    Only one in a black 182 round our way from here is Chris (Recaro) but his car stands out quite a bit as its low, has Recaro's in and is missing his centre caps!

    Strut Brace. Pros and Cons?

    Cheers for the feedback people. Im not totally convinced by the benefits but its good to hear what everyone thinks. I agree with NeilG....turrets so close to the main bulkhead that im sure any movement is minimal

    Cup Vs Non-Cup

    Same old argument as always on this thread then! How many of these threads do we have per week? Must be at least half a dozen! I'll put my pennys worth in...if you want the toys and a heavier car buy a FF 172...if you want something that is as close to the Clio Cup RACE CAR as possible then...
