We welcomed the latest addition to the family early December, so now having two under 2 there was no chance I was getting a spare day or 2 on the car to do the fuel tank. Done the gearbox oil last week, originally put the normal elf stuff in along with some modifier but a few people advised...
Thank you mate, not sure on weight will get it weighed soon though I'm hoping under 1100kg
Thanks! It's a motamec roof vent but I got it from motorsport tools as it was cheaper
Update;
Finished up with the wiring and got it all taped back together, still a lot more wiring to be removed but that'll do for now.
Started off with the engine bay battery relocation was surprisingly easy using the duct3d kit, nice simple instructions.
Then decided to spray the...
Ordered a T7 heater and Odysssey pc680 battery a little while ago. Plumbed in the heater just need to wire it up. Ordered a relocation kit from duct3d and will do the battery when the kit comes.
Made up a switch panel, just need to add a switch for the heater and would like traction control...

After Cadwell I decided to start stripping some more weight out of the clio. Never had a proper dedicated track car, so I'm going to go extreme with this one. My goal is to get it under a ton.
That being said, after Cadwell I got started. Brackets and more sound deadening.
Actually...
Cadwell update;
Car was spot on. Gripper diff is incredible so glad I went for one instead of the full cage. The grip on corner exit really is something.
I also fitted some EBC RPX pads a few days before the track day, I was really impressed with them, pedal feel is better than the RS29's that...
I was going to go full cage and polycarb windows over winter but thought the griller diff would be more beneficial. Good job I went down that route along with a gearbox refurb as the box wasn't looking too good.
Sean and his team done an amazing job on the car yet again, really happy and...
Update;
Few bits tided up on the car. Got a portable charger for the camera, got the MRF tyres fitted, fire extinguisher mounted and got myself a new Zamp helmet. Nice bit of kit.
Had an evening at Bedford on 4th July, went really and only 1 red flag.
I was impressed with the tyres...
I can't wait to get back here in August!
And of course a post track day clean.
I've ordered up some bigger grip pedals, they should be here Tuesday so this morning I removed the metal ones and also the grip on the foot tray and tidied it up abit. Also got rid of some more plastics...
Update;
I was going to buy a PMS exhaust and manifold over the winter but luckily one come up for sale but with a Cobra cat back, should be delivered sometime this week.
KTR induction kit also come up for sale on Facebook, after everyone saying how good they sound I thought I'll buy it...
Hope it's cool to post my RB 197 track car. Polished and sealed a week ago and took delivery of my new phone couple days back, so took the car out to my favourite spot this morning.
Picked the car up from Jade Developments on 27th May, Sean really knows his stuff and sorted the car out as it was abit of a mess.
Geo setup
Corner weight
Removal of unnecessary wiring
New radiator fan (current one was wired up incorrectly and was dead)
General tidy up in the engine...
KTR cup style spoiler got delivered and test fitted it. Dropped it off to the father in law and he got it sprayed.
Took out for a drive last weekend to make sure the pins were safe all was well but started noticing some overheating issue when stationary for a while. Pulled over and noticed...
Update:
Stripped the front end of the car including sound deadening.
I was tad big for the sparco's so I sold them and bought a corbeau pro series in XL, only the 1 for now. Also used a plumbers tap blank for the hole where the aerial used to be. SW motorsport side mounts as I found the...
Been a while since I last drove something that was fun. My third Renault sport now first one being a 182 and second being a megane, love the cars for the price you pay I think they're great!
Anyway picked up this 197 in racing blue yesterday from a nice chap called Sam, he said the car was...
Anyone's on here? Spotted this poorly 200 at the McDonald's on the roundabout, looked decent from a way back. Either stolen or just happened? Was a right state.

I sold the 250 back to ktec in June, currently driving a meg mk2 1.5dci. Trying to save for a house and was never going to happen if I kept the 250 lol!
I ran RSR's and were ok. I suppose you get what you pay for? I've heard nothing but good things about the DZ03G tyres though. I'd definitely...
When David (Ktec) came to pick my 250 up we were talking about this car. It is properly well spec'd and set up! For the price they had it up for you've got yourself a right bargain imo.
As stated above though I can't see why people spend so much money on them CAE shifters. Just my opinion of...
