Re: 'Cub's Trackday Flamer - Cage etc'
Cheers Ed. A few people heading over to mine on the 14 th, you're more than welcome if you are about. PM me if keen, I'll give you the address.
Sorry meant to put 'the only clio colour'. But, we already know you are 'different' ;) So your car can reflect your 'specialness'. Lol. X
It will look better on Eibachs and with spacers though! :)

Henk (the guy who owns fastchip) is on here - top bloke.
Can I ask a favour please James, can you PM who at Gripper you're dealing with and also how much they charge for recon (if you know).
I'm going to send mine back to them for a recon when the engine is out, save getting it out again in 6k miles or so... :)

Re: Cub 172's Flamer Project

Re: Cub 172's Flamer Project
Plan is;
- Keep standard for 12 months or so.
- Then either cam / ITB (with 421s) it or supercharge it like Danlp6 's which I am hoping to have a ride out in at Bedford in Feb. From speaking to chip last night, Dan's current set up with the charger sounds ideal...
