Cadwell Clio 172

I recently went to Cadwell in my Clio 172 Ph1 after a few man hours of building.



Here is a video of one lap.

Pics from the track day at Cadwell Park 07/06/11

Couldn't you get the steering wheel on straight?

Sweet car though, how cheap are GAZ coilovers?

 

[newyuk]

HEHE. Changed the chamber and caster the day before I went and had to do the tracking by eye (never good) will get it sorted for next track day.

As for the GAZ Shocks....

Liking the car mate.....graphics I bet are a bit marmite with people but I really think the lines you have done suit the car nicely

How have you attached your tow eye at the front as it is in a completely different location to the normal one?

 

[newyuk]

I bolted the strap behind the bumper, then cut a slot for the strap to go through, that way it doesn't stress the bumper if I get pulled out the kitty litter. I know this works as the sister Clio has been pulled twice now. : )

Liking the car fella. Slightly off topic was there a Clio 172 cup there on that day? The guy who bought mine said he was doing this day, it had lovely gold wheels and blanked headlights. Would'nt mind seeing some pics of it thats all. Who was the day with?

Thanks

That's a very good idea mate and because there is already a little lip at that point, a slight piece missing wouldn't notice . What have you bolted it to behind the bumper? If you could post up a couple of close up pics it would be appreciated mate

Really like the look of that, makes a change from the norm.

I was there with your old car mate, loved it. Already got donnington booked for 27th of this month.

I only timed one session i did, my best was a 1min 52. Happy with that for a first time out.

Saw yours there Newy, looks very nice.
