    Why choose 172

    if you want one, get one, but if your thinking of going faster than a 172 then good luck......they are evenly matched. but if you want a fast bread van, nothing will deliver the toasties faster than a M coupe......flipping fantastic car.

    the rears, yes......the fronts.....its entirely dependant on teh speed/length/surface/angle of the corner. On slow tight circuts, running toe out on the front can help. The rear, running toe in is a safety measure, running perfectly straight or even the tiniest amount of toe out will make the...

    Clio Super 1600

    the engiens are 1600s rd based, they have to use a 60mm restrictor so can make more power. How do they make the power, easy, power is not dictated by capacity but by the amount of air you cna process per unit of time, the more you cna process, the more power you make, and they use rpm to do this...

    Top is toe in, bottom toe out. Toe is the angle that the wheel centreline is pointing relative to the zero which is dead ahead. Toe in is when the direction of the wheels will point in, toe out is when the wheels point out, a very important but basic thing to get right, in general its best to...

    I tested the cliocup races in Zhu Hai as we were thinking of brining the series to asia, but that fell through so the demo car was converted to super production class. Rear settins only went as far as camber and toe, nothing else can really help it apart from the trailing arm pivot but we...

    Toe is toe, nothing else, camber is the angle against the verticle when you view the car from the front, if the top of the wheel leans in, its negative camber,if ti leans out, its positive camber, castor is the line throgh the 2 steering swivel points against the verticle...

    CO2 intercooler cooling

    if your using a CO2 extinguisher, jsut spray it on the intercooler before your run, dry ice will form inside the fins for a short period and help with heat transfer from air to air.

    COILOVERS FITTED AT LAST !!!!

    yes, bump stops......its the true fancy word. The crash is more likely a mount than the suspension coilbinding.
