New here! Clio RS III Trackday R20 (Netherlands)

[KdK]

Hello,

Greetings from the Netherlands (near Rotterdam).
I am Karel and found you guys surfing on the internet.

I own a Clio III RS for all most a year. After buying the car (with 12.000 km on the clock) we started to make it a trackday car.

The rebuild was done by Madeno Racing, they also run a race-team with two Clio's (and some Aston Martins) and run a Clio R3 Rally car. So they know what they are doing.

My car is the number 2 car they build like this but the first one that still may drive on the public road. Technical only the suspension, brakes and exhaust changed.

On the wishlist there is:
- new air intake (+ 11 BHP)
- some changes on the suspencion (more camber)

But pictures are better to let you see hou my Clio is looking. And more easy for me... my English is a bit rusty.


Building the car:

Finally they start to rebuild again:

And this is the result:

And a movie of two laps on Zandvoort.

2 laps on Zandvoort race track movie!

Beacause we like to drive like crazy...? :rasp:
The Clio is a perfect basis for a trackday car.

I don't know. I think in England there are more crazy Clio's than in the Netherlands... You have more trackdays there than here. So who go foreigners grazy with there cars... you are right. Foreigners do go crazy with there cars!

Maybe it's just because any foriegner who posts on here has done a lot to there clio and made a nice job, where as here we are scared of changinf the bulbs incase it looks too different!

More fool us if you ask me.
