Snetterton - August 2020
26th August 2020
So I was booked onto a track evening back at Snetterton however, it was hard work attending.
In short I didn't realise my MOT had expired so I was going to give it a miss however a good mate offered to trailer the Clio there for me, so after a half day...
Thanks for the kind words.
I used this company https://www.dentfx.co.uk I couldn't recommend him enough. He's done loads of friends cars after they saw mine. I gave him the instruction of tidying up my whole car and he didn't disappoint. He's isn't the cheapest but its honestly one of the...
You're correct.
I've just found the whole session and I got distracted while putting my lid on. I've put it through the metal part but never actually tightened it up.
Good job I didn't crash.
Brands Hatch (Evening) - 22nd July 2020
I say this a lot but this was my best track day to-date. I was on track with three Clio 200 Cup Race Cars, whom are all quicker than me but I hold my own! Was only an evening session this one but got plenty of laps in and some great pics from Opentrack...
Snetterton - 1st July 2020
I've let this thread slip a little recently, mainly due to being mad busy at work, moving house and just life! Best get it up-to-date.
On 1st July I did a full day at Snetterton with my usual group of mates. Was a good day, however I stupidly I only didn't check my...
Various - Early July 2020
I thought I'd post some additional pics prior to my posts regarding Snetterton on 1st July 2020 & Brands on 22nd July 2020, plus I have some additional media from Brands in June.
First off I wanted to say how impressed I am with my Yoko A048's, they aren't road legal...
Perfect. So I can run an 8mm drop with standard bolts?
Next question. Where did you buy those from? I was looking at just throwing washers in but this looks far more like me!
Good Evening All,
I'm planning on lowering my steering wheel, I've read a few threads but I can't seem to obtain what size bolts I'll require.
Any suggestions as to how much any of you have lowered them also?
Thanks in advance.
Tom
The car felt amazing, and there is so much more in the car!
Thanks Mate. You also saw the car when it was a looking a little sorry for itself.
Cheers! Its so good when a car works well after having work done to it.
This is also my favorite pic, currently my laptop background!
Thanks...
Upgrades and Brands Hatch - June 2020
Since Silvertsone in February, I'd not used my Clio or had much done to it excluding a paintless dent removal chap who I would highly recommend however I'd accumulated a loads of parts over the past year, I therefore got it booked in with Alex at AW...
I do enjoy your thread. Always a good read, like many on here.
Now come the questions!
Where did you purchase the Cup Racer deflectors from? I've got brake ducts to fit, especially now that I smashed my other fog light last night!
Thanks all, I just wanted to see if you guys did it earlier than the suggested 5 years.
I’ll leave it for the time being and get done just before the 5 year mark.
Thanks.
Tom
Good Evening All,
I had my belts changed back in January 2017 (including water pump, etc) but as some of you may know I don’t use the car much, only done around 1,700 miles in the period but how often do you chaps get them changed on these “track cars”?
Thanks in advance.
Tom
It originally confused as I thought the yellow & blue connection went to the same plug, I wasn't wrong. Although the yellow plug doesn't capture all the pins.
You have PM.
Finally I've just checked it quickly and the Tunepoint is working. I just need to organise the songs on the USB as...
Good Morning All,
So I changed over the front and get the new CD player fitted yesterday. Was really easy, but only thanks to @mossyv6 & @Dr Jekyll help/guides.
As mentioned above my plug layout was slightly different to the pics Mark posted however all connected and working. I've not yet...
Thank both @mossyv6 & @Dr Jekyll
My Radio plug section looks different to yours Mark. I'm thought my yellow plug came out of the hole the blue (Tunepoint) lead would need to connect. I must be wrong.
Changing over the faces this morning and then I'll throw it back in this afternoon...
