Looks like an idler has failed. Belt still on at the top but looks worse lower down hanging on my a 1/4 of the belt.

Car is on its way to have its belts done and it' gone, what are the odds! Unsure of damage. It just died spluttering and found part of my aux belt gone.

Haha, snap again on the brakes also had rc8s before the ds1s as well, lol.

Go trophy again as you won't lose much if any, and you're back home in the car you love.

You tried those springs on the road yet? Just picked my car up from storage with 90/110nm and felt sick as a dog once I got home 8 miles away. If you're going slow in 1st or 2nd and hit a decent bump you end up jabbing the throttle and launchig foward, lol.

Seen a guy using a trolley jack lifting his Clio on grass at CSF. Sure it made the recent web site for CSF17 as well.

Yep remember him, think he was there in May as well.

Fair enough, the 1.8 was to firm for me personally.

Nice, seen a few at Oulton this year. They can be quick in the right pair of hands.

Looks nice, be interesting to hear your say 3 month review as I just don't know if I could live with one as a daily with the lack of torque and firm ride.

These are definitely growing on me and the M135i are at a bargain price at the minute.

Jesus, lucky escape then. Where were the axel stands placed? It happened to me on the Clio once where I had the front stands to far back on the chassis beams and when taking the rear wheels off it tipped forward. I just place them right next to the a-frames now, no issues since.

Doubt it mate. Think I'm gonna give them a miss and get some new AR1's or R888r's. Recently had another bad experience on ebay with a used pair of Direzza''s this time, so I'm loosing faith with used eBay track tyres. Slicks are even more of a mine field by the sound of it.

Love that!

Found myself what looks like a decent set of used Dunlop SP Sport slicks but it seems some race slicks don't have a manufacturing date. Guy said he purchased them 12 months ago from a Clio cup race team and they stated they has only completed 15 laps from new. So my question, what is the life...

Fair play mate.

Budgeting £4k+ for paint is madness on a £1k car. Sell it and buy an immaculate example with super low miles.

Would you not just have it wrapped, cheaper and loads of great colours to choose from.

Mine's a 2nd car used mainly for track with the very occasional road blast. I'm on a mirrored 3k limited mileage policy which is only £25 per month, plus I only tax it on track months, so around 8 months out the year. So it only costs me around £500 a year to run. IMO if not used on track its...

35 mate

Mine on 40mm springs with 15" wheels...

Not sure how spacers are going to reduce that arch gap, surely it is what it is...you'll be needing 40mm springs to solve it IMO.

Monster truck stance, needs more lows!

Both should fit mate, only thing you may need is the top bolts for the top mounts if the strut thread is different. BCs DR's are the best option from the above IMO.

Nah they're £100 now, there's a set in the fs though.

Welcome mate.

Link?

ABS isn't a bad thing on track if it's a good system, but in a 1*2 its utter site! Its so unsophisticated it's untrue, it actually makes the car dangerous with aggressive pads in my opinion. I've even pulled the abs fuse at times in the wet as 50/50 bais is more predictable. So yeah rip it out...

Tru dat!

Haha, that's rich coming from you, lol.
