You are welcome to have a drive of my Clio. Its wicked. I LOVE it!!! comes to every event I do and gets hammered around by...
Its pretty shiny... for a reserve reserve back up track car that it actually is. Its got ATpower ITB's and a Gripper diff and AST's and all set up handling wise by Mark Fish. Was awesome on track... but was strangely never that quick in straight line. Engine was knackered on one cylinder it...
You copied me with the blue stickers on the wheels!!!
And did a much better job of applying them though. Mine are all wonky!!!
I have 3 sets of theses wheels... and not one of them has the 'ee' or the 'corse' bits lined properly! I am a doofus
Our cars are very similar!
BTM will 10000% get some business from me in future I think you are super helpful, mega professional and a proper expert an enthuiast petrolhead!
Cant speak highly enough of you and always point anyone in your way in your direction
just found out... my lack of compression is due to big chunk...
What a read! Blimey!
Awesomely written and presented... So made it a real pleasure!
Firstly what a beautiful and well modded car
Just lovely!
Hope this Saturday goes smoothly and it all goes well for you
You seem to have handled it all do well... Far TOO well in the end to be honest...
They don't mind Italian either in my experience!

My current GF hates my Clio. With a Passion! Keeps on telling me I should sell it! NEVER!!!
Love my Clio. :) So does my Sister. She Drove it all the way to Nurburgring...
He does though... and he only bought it up as people with no experience of fast cars were thinking he was a crazy man for suggesting a 500bhp Clio v6
He has driven almost everything I have ever owned for a start.
I would trust him with anything.
He is a complete petrol head and gets just as...
it is in that car as well.... Just not when the Ferrari in front puts on his brake lights!
will upload some more laps ! with flat through craner :star: just didnt wanna bore anyone!
I did lend it to someone I met on here actually. Well I say met... I spoke to him on line! never actually met him in person. He collected it from my mums house and dropped it back....
in hindsight... that was quite trusting (or stoopid!) of me!
He dropped it back unscathed though!
Another...
My main track car was back in its trailer after just 2 laps yesterday :( broken rear diff! Thankfully had my ExigeS and more importantly Clio there as well as back up. Clio was awesome all day and great fun and also pretty dam quick. Thanks again to Mark Fish for the set up and last minute...
Great thread. Awesome read. awesome car.
Thanks for sharing.
Good to see you using Mark Fish. He looks after my Clio. top bloke and Clio genius! 10000% trustworthy as well.
My Mark fish prepped car is fine on road. I love driving it actually. My little sister has driven it to Ring twice for me and my mums driven it to loads of Track days for me.
Goes very well on track as well. Handling is awesome in my opinion.
Tonys driven it. You CAN have a nice road/track...
Call Sticker Paul on 07850 666891
Tell him you want the Speedline logos that he did for Porkie.
Will do any colour you like. I have mine in blue to match car. Look good. :)
he doesn't sell them any more mate. Try Camskill.
They were hard to get hold of in certain sizes for a while so I always have few in stock! This is just my Clio pile!
plus 4 new ones on car... and ALOT of used ones that have track but not road or wet life left in em. Anyone need some?
I...
Disagree. Tried them pretty much all over the years.
In the dry yes an A048 and Dunlop Direzza has slightly more grip.
But in damp and wet conditions the R888 is miles better. Most of my Lotus chums have all switched to R888's from the original A048's as they are FAR better in the wet.... and...
I can understand a total newbie making this mistake....
But seriously? You have been a member of this site since 2006 and yet you STILL make the NUMBER 1 Clio error?
wow...
obvioulsy gutted for you.
But honestly? you kinda deserved it. Sorry.
not like you had no warning was it! I learnt...
