track

Is it ok to do so? I wont be doing loads of track days as such but want to get some in next year. Have been thinking about getting bucket seats etc and changing the steering wheel but have had second thoughts as to wether its worth it for the odd occasion. I already have all the polybushed...

Anyone on here? Unfortunately didn't get a chance to speak to either driver. Didn't see the inferno out on track either but the RB seemed rapid to say the least! :smile:

I recently bought this tidy little 172 as a track toy, only to find out it has quite a history on the forum, which was nice to see and helps me out with some of the details should I ever need them like which paint code of white it is.... lol Here's the for sale ad from 2009 ...

Dudes and dudettes, I've been a member of this forum ever since I got my Clio 182 about 6 years ago now. I've always used and abused the forum mainly for knowledge, to ask questions and to buy and sell goodies. I thought it time i gave something back! This car is the love of my life and the...

Hi Seen this on eBay thinking of getting for a track car Was it anyone's on here and is it over price.

Just wondered if anyone could shed some light on the trailer/towing situation, I've recently purchased a trailer to tow my track with, I'm just unsure on what vehicles are best to use for towing, as I've heard there are certain weight limits different cars can take? Any help much appreciated.

I thought with most having GoPro or alternatives now, it would be fun to see your offs. We all have them! Here is my little one from Sunday to start things off.

Is there a minimum recommended to change over to new pads I was just wondering ad my CL RC6 are about half worn (can't remember exactly how much was on them new but look about half maybe a little more) and was wondering how low before they should be changed. I changed my last set as I had a...

Evening all, I have removed the entire dash board from my car (see below) but still want somewhere to put the switches, radio, heater controls etc in the centre as it will still be a road legal car. Does anyone have any experience with this? I am guessing I will have to make something myself...

Track car being towed by a van, 182 following (lowered, exhaust modded etc). Z4M passed you - hello.

How much are people paying for Hunter Aligment? Got quoted £50 by Kwik Fit and my local Tyre Specialist Place (Who I'd probably go with) What the chap did mention was that if the Clio 182 doesn't have a fixed rear beam (He didn't know off the top of his head, and neither did I - he did offer to...

Currently driving my 1.6 about and there's a knocking coming from the front of the car increasing frequency with the speed of the wheels. At first I thought it sounded like a loose wheel bolt but they're all tight. That's when I noticed it only knocks when the steering wheel is between neg 20...

I've got a track car with standard shocks and heavy duty springs, spacers in the front with a 2 deg camber. Handles great. Would I improve handling and lower track times with GAZ Gold?

Hi Guys, I'm booked in at Brands this coming Thursday and the car I had planned to use now has issues and I want to use my 172 so as not to loose out totally. Do I need a tow eye to get on track ? will they turn me away without one ? Cheers Paul

My off side front track rod end has a lot of play in it, which will explain the odd noise I'm hearing from down there. Are these best replaced in pairs? Or can I jut replace that one?

Not sure about the steelies lol :)

182 FF, standard wheels. The car is currently on above size. The car's running Pilot Sport 3's on the front and they're incredible. P Zero Nero's on the rear. The fronts are wearing down and will be due some soon. I do about 5k miles a year, often not even that as it's simply a nice dry day...

Hi all, new owner of a 200 Clio 172 in silver. This was bought for track only purposes and is the successor to my N/A MR2. I have stripped most of the weight out with all the usuals and replaced all but windscreen with 1mm polycarbonate too. I'll be leaving the dash in but not much else. I'm new...
