Disaster at donnington.



  Clio 172 cup
Hello I am new to the forum.
But I race in tin tops in cscc. I was doing a test day at donnington when for some unknown reason my fan belt started to fray and yes got caught in the cam belt. Yes the engine is finished. So I am looking to see if this if a fault that anyone else has heard of and I was told that there was a section that you could see what other people are selling parts on the forum. But I can't seem to find it. Any help would be really appreciated. :quiet:

Hi David, welcome to the forum.

If you pay the £12 fee, you will then have a 12 month membership (worth its weight in gold for discounts alone!) and you will then be able to see the parts for sale section.

Wounded to hear this news Dave but yeah, it's a common failure when the automatic tensioned aux belts fail. Is the engine completely dead (ie: piston ninjas have been in and stolen a pot out of the bottom end) or are we just talking about 8-12 bent valves and a new timing belt?

Is this really Dr Dave? This is your number one fan. Nice to see you've joined the Clio club. Would love to discuss - get in touch.
