Hope so, guess we'll find out when I can't get close to my old times.

I'll be lucky to do a 15.00 again, car's not been the same since the belts were changed, I think the timing was out by an amount that made it quicker, now it's timed properly it just doesn't feel as quick.

F*ck me he was slamming those gear changes! I wonder how he gets on in airports with his Al-Qa'ida-chic beard?

I beat Stokie in a straight up race that day, but my best time was 15.00, his was something impossible like 14.4, I reckon he had a tail wind that run. lol

I'd only have the V10 tbh, but if I had that kind of money i'd get the Merc, it's just meaner. If I was buying a budget Wagon i'd get an Impreza.

I don't normally start threads about individual cars, but I though this one deserved it. I think i've found a new baller spec dog kennel! (if I ever win the lottery) The noise! :evil:

There's a plastic O ring at the top of the gaiter holding it to the stick.

Yeah, the lifter's separate from the knob.

You can't it's glued on. The gear gaiter has a plastic thing gripping it at the top, ​is that's what broke?

Lazy boy, only looking at half the picture, *tut *tut.

That's quite nice actually, similar to a ph1 knob, are they screw on or do they have a grub screw?

Ph2 Clio knobs have to be hacked off as they're glued on, easier to just replace the insert. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Renault-Clio-Sport-172-182-Carbon-Effect-Gear-Knob-Insert-/330974359029?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4d0f9bedf5

I like how the thread title's been converted into English.

Looks sh*t.

Well Daniel said : £105 track day £40 Travel lodge Friday night £30 dinner & booze One and a half tanks of super will be the best part of £100 quid. So £250 is a realistic amount for the entire thing.

Well I might be finding out if I can get £250 quid together for Llandow, i'll know by the end of the week if I can afford it. Pretty confident I can make it, just don't want to commit before I have the money. Although I don't class drag days as a track day, just a cheap day out with the lads...

Exactly, spinning off at high speed into a barrier on track is far more likely than something breaking on a 1/4 mile.

Such a good idea to convert one to a work van, if you're going to be driving about in it all day, might as well be something enjoyable. Plus converting a van into an 172 would way more expensive.

That really is a clean flamer, it's going to look amazing as a van.

It shocks people how quick it is, peoples shiny 182's can't f*ck with it y0! :evil: It'd be even quicker if I could afford buckets and alloys. :(

Pair of f*cking benders! Tbh it's probably a good thing you've bottled it, I doubt you'd be able to handle the embarrassment of the dog kennel destroying you.

Anyone got any pics or vids of the storm kit? Never heard of it before.

Don't be a girl, £30 to go head to head with your mates all day, sounds like a good f*cking laugh to me. Yes it's not a proper track day, but it's a cheap day out with the lads blasting cars, what's not to like?

Twitchy in the wet isn't it? lol

LOL @ everyone saying it's a shame to ruin it, it's French it came ruined from the factory, plus it's only a Clio ffs. No one's ever made a 172 into work van, so for that reason it's a great idea.

Yep although he f*cked up his start, but winnings winning, inch or a mile iirc. I gave what's his name in the Skyline a run for his money too, took him the whole 1/4 mile to catch me, only did me by a car length at the line.

I'm up for this, drag days are a cheap day out, not to mention good fun when you destroy someone. :approve:

I'm not sure the internet can cope with that much awesomeness on one page, it might break.

Lucky to not get the roof scratched, can you not use the gazebo's tarp as an improvised car cover?

No, Fred would have punched him in the side of the head.
