There’s a banging B&B we stay in for Oulton. Owner’s a proper petrol head and he’s got a really secure driveway so big that you could park 10 arctic lorries on it. Literally 5 mins away too.

No. f**k off. in all seriousness, it’s a properly relaxed and very funny weekend. You should 100% lob a tent in the back of the car and bring your mates. (As long as they all buy tickets!)

Loving it Jon, must be very satisfying.

We’ve had 3 setups. the one we have now is all new, apart from the PC and the monitor.

All in good time mate. Still a LOT of work to be done but we just wanted to get the date out there so that you can all tell your mums that you’re staying out for the weekend.

It is a lot of money but it won’t break. We had a cheap one before (I say cheap, it was still about £1000) and it was so bloody flimsy. with this one you can properly stamp on the brake pedal with no worry of it breaking (they’re hydraulic) you have to really hold on to the steering wheel or...

@Darren61 - I heard silver stone are only doing their own days now. At £595 a pop! A shame, I like it there.

Post pics of your track dedicated clio, where you live, your regular track and your favourite track. I’ll start; Based in Bristol so I’m always up at Castle Combe in the car but done a few days around the country in the van. My favourite track so far is Oulton Park. The 182 converted Kangoo...

Mate the bare steering wheel was £1400.

£12k.

Never even considered it tbh mate. I don’t think the seat moves that much that it affects the pedal operation.

Dead at work so we’re putting the time to good use and practicing Cadwell ready for the summer. 😂

I just fill the kettle up with cold water. Pour on, drive off.

I think it’s absolutely w**k. I’d never own anything like that. But, I have such admiration for people that do their own thing and (from the limited pics) it looks to have been done by some very talented people.

Good evening all! @lemonnobby summoned me to his ramp this evening for a good look over of the car. We’ve come up with a list of parts needed and nothing we found scared either of us so that’s good… Cambelt Kit, aux belt kit, dephaser, oil, air, pollen and fuel filters, all shocks and...

Jack the rear end up and spin the wheel up. If it’s still sticking he hasn’t fixed it. If it’s grumbling the bearing is shagged. also, hold the wheel at 3 and 9 o clock. Rock the wheel. Then do the same at 12 and 6 o clock. if you’ve got any movement the bearing is buggered.

I can’t believe you deployed that so soon.

Jesus, bet that’s a cheap fix! 😂

That’s a Renault traffic locking wheel nut bag. 100%.

When you did the plugs and the leads, did you do the coil pack too?

Both mine have them. And my main one will have the solid black sunstrip it currently has, plus an extra 4-5 inches of tint come the spring. #blindedbythelight

Before you throw parts at it left right and centre, get it plugged in to a proper Clip machine. where are you located? We can point you in the right direction. my money is on injectors and/or Lamda.

Bring a crash helmet and something to bite down on. X

@McGherkin uses them iirc.

If I was you (and assuming you’re in this for the long haul) I would get it up on axel stands and get the rear beam, fuel tank, side skirts and exhaust off. assess the situation properly. if repairing all of that is beyond you, get someone in to cut out and weld in all the new metal, then you...

Välkommen till klubben Jeffrey!

Scenic Steels are for champions!

If it’s got that hot it’s probably cooked the wheel bearing as well. as said, sticky caliper.

Got a new one in the office, much more manly, and seems extremely well built. It’s actually exhausting to play as the steering is so fight, the seat chucks you around and the butt kicker rattles your teeth out. I don’t know how some people play them for hours. I’m done in after 20 minutes!

I was thinking that. Take it off and put it in the glovebox. Put it back on when I sell it. After @Ant1 selling it for £150, I don’t want this one getting damaged or go walkies!
