Would'nt having a real hard coilover set up make the car a bit skitish in the wet.I'm sure theres a fine balance between doing too much and being subtle when it comes to lowering and having coilovers in general.
A great start would be to have some standard new shocks and lower it 30mm say and...
TVR's embaress supercars and i dont think theres a clio in existence that would get close exept matt blacks TT and then he would be having a hard time...I remember an article in fast ford a couple of years ago when a guy with a 550bhp saphire was left by a tuscan

All this talk of who's who eh,i dont know.My mate has a 12 year old VR6 and after 80 it used to pull away from my 182 and it had 134k on the clock...
Its up to you really,ones better built and one aint

This must waste so much time waiting around to...
Ive had 3 races in the 182 with vts's.2 of them were all tinted glass very clean and i did pull away.The last race i had was with a silver one that looked standard but had been lowered.It killed me in every gear and i had no chance,even over 100+...great little cars imho

That was a test and this was a d/c i.e roundabout/junction/straight
I find it hard to believe that a car with all the credentials of the BMW only pulled 5 cars on a clio.I maybe wrong who knows or maybe he pulled off in 4th
