Keep an eye on the South Central meets section as I plan to organise a driving meet in a few weeks, taking in the good driving roads around Wantage, Newbury, Lambourn etc.
I opted for the Sabelt RenaultSport offering and it's delivered a huge improvement to the driving experience - I feel so much more 'connected' to what's going on at the wheels.

If your concerns that your Renaultsport Clio is under-powered are based on the fact that it feels slow compared to your old turbo Impreza, and that when you used to go up against other Clios you couldn't shake them, maybe your car is behaving perfectly normally and you just need to adjust to...
Sam, your behaviour is simply unacceptable! You drive a Trophy FFS, you must conform, it must remain standard or you face dire consequences.
Who the hell do you think you are carrying out modifications at the top of the CS layer cake? It's a Trophy, not a cheap, French hot-hatch. Get with the...
