Another 1.8 16v cliosport conversion



  Some of a Clio 1.8 16v
Haven't posted on here for a while now,
Since trackday season has come around again along with a small bit of sunshine and Moo's birthday, we decided it was the perfect time to arrange a trackday.
Advertised on Facebook we saw an Opentrack trackday cheap at Cadwell Park
So, with a quick check over the Clio, only a couple of slightly loose bolts caused by the vibrations, the Clio was ready to go.
I lent Moo a £300 Saxo VTS I had laying around and my mate Jamie readied his £500 Clio 172. So we set off for Cadwell.

Had a brilliant day round Cadwell with no unreliabilities, Moo had a rather huge spin round the Goose neck in the Saxo.
I'll let the pictures do the talking

Honestly can't recommend Cadwell enough! A fabulous circuit for fast,modified and slow cars alike!
Also strapped a camera to the side of the car and took it for a few laps

Hehe, I did get passed by a fully stickered up and serious looking race DC5 Integra just before lunch and I wasn't catching that again. But other than that I think I stayed ahead of everything else.

Mic wise I only borrowed the camera so it came with whatever it came with. I was impressed with the mount though, I reckon it would've lost the filler out of the quarter panel before the camera went anywhere!!
