What does the Blue controller do exactly?

Nice one. You need baboon arms to be comfortable with the gear shift.

Even out the tyre wear. Want to get a new full set in the spring.

Spent an hour in the p***ing rain swapping my wheels around and adjusting the tyre pressures.

The splitter included in the 'Cup spoiler pack' is made from 100% purest platinum.

Glad I could help! Welcome to CS.

Ouch! Luckily I have the extended warranty as they seem to fail quite a lot.

MP215 upgrade booked for late January a couple of weeks before the Surrey Rolling Road day. Excited!

Meet there or convoy up, whatever suits. I tend to meet up directly there as I go via Farnborough to pick a mate up. If you are coming get your name down in the thread soon...with you being RWD they'll need to know in advance to determine the running order.

Saturday 8th February.

If you need a hand give me a shout!

SRR is a must! Looks a nice one Joe :approve:

Stupid question and no offence intended but do you not go around corners? How do those front tyres not rub when you do?

Very nice. That's got a huge spec, makes mine seem positively poverty!

LOL at Grand Scenic! Standard the car comes with the silver wheels; the anthracite 99% of them have is part of the £275 style pack (coloured wheels, red calipers, illuminated 'ST' sill plates) but seeing as every dealership has been offering this for free all year it's quite a popular choice.

Not happening...I've just spoken with Doug at Mountune, the intended customer for this is non-UK. This means that if you install the 215 upgrade map using this method, it won't be recorded on Ford's system, and you're therefore out of warranty. Back to my dealership for the kit it is then!

I'm trying to talk myself out of buying this today...but I'm not doing too well so far... http://www.mountunestore.com/Product/mTune-215-Power-Upgrade-Package http://www.mountune.com/index.php/services/performance-upgrades/mtune

Without the quotation marks it would be better, they shouldn't be there.

I have one of these; http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/accessories-tyres/44465/electrolux-z61a-workzone-stair-and-car-vac Very powerful being mains powered and I can't fault it in any way.

Same here. F*** all in mine, it's pointless carting extra s**t around.

Finally, some acknowledgement that the Clio is at its core a decent enough motor.

I wouldn't be if I hadn't experienced it myself. I find it quite bizarre that even when presented with indisputable evidence, the CS masses can't quite see that either.

My bad, from 60mph up to 110mph then. LOL

Decade?

FLOL at editing my original post to try and illustrate idiocy. Educate me, how does under steer and poor lines on track affect how closely two cars can accelerate in a straight line?

Same as usual, this thread is over ten years old after all.

I didn't get 'raped' though did I? Back in the paddock the driver came over to speak with me...said he was doing all he could but had to let me go in the end. Watch the footage, the M3 is squiriming about through Woodcote...he was very definitely trying his hardest to keep me at bay. No partial...

I'm not disputing that at all! From a rolling 50 ish mph up to over 100mph the M3 didn't pull out that much at all. It was only after that the extra 130bhp the M3 had showed itself. The point is that if a standard 172 Cup can stay in touch with that M3 as above, a 330i with 70-90bhp less is...

In a straight line though? Not really driver skill...I was with him until the top of fourth...and our exit speeds from Lavant were similar.
