How did they not notice the cars in the distance? I was watching in on a tiny video screen and I spotted them a good two seconds before they did ffs.

Get a flat head screwdriver or butter knife behind them and lever them off, they're made out of a kind of rubbery plastic so they're quite bendy and won't snap.

Unless you get it live mapped, as in put on a RR and tweaked until they've optimised the power and torque with a print out to confirm it, your best bet for a straight remap is an RSTuner box from FastChip. http://www.fastchip.nl/ I know that's not what you asked, but I thought it was worth...

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere Inlet manifold burgers could work.

I love how almost without fail when someone post pics of their lovely immaculate Clio, we're all more interested in the other cars in the pics. lol I haven't seen a Nova on the roads in years, there's something nice and honest about an old 90s rattle box.

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere I'll be handing out laxatives on the day, every gram helps.

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere There's no stripping involved, it's only a couple of bolts, 5 mins and it's done. Although mine are out because of the dog, I don't have any human friends so I don't need them at all.

At the moment i've only got the 25mm inners, i've got the 23mm outers showing up on Monday, I got the sizes off the Kam Racing website, and varified them with endless thread searches on here. Clio Ph1 2.0 16v RS-172: Outer mount - 22mm, Inner mount - 25mm Clio Ph2 2.0 16v RS-172: Outer mount -...

Thank f*ck for that, I took them out the box and gave them a little squeeze and they split across the whole length, I f*cking shat myself. lol

I've got a set of inner powerflex arb bushes and they're not solid, there's a seam where they open up. Is this normal, I mean are they meant to be solid and you slide them on the arb from the end, or are they designed to be pushed on using the seam that opens up?

They're fitted to the front across the range, most manufacturers tend to make cars with a little understeer as it's easier to control for the general public. When people fit the whiteline arb they find they get a slight increase in oversteer.

Puked on it.

Stopped using 1st gear as my linkage is all f*cked up and needs adjusting.

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news Yep, do not want.

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere Espessially when the filthy old dog kennel destroys all your shiny cars.

Yes totally reliable apart from : exhaust rotting off, gearbox exploding, steering rack going wrong, boot lock needing to be replaced, dampers leaking, intermittent starting issues, steering wheel melting, abs sensor going wrong, exhaust mounts constantly needing replacing, sump gasket...

The for sale section's usually full of them. Pay your £12 quid membership and you can buy what you want from it.

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere You've obviously never shopped in my local Aldi.

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere We'd be better off using a couple of donkeys to tow it rather than that sickly oil burner of yours. lol

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere 172s are built to be used and abused, and I do give dog kennel some f*cking serious abuse!!!!

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere Ok, it's going on a lift next Wednesday to have a new steering rack, i'll get the grease monkeys to have a fiddle and see if they can fix it.

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere Right then lads educate me, what is a band selector, where is it, and can it be replaced?

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere Today my gearbox has decided to start really f*cking up, put it in reverse and you get 1st, put it in 1st you get 3rd. Syncro mesh is obviously f*cked, if it's still in one peice by the time we go I might just let the strip destroy it. Let the f*cking thing go...

Right Uni RS2s are fantastic tyres in the wet and i've seen far better cars than mine aquaplane on standing water, where mine just pounds it's way through with no problems. However they are NOT warm weather tyres in any way shape or form, if you give them some abuse on a nice warm dry day, you...

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere If we go on the weekend where everyone's camping surely it's going to be rammed, resulting in not many runs?

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere I haven't got the money to go on track days, putting the cost of the actual track day aside which is normally quite pricey, i'd want 15s with track tyres and spare brake pads so I didn't shed my daily parts. The dog kennel's having a new steering rack next week...

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere If I was going on a proper track day where it's possible I could flip the car and die then i'd spend some money, but I blast up empty duel carriageways almost everyday wearing nothing more than a smile, so for a quick blast in a straight line up to 90 odd, I...

Re: Drag Racing at Shakesphere Stratford Raceway has made it mandatory for all runs regardless of top speed, the Pod are more relaxed up to 100mph. Edit : Holy sh*t ebay helmets are piss cheap. :D
