I really don't get the obsession with spraying the grilles black? Just ruins it imho. But if you're happy :)

So they haven't quite lost the plot after the 200T then? Perhaps a little bit of RenaultSport DNA left somewhere ...

Such a great turnaround on the car James!!! Some brilliant work and nice little touches. I just couldn't race anything other than a shed though lol, would cry too much if it got scratched ...

Brian at 1st Tickets will book as much as you like if you give him enough money lol - I booked for 12 people this year! Shotgun not having to pay out for 50 CS members, then attempt to get the cash out of them though. Bad enough with our lot :rolleyes: ;)

Yeah, think we realised that the 2nd year & kept it. That and we got a mega bargain on the tent, should have been about £300 lol!!!

Tent was £130. That's only £13 each lol. Was wet & smelly anyways. Like Mike after 5 days without a wash.

Shame. Makes for a great photo lol.

Looks awesome, some pics of the interior as well would be nice though!! Only thing id change is the wheels, I prefer the pre-facelift 19's, even though they are made of cheese.

Re: FRP #160/500 Just for you Kev :o

Personally I would go for the Sportlines, purely as I found the MF ones too hard. Re: the Cooksport's, they may well work with normal 1*2 dampers, but has anyone tried them on a Trophy? Spring rate might be wrong for all we know.

Your front dampers are knackered - well known on CT that the 'corkscrewing' is an indication of this. If your issue is on right hand corners, the culprit will be the front left as when its loaded up in the corner it will have no damping properties.

Quoted for truth.

Yup, same. Although id probably buy it, then try it on a track day to see what needed improving 1st!! Mine seemed fairly handy as it was. Think Danny sells various strut braces for them, ultra racing ones perhaps? Clio197.net is the best place to look tbh.

What are you planning on doing with the Trophy as I could be interested in having it back ...

Now back to standard, Haldex controller removed and up for sale properly. All sensible offers invited as we've found a house we like: http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/volkswagen/golf-r32-r/high-spec-volkswagen-golf-mk5-r32-2006/1406754

Tis alright I suppose ... Looks even better when clean btw!!

Yup, same as above

We're actually on the row behind where we are normally!! The scale on the map is rubbish lol ...

Have mint FRP, sell. Buy TT, get bored, buy Trophy. Miss FRP, buy FRP. Repeat for eternity. I understand you Kev, i'm looking at M3's again lol.

Having had both of them at the same time, id say that the Trophy handles better, but the 197 gives more grip.

You never been to Llandow in the wet, its great fun drifting round Glue-pot with a dap of oppo. Cant imagine you can get too much lift-off oversteer with ESP on?

I would have to agree. You cant do this on track with ESP on.

I cant remember the last time I actively wanted to go out & buy a brand new car, but I think the fiesta has hit the 'fun' nail on the head. Its like the spiritual successor to this old thing, my 1.6si I had from 18-21 .... cost f*ck all to run and just gave you what you need from a car, smiles.

I love the car so much, but your spacers make me cry a little inside.

I like this lap: And 'quite' busy at the start:

Love the map on the steering wheel, just so he can check where he is lol. Watched about 8 hours of racing at the N24 on Sunday/Monday. Crazy race.

Quite useful: http://www.nyracer.com/overunder.htm

More understeer. Essentially, the stiffer the rear is in relation to the front, the less understeer you will get. On a clio, soft front/hard rear is good, hence why Whitelines are so popular.
