sonny172cup · Mar 14, 2015

Looking good guys.

Martin. · Mar 16, 2015

Love them!

Martin. · Mar 16, 2015

Just watched the video, they look SOOOO much fun!! Seriously capable cars.

Cub. · Mar 16, 2015

Looks like brilliant fun. Especially with both of them so evenly matched.

When do I get a passenger ride?

Greeny. · Mar 16, 2015

Awesome guys, keep us updated as always

Looking forward to more videos

MG cup · Mar 17, 2015

I have missed all the sale of parts on here and the arrival of the new car, it's looking nice.

I just scrolled through quickly and will read in more detail later but you wouldn't still have the bracket for mounting the breather tank for sale? It would save me a job.

ALD · Mar 18, 2015

Bring on the modifications

Lal B3N · Mar 18, 2015

They both look like mega fun! Sounds awesome too.

Haha yes been a fairly swift swap!

No sorry I sent it out with the catch tank

Plan is to keep them standard they are worth so much more as standard cars, keeps them equal, keeps them fairly cheap to run and stops any spending

See how long we can keep them that way

MG cup · Mar 22, 2015

If you wouldn't mind James, who did you sell it to out of interest, just to see if it's surplus to them.

BIGASH · Mar 22, 2015

Just dug through my pm's was Richy182

ALD · Mar 22, 2015

Well if you need the head doing I would love to see how it can be improved.

Adam93 · May 21, 2015

I think i just saw you filling up at Shell, J16 M6 ? i only saw the car leave on the back of the trailer or else i would have come over and took a few snaps. Stunning looking racer.

Yeah, Mark and I meant to say, thanks for the loan....epic car 😂

Greeny. · Jul 16, 2015

Saw you 'I think' at the Snetterton track evening last night, car was going well

Robmarriott · Jul 16, 2015

Does it automatically blip the throttle or do you still have to heel and toe even with the sequential box?

You should of come and said hi! I didn't have a passenger at any point of the night so could have taken you out in it.

Robmarriott said:

Nope it doesn't blip so heel and toe really smoothens it up, couldn't last night though as had a problem with the gear position sensor so was too busy counting gears rather than also trying to heel and toe

Great stuff will be good to catch up

Bring a lid!

C l a r k e y · Jul 23, 2015

Nice to catch up James
Thanks for the ride, really enjoyed it.

eastlmark · Jul 23, 2015

James, what are you reading on the old noise meter?

Yes was great to catch up with you both

glad you enjoyed!

The std racer exhausts are LOUD! We bought the std road car exhausts and put a flared joint on so the back boxes are interchangeable in no time. The road back box makes its suitable for pretty much any track. We thought they were robbing them of power so did back to back on dyno and there was only 1bhp in it.

Tony Hunter · Jul 25, 2015

1bhp, not bad then.

BIGASH · Apr 13, 2016

Nearly a year since updating this thread! Been really busy year with work but we got the car out at Brands a few weeks ago and then Nurburgring and Spa last weekend! Still running the cars on the Dunlop DZ03’s as saves a fair bit of money compared to running them on slicks. Cars were running really well and lots of fun! Hoping to race at Silverstone next weekend just trying to sort some logistical issues out! Got few other trackdays planned with another trip to Spa and the Ring along with Zolder. Towards the end of the year we are going to BRNO, Slovakia Ring and Hungaroring in the Clio’s for my stag do along with a few messy nights in Budapest and Bratislava!

And yes Eau Rouge is flat! Fox hole at the Ring should have been too but had some tyre scrubbing so was playing it safe.

See videos below :smile:

Epic Clio is epic [emoji1303]

Have you got a YouTube channel with these videos on?

BRNO and the Hungaroring are epic in a Clio.

sonny172cup · May 3, 2016

Looks like a great trip mate, I really miss the Spa and Ring trips...i'v got a few mates heading over to zolda soon, wish I was going
