What box is it in the Megane 175? Is it a PK4? Most PK4's are around 55kg.

Ideally need medium/hard on the front and soft on the rear of a Clio. They take an age to warm up as well as @JB21 says. This time of year probably 2-3 laps at pace on top of a couple of laps to even warm them up so you don't cold grain them.

Check the earth wires behind the carpet/plastic trim as well. The black rubber grommets either side of the tail lights can leak water and it runs down inside right onto the earth points 🤦‍♂️

Ahh no, they only do the RC6.

Have you tried Carbone Lorraine RC8? A mate used them on his Megane with slicks and was able to lock the fronts, only just though. Just so much grip on big slicks when hot.

You might notice a bit more pad wear running slicks, because you are able to use all of the pad's ability. Therefore more heat will be generated, so you need your cooling on point.

A working temperature of 40°c versus 70+ would indicate you were right.

If that's same day testing, then that's good.

Really? I can't see how a non road legal race tyre (A050) is slower than the A052. They even used the A050 in World Time Attack as the mandatory tyre.

It might seem expensive, but it doesn't take a lot to do a tyre.

You need to try the DZ03G yeah.

Carbon Collective - Sateen Dries nice and quick on tyres, no sling. Gyeon Tire is alright as well, but don't put too much on otherwise it slings, but not as bad as Megs Endurance.

The 50's and Direzzas will be faster.

52's are actually in the same class as AR1 😂

OMP Targa and get it retrimmed in alcantara instead of the suede.

A050 are in the same class as DZ03G (1C) AR1 are the class below (1B) Usually a good indicator of what tyres are better than others in terms of dry laptimes.

As long as you don't swing off the battery at the end, it'll take a fair bit of load.

Where are you getting A050's for £105 each Jon? That's mega cheap!

@jamesbryan88

Aye. He didn't lock up either so definitely wasn't trying to stop hard enough 🤔
