Clean the plug terminals that connect the rear lights. common problem.

Very clean looking car, but it really needs the stainless exhaust refitting properly as it shouldn't be hanging down that low.

Mine sweep over my strip, never been an issue.

Ive never been a fan of Powerflex bushes in the bottom arms after I had them fail rather quickly on my 205's, and I only ever change the bottom arms complete with TRE for genuine items as tend to find they last longer. I would be changing the bottom arms.

Grind the caliper. Nice bit of paint and job done.

What tyres are you using? Have you recently changed your brake fluid too?

Depends on what offset your current wheels are. As an example, if your current wheels are a 45mm offset, then it would be the same with a 20mm offset wheel and no spacer on the front, and a 30mm offset wheel with no spacer on the rear. If you start using low offset wheels and spacers then you...

It's the 4x4 version too isn't it?

15 x 7 with a 30mm offset would be fine and with a 195/50/15 common tyre size

@George@RTR_Parts for all your braking needs. Brembo high carbon discs and Brembo pads all round and you won't have any trouble with a road car

I agree with Bash that AD08 are best dry tyre for the Clio. I used them at Loton, Wigan, Anglesey and Prescott . I used S drives on the front if it was wet.

If you are doing gymkhana and want your handbrake to work then you definitely need standard rear pads, as you won't get the bite from the ds2500 as they won't get hot enough

@20vKarlos Do you really think you need ds2500 for the rear? I have got a bios valve in mine so run a bit more rear brakes and still only use standard brembo rear pads The ds1.11 front pads are great though

Looking good!! There's one slight issue @CamMoreRon, I still havnt received my testing invite.......:tonguewink:

I need to change the roll cage now so I will sort all that first. Wife still wants me to sell it but I would like to do Wigan again as they are fun rallies but if I can sort a budget, I would really love to do the Tour of Mull in October. We shall see.

His name is Russell Thorpe and he still competes in Doris. It has just had a new inlet made for it and is going on bike carbs He's trying to get his class record back at Wigan after I took it off him in the Clio

Which is what I mentioned about only having one bend on the front leg

I bought the Safety Devices cage as I was in a car that tested one to the max when I used to codrive in the 205 Challenge.......... It was scrap after that @SafetyDevicesDaniel

I've used s drives for the wet when I hillclimbed the clio. Was happy with them too

This is because you are only allowed 1 bend on the front leg to msa regs, unless it has the extra supports like SD have done.

This is excellent news. Yes it will cost me a bit of time, and a bit more welding but that is far better than having to take the brunt of buying another cage too. Thank you Aeron (and Daniel) @SafetyDevicesDaniel , I will be in contact with my details as soon as possible.

Yes it's a Gripper diff and the lower final drive @Brushwood69

I've wondered that too and do it in such a way the front could still be removed.

Popped to my mates earlier who has a goal rally car (cage fitted last year and logbooked), and a Polo (just built and logbooked last week) both of which have dash dodgers that come down like the clio ones, only difference being is that are a bit closer to the A pillar. Surely this issue (if...

Saw it on LinkedIn earlier and commented on the Prodrive page that they need to get Renault backing and build a WRC equivalent too

Agreed. MSA don't help either though. £800 cage, 12 months ago fitted, car 7 months finished build, 4 events inc international event and now I can't fecking compete in it again unless I strip the car out and replace the whole cage!! It certainly won't be another SD one.

RB 182 followed me into the car park this morning (I was in the works van)

Emailed my scrutineer and he said as long as I have paperwork, there shouldn't be an issue. Not sure what paperwork he means, as I just remember it just having the sticker like the above photo
