And that leads to metal rubbing against metal........ (I get the picture)

LOL thought you were taking the piss. I know about making sure the oil warms up enough, never considered it getting too hot though!

As in what will it do your engine? sorry if its a stupid question Dave

Is high oil temp (120 C for example) much of an issue?

Twas a good meet. Had a great little drive :evil: Dan just needs to work on his photography thats all ;)

Very happy with my prospeed. Perfect sound for me (i.e. not boomy at low revs/normal driving). Blatantly better made than what Renault put on there originally! ;)

Those photos are appalling.......

Repost I'm afraid mate. I'd rather have the last generation clio cup racer for Christmas, must be a few of them on the market now

I would'nt bother, the cars are'nt really that different. All your really gaining is a nicer interior. And your losing all the cash/time/effort spent getting your current car how you like it (you'd blatantly end doing most of it all over again to the 182 as well) Why don't you get something...

Great pics:approve: Who took them? Seeing these makes me REALLY want to do a trackday!

Wow that was really informative!

Would'nt that pull you out of the slide? (if you applied opposite lock of course!). Braking just as the back wheels slipped might send you round pretty quick

205 is a beauty. Bet it tares too with that power too!!

What is TBR exactly?

Loving your work Notorious :cool:

Which ones got the bonnet?

From a standing start 172 should win. The VR6 is a bit of a tank. Rolling may be more even; torquey, less peaky delivery would help the Golf I reckon

Gutted. And you'd just spent all that money on mods too;)

I want that Scoob

The lighter wheels might help with the handling. The black one looks superb :cool:

Like your motor mate. What size wheels are they? think they look better than the black ones

Nah no pics, was only me and my mates Corsa! Left it a bit late tbh too, should have set off earlier to make the most of the quiet roads. Good way to start the day though :approve:

Pretty w**k from the front IMO. Don't like the current facelift.

Nice clean cup. Drove past Tesco express whilst I was parked up waiting for my mate to go on a little breakfast run. Shame you didn't stop and join us!

Does have a certain logic to it, but tbh I don't see the point in replica's like that - all show and no go! I'd rather have a 2.0 litre lump in a 1.2 body shell (with 1.2 badges!) - proper sleeper:cool:

How much power did your Scooby have?

Banned? was it for that?^^^^ Good choice of colour mate. Whats happened to the cup splitter though? (it comes with the cup spoiler IIRC)

I agree. How they are on the Cup racers

Beast :evil: Spoilers a bit ugly but I guess it ain't just for show! Reminds me of a Group B rally car like the Metro 6R4 (right name?)

Think you may need to watch the hot gases don't melt your bumper. As now they'll be directed straight at it. Oh, and buy some ear plugs!
