One of the professional photographers at the ring got a picture of my clio going round the track. Quite happy with it :)
Time to stiffen up that suspension and upgrade the brakes i think...
I don't have any words yet but will put something together soon. But for starters, here are some videos I have uploaded from the "on-board camera" we rented :)

Damian Hill - Renault Clio Sport 172 - Nurburgring...
Absolutely loads of Clios at the ring on Saturday, mostly blue ones. Spotted one trophy, and a striped out liquid yellow. Chatted to a couple of guys who had Cliosport stickers. Sorry I didn't have my 182 there, but I did manage to scare the sh4t out of my wife when i took her round in her car...
Just got back from what can only be described as an awesome weekend, if you haven't been to the ring then go, if you have been, then go again, I certainly will be. It's a MUST for any petrol head.
Did 4 laps in the 182, clocked a 10:40, which isn't too bad considering I had no idea where I...
Hey guys, im taking the 182 to the Ring soon.
This is not my first trip to the ring at all, however it will be my first in the Clio.
Ive spent alot of time there in my Impreza, but the clio is a rather different animal.
Im by my own admission a very harsh braker. I cooked my Subarus Brembos...
Hey guys a couple of weeks ago, I went to the Nurburgring with a mate from uni, and about 19 others ;)

Clio 172 Cup - stripped out
Astra VXR - tuned...
Me and a friend are going to the ring next month and obviously aren't covered on the track so I was hoping that someone could recommend a website for a days cover? Also how much should I expect to pay? I'm 21 with 2 years no claims bonus if that makes much difference! Thanks alot, J
So...I and Ben had a track day booked with Destination-Nurburgring for both days (18th/19th July) which had been booked for some time to help motivate getting the car finished and ready. The car in question is a 106 GTI (Project thread here) which is not fully up to date.
Anyway moving on we...

Clios been getting a sound thrashing at lots of trackdays and a Ring trip this last month. Thought I would share a few of the pics. Think its done 3 Bedford nights (including the Renaultsport one, where me and Tony kicked the life out of it!) a Brands day and a Ring Trip in last 8 weeks alone...

Hi all,
I have a 2003 1.4 16v, done a few trackdays in it as standard with the philosophy that the greatest speed improvements I can make is in my driving. However... I'm going back out to the ring in july and am looking to make the most of it!
So, I have now fitted eibach pro's, and am...
Hi all, just got back from another Nurburgring trip, thought I would share a few pics I took on the way. I drove a friends Impreza which was awesome, first time I have driven the ring in anything other than a clio. With 400 bhp, 4wd and some toyo 888's it was awesome!
Its the first time I have...

We picked up an accident damaged Clio 182 on a 54 plate...
Well here is my writeup from a mad week or so. Put the kettle on because I have condensed this as much as I can. Thought I would share on here as it's a trip definately worth doing.
