Pictures look great mate :) I used to have a R27 and used it often on track and it was awesome! Absolute minefield in my opinion if you fit full slicks to the 200 you will be forever chasing issues such as uprated bushes, increased wear on lot's of parts and don't forget that most trackday...

Plans sounds good mate, didn't I read somewhere yesterday that you are going to turbo it? Look forward to seeing progress :)

Just found this while I was searching the internet for cheap r888's and thought it may be of use to some people. From what I hear they are supposed to be a pretty good track tyre so at £55 each for 15's you can't go wrong! Hope it helps :) http://www.racecarnewmedia.com/bmtr/news.asp?NewsID=45

They do sell them separately yes and I think the one for my R27 was just shy of £200 when it got buckled. If you become a full member on here you will get access to the traders section and contact West's Renault they do discount for full members and have great service :)

Read through this whole thread and I can't believe I haven't seen it before! I knew that you were building a car for CSCC but didn't realise you had a thread for it :) It was a really interesting read from start to finish! The car look's great and I love everything you have done. Interesting how...

Ahh yes they are good at Lessian, I know a couple of people that have paint done there and it has come out really well so glad to hear another positive review of them :) I will keep my eye's peeled for the car when I'm driving around!

Looks great Nick! Where did you get the paintwork done? Somewhere local? :)

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Thanks Tony :D I really appreciate all the advice and time you've taken to help!

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Another very minor update: Got my ARDS booked for the 27th March and also got the 3rd April at Brands with my instructor for the day. I was hoping to do two days at Brands before the first race as I have...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Thanks Lewis, really appreciate it :)

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Will do mate as said the earliest it will be is mid May after the first race :)

Can't way to see how much you like it Colin :)! Bet your very excited now

Sounds like a great result Mark :) I think my biggest fear for getting it done would be that it was still drivable on the roads so if it can manage that then on track I think you will love it! I'm glad to hear its drivable as I need to scrub in a new set of tyres next weekend on mine so I now...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Hi Phil, It really is a great track! As Colin says it is on the 11th March, it looks to be a really quiet day which should be good :) You should come up! Colin knows all the answers today :) Yes it's boot...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Very Small Update Got Anglesey all booked up yesterday so really looking forward to getting up there! Will be another good opportunity to get some decent miles on the car. Only 14 people booked so far on the...

Just dug out the email from my last booking and it was £91 for 4 days with Sixt for a Fiesta so it sounds like you have found a decent deal and the one Jay mentioned sounds a bargain :) Have fun!

I normally just use the hire car comparison sites and then read through the wording to see which company will be supplying to check its a fairly major company and go with that. I'm afraid I can't remember what I paid last time I was down that way :(

As Jay say's check the hire car when moving from country to country I have had to pay the hire car company a fee for the required paperwork to cross borders etc. Last time I had to do it was with europcar and I think they charged an extra €3 a day so it's not the end of the world but they...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He I know it was a beauty :) Had black wheels and a black reg plate! Haha I know I know :rasp: Got faster as the day went on just don't have any video's ;)

Haha woops ;) lol! It certainly looks like a decent shell :)

Yeah I'm sure it'll be fine, Not tempted to get a diff in while its out? ;) Was it the same box that was in it when it was supercharged? I remember seeing it at Pauls years ago!

Yeah I'm good thanks mate :) I am looking forward to seeing it at some point soon! Yes they turned mine round quickly and as you mention above they just charge for what it needs so mine came out pretty cheap as they didn't need to change much!

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He From memory I think it was black Jonny, in fact just found a photo of it on my photo bucket It was going pretty well and the owner wasn't afraid to give it the beans :)

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Sorry mate I promise it wasn't on purpose ;) Thank you very much and I hope your enjoying the trophy now you've got it back :)

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He Thanks mate, Yeah it is a great circuit probably my favourite although I'm pretty rusty round it atm but looking forward to getting back into it! Haha it does seem to of been popular even if i'm not 100% lol...

Sounds great Lewis, the car looks like its doing really well! You must be over the moon with it! Shame about the gearbox :( Is Matt sending it off to CTS? They did my box and did a very good job! Hope your well :)
