182Cup - taking the piss

[Munson]

FFS I think I will have to do a track day. My Cup has 3,500 miles on it now and its loosening up nicely. In fact - its taking the piss...this car can cover ground on a twisty road so rapidly when pushed, that I think I need to take it onto a track and start to find its limits - Im never going to explore them on a road without being stupid.

This machine just keeps on giving...I dont think Im a good driver (no track experience) but this car is simply amazing.

Should I do a track day and rape a set of tryes? Im worried Ill drive like a spaz and hold people up

Go book yourself on the RenaultSport one at Brands.

Book the RS Track day at Brands, good track to learn on, the charateristics of the clio is much suited to this Track.

You shouldnt kill a set of tyres Roy...mine have always managed well enough.

Best thing I ever did was get my car on a track... you can really understand what the cars really about then...

I know what you mean, getting to 70/80 mph with plenty more to go you just cant get the best out of the 182 at all without upsetting plod.

I wonder why people run 400 bhp skylines in this country... , seems pointless to me.
