Tbh having been a passenger in the old RSTuning 330bhp the power delivery is very linear and really doesn't feel as quick as your actually going. Other than a set of good tyres and decent front pads which a Clio should have anyways, it doesn't need anything else to harness that sort of power...
Heres a few... 25mm fronts and 16mm rears on ET43 wheels with no rubbing, though I did have 3.5 degrees front and 3 degrees rear of negative camber! lol
Miss that shed :(
Get one or two little 12v heater fans and mount them in each corner of the dash, some of the 'pretty' trackcar owners dont like them but it does the job Lewis. I've seen them fitted to Integra Britcars etc so they work, function over fashion...
Lol, you are some sort of special breed aren't you!
He's already calculated that the vpower is more expensive and it still ends up being cheaper to run on that than it is normal 95Ron!
Exactly the same! Maybe if you were pushed 'extremely' hard on track you may notice a little more tyre roll because of the chunkier tyre on the wheel but other than that no different tbh.
Indeed the ones I ran were 6J et30, the guy says they are a 6J yet are 7 inches wide? Not sure how you can do that. Thought 6J was 6 inch and 7J - 7 inch but i'll be proven wrong.
Either way once machined they'll fit, will fill the arches nicely and accomodate a 195 tyre easily though it'll...
Hardly ruined chap, this is merely his toy for trackdays and a/b roads so no need for all the creature comforts! He's got a daily also, high rollers run 3 cars eh Fletch! ;)
Looking good dude, when you getting a cage fitted then? Forget the ITB's and go with a cage and some more focussed...
If I'm honest I'm happy as it is, quite liked Grahame Hill as it is pretty challenging to get it perfect, and fast without running off too much.
Either way whatever happens, still love Brands. A repetitive however amazingly satisfying circuit in my eyes.
Congrats, i'm falling behind atm. Only just come up to the Jan transfer window of the first season and sitting in a shocking 17th place, a little bit of form is coming back into the team after 5 straight match defeats! :(
Hopefully the board will let me do something this window!
1:04:603 with clutch turned on now. Hard car to drive as it loves to oversteer, hopefully with some more practice being smoother and getting better gearchanges I can shave a few more tenths.
1:05:067 so far with the gay auto clutch.
Going to start using it proper way now and see how I get on. Also just to clarify, completely standard I'm hot laps so you can't adjust tyre pressure right?
Disagree with you there Chip, you may well think your going quicker on a track (i'm talking about corners obviously) but using all that high rpm throughout the whole track isnt always the quickest/smooth. I'm sure they'll be plenty of racers on here that will vouch for that, the Burpspeed chaps...
Thats at the wheels Chip, 322bhp at the flywheel from a 3.2 straight 6 with ITB's as standard.
I'm sure you do drop below 5k when on a trackday, i'd actually be amazed to see a car do any circuit other than a drag strip where you'll be above 5k all day long.
It does indeed help as you have...
I've been away all this week so haven't been able to get much game time in, just firing it up now though for the evening. Would be nice to finish off the season tonight!
I'd just go for a 182, having had a cup and now got a 182 to drive about in the 182 is just as good. You get all the spec and in reality the 80kg difference between the Cup and 182 isn't noticeable when driving.
The abs and traction control on the 182 isn't too intrusive over the Cup which has...
Yeha there's a few people on high wages that are on loan and i'm pretty much paying for them to be away! Put them on the transfer lift and they dont want to leave!
Must admit I'd like to get rid of Rosenior also, useless even though the fans think the world of him here! A couple of million would help no end atm! Still loosing loads of money and have a skeleton reserves and no under 18's!
