it's got a 2 litre block from an old fire damaged Corrado, flowed head with an inlet cam that's been made by cutting the end off an exhaust cam Still runs the antiquated K-Jet mechanical fuel injection, stock cast manifold and downpipe

(copied from a post by GVK on Williamsclio)
The WIlliams does have a few modifications but I don't use the full power band I kept chnaging up at about 6.6k rarther than the 7.25k the engine can now rev to as I'm worried about blowing the bottom end.

Thought it must have been fettled with or engine swap jobby to keep up with a williams.

Nice vid...that first corner at Oulton park is a nasty one isn't it, very sharp coming in off the straight at speed, car just want to chuck you left. Seen some nasty accidents there.

Yep superb track for a Clio realy.
The back double right hander is great fun catching Caterhams as they have to go slow/ run out of guts.
Nope no holding back need better tyres managed to go from brand new to barly legal in the afternoon incluing 1.5 tanks of fuel.

You mean the left hander at the bottom of the hill? I understeared there a few times most noticably following a Porche overtaking another car.
