Hey guys I'm well up for convoying - but if we go to LFE that adds 40miles EACH WAY It's already a 100mile each way trip. Why are we going over to LFE? Instead of just straight down the A1?

Hahha no - I'm too old for that s**t!

Yeah definitely - just not sure what. I really want to get back to Brands Hatch as it was the first track I did, I love it and know it well. I also want to get back to Anglesey and do another day at Donington - but pretty busy with work at the moment so will just have to see what I can...

I'm running -3 on the fronts and -2.3 on the rears - so very similar to you Even on road tyres there's virtually no understeer at all - so if you're still having problems with those settings I think you should probably look at other contributing factors Maybe fit some shims to the rear and...

Yes.. It's a jpeg.

Haha Nick - yeah it does roll a fair bit but that corner is seriously tight Also in the famous words of Fred "roll isn't a bad thing" ;) I love the KW's gotta be honest I did copy your bumper mod yeah cos I got sick to death trying to find a decent set of cup air ducts - BUT not sure I...

Cheers mate I'm just really glad I battled through all the "I might sell this" nonsense - it's all come together all of a sudden in the last few months and I love it to bits now :D

Some pictures from Cadwell... This is getting made into a nice canvas print for my living room! Clear the new camber is working... :D

Haha yes - stay to the right on the start-finish straight!

Oooh Donington in august - added that to the calendar!

Good news

That's a point actually - what's the race schedule? I'd love to come out and see it on track again

Last I heard - he wasn't replying to any emails at all I'd email before putting payment info in just to check he's still alive TBH

Re: Grey With Trinkets, Russ' 29th RS Clio Yes ditto. I feel sorry for all the people he's ripped off, the people who've had to take him to court, the people who tried to work with him and have had their reputation destroyed by him. The only reason I ask about the map was I've seen a car...

Awesome pictures and great result Mine made 195bhp and 160bhp at the wheels - so yours making 170bhp at the wheels is a hell of a result I'd say!

I think Tony is right (as per usual) You get understeer going into a corner if the rear has more grip than the front as it pushes the front on - but when you add camber then it's reducing grip under braking in a straight line and adding grip when cornering I've given up trying to understand...

Re: Grey With Trinkets, Russ' 29th RS Clio Did the omex already have a map on it when he started work on it? ;)

Re: Grey With Trinkets, Russ' 29th RS Clio Ahhhh so how does that make you feel about all of the defensive replies from the last year from you? ;)

Can't wait for this - last years convoy was epic and extremely well behaved!

Re: Grey With Trinkets, Russ' 29th RS Clio I am sooooo about to do a massive told-you-so dance. The irony of this is AMAZING

I don't know technically why - but adding more front camber and adding rear camber has dramatically reduced the understeer on mine :)

With the cat I was getting around 98-100db With an extra silencer welded in I now get 93db Most tracks I do are 95db so it was kinda impractical before lol

By the time he's paid labour to remove and refit engine - it'll be cheaper to drop another one in. The labour cost to strip it down and replace rings etc... just isn't worth it They come up all the time on here for £3-400 sometimes with belts and dephaser already done Might even get some...

As fred said - I bought TRW track rod ends for my car and they are absolutely identical to the renault stuff - quarter of the price They also work fine on my 200bhp track car - so I'm sure the extra power of your sport will be ok lol

If there's oil coming out the exhaust - you need a new engine The good news is though you can get one for about £300 and fit it in an afternoon lol

Absolutely agreed.

An evo starts off turbo'd - a clio doesn't That makes quite a difference. I think if I had the money you had - I wouldn't boost a Clio But Chip will disagree with me there ;) lol

Sorry yes - but they're slow when you try to do boost control with them as they're not REALLY designed for that They're perfectly fine for the purpose they were designed for (like running my car LOL)

I'm not sure "what is the best" and "what can I afford" overlap very well on boosted cars Omex 600 and DTA S40 are some of the most used because they are cheap, but to be honest both are too slow really and lack 3d boost control As Chip says find a mapper you trust and go with their...

I do this tbh.
