaners that failed to lift the stains I'm pleased to report so Auto Finnese saved the day! Treated...

This has been on my mind for a while, treat it to some proper sticky rubber on 15's.. the issue is I would love a set of white 2118's which would literally be the worst colour for track pads 😅 Glad your enjoying the content, beeb really pushing the channel this month to see if it makes a...

Thanks mate & glad your enjoying the content on the channel ;) The onsite photographer is awesome, even more so as there all included with the price of the track day

Completely agree, as mentioned in the video I had more fun in the Clio than the M3 at Anglesey track earlier this year! Few pictures from the official photographer

Finally got the Cup 195 on track and it was fantastic! I needed to do a few jobs in preparation for the track day, oil service and brake fluid change so figured it would be a good idea to put a together a little guide for the channel (simple enough job) The track day had been booked months...

I didn't plan for the day to play out that way thats for sure but not having decent footwear on was a silly move! Friend in front stacked it and in attempt to avoid him I ended up in an unplanned stoppy shortly followed by my foot rolling forward off the pedal and as the bike came down the...

Evening guys & girls, Emailed the contact page without a response earlier this week so hoping some one here can advise as we draw closer to the event - I had booked on early for entrance/dinner and afternoon track time to finally get along to this years Cliosport festival in the 172 Cup but...

Looking back through the post I forgot to drop the Engine Dynamics video on the build! Obviously with the new parts fitted it will be back to Engine Dynamics to hopefully break the 200BHP mark with all the new parts set up on the dyno! The handy part is my good friend Matt is about to go...

Small update for the Clio 172 Cup OEM+ Build, dusted it off for a short video to recap & go over the future plans for the little french pocket rocket for 2022! 197/200 camshafts 197/200 injectors Pure motorsport fancy exhaust manifold Limited slip diff (undecided if to go for a road friendly...

agree, the MK2 just has something magical about it (it still hadn’t been washed when the images were taken so the shiny 200 had a slight visual advantage lol) looks fresh again now for the next couple of months off the road until the dry, warm & salt free roads return

Happy New Year! (final shots from 2020) Shall be washing the Cup today & putting it away for a few months, the old girl doesn't usually come out this time of year but with it being on the road for Engine Dynamics last month I got some pictures with Matt's Clio 200 The MK3 Clio 200 with a...

Lovely read this mate - thing is far to clean to be a daily lol, didn’t know you had a project thread on here - shows my lack of time on forums these days :( Also agree with the C&M, was expecting the same as you.. we see it as a resting/ refill point now as my friend Matt found a cracking...

You won't be disappointed mate, really impressed with the entire day (Andrew makes a grand cuppa tea too ;))

Don't give me ideas, already have far to many projects/ hobbies to consider racing too haha!

ECU Calibration time at Engine Dynamics This was the final piece of the puzzle for 2020 on the Clio 172 Cup & something I had wanted to complete on the car for some time as I knew after the Surrey Rolling road day she had more to give (even though the trusty F4R had now covered over 133,000...
