The Sunflowers have one, so do the Racing Blues and even the Arctic Blues... ...why are Mondials being left out? I shall start with my dented ex-daily/track car, currently in hibernation waiting for me to find the time to turn it into a proper track car... Where are the rest of...

It will be at Snet Russ? Is the racing Sunday and Monday? I was thinking of popping up for a watch.

Would you like to donate this to me once you're done? I really want one lol.

These have grown on me a lot recently. Whilst I like the 306, I'd take the Megane all day long. If it was a standard GTI-6 it might be different, but that's just because of my weird attitude towards forced induction on normally aspirated hot hatches lol. Meg looks good in red. Would ditch the...

Love it. I really like it in saloon form as well, looks really aggressive. I think it's carried over to the latest version too, I would have an M3 over an M4. The wide arches just look really good on a four door body in both cases. Nice purchase!

engine definitely sounds "proper" Can't wait to see it when you can put some more revs through it!

Holy funking moly, I did not see the video! Wooo, good times. Now get it mapped so we can see what's what!

Is it running yet?

Harsh man, there was still SOME paint left, which surely made them a solid 1/10 lol. Glad they came out ok, amazing how bad they were really! I should have had them done myself really but I am way too lazy lol.

I really like the wheels. Sleepers do nothing at all for me. It's modified so it should look like it. Little drop and will be spot on.

Yes, the prevailing feeling towards the stages is still very much rear or four wheel drive. A competitive RWD car can really be big money though. It's one area where I think racing is much better organised. The class system in rallying really does mean that money talks. At least in circuit...

Lordy, I was struggling to even identify what it was from that picture! You bashed pretty much every obvious MK1 feature out of it from side-on! Never been tempted back onto the stages?

I really would love a 16v/Williams, they are so so cool. One of the best proportioned hot hatches ever in my view.

A roll cage in a daily would drive you nuts. If you're only doing the odd track day or 'ring trip, then it isn't really necessary. If you're driving so fast at the 'ring that rolling is a possibility, then you're probably driving too fast anyway.

Looks well Keith. If mine was like that I would be very happy!

Car is now back, having had new steering rack and ARB bushes fitted, along with the alignment adjusted. It is better without doubt, but the tramlining is still present. Mark said he couldn't see any cause for it. He said my tyres aren't ideal, which I agree with, so that might be making it a...

Seat is a bit loud for my taste but looks great otherwise. Will be very interesting to see how this goes compared to the 1*2s.

It's ok. I did have some issues with a baffle coming loose but it was replaced under warranty. One of the stainless options is probably better for performance but I just wanted something cheap and cheerful and didn't want a load of noise.

I have a Klarius OE type one on mine. Euro Car Parts sell them, they're not very expensive.

This. And this. Took my rally car "off the road" for a couple of months to give the interior a little freshen up. Three years later and it's still little more than a rolling shell!

Not got the car back yet, having a couple of other things done at the same time.

Beautiful that.

The Fiesta ST is a great car, but outgunned in that company. The turbo power of the Megane has its temptations, as the n/a Clio can feel a bit over stretched at times. At least with the Megane you would have more grunt to pass people on the straights. But, more cost and potential stuff to go...

Most interesting. Did you Tricolore guys race there last year? Would be interesting to see some lap times across the different classes. Not that I want to thread hijack!

172 Cup on Williams wheels:

You all need to do it, I want to see some lap times round Snet 300 for me to compare to!

Looks good, nothing like a nicely painted interior. Do you want some R3 carbon mirrors? Lol

When's the key being turned Mark? The suspense is killing me!

I've not noticed any clicking or clunking sounds from my car. My symptoms just seem to be severe tramlining and steering wriggle under hard acceleration on uneven roads, much more than other 172s I've driven. It's going to Mark Fish on Monday and he is fitting poly rack bushes amongst other...

Glad to hear it. I'm still tempted to get you to have a look at a JC5 for me though! There's also my MTX75 to consider, so you better hurry up and finish your car so you can get on with those lol.
