James what time did you take your 172 around the track?


Afternoon slot, was from about 2pm onwards, Didn't set the car up so made for a fun session :D

Good news is the wider track removed the terrible under-steer I was suffering with at Llandow, Trophy Turini's were et45 & i'm now on et38 with the 2118's, car feels really balanced & very predictable.

Nice replacement James, loads left on that shell you sent off, I presume it was bought not scrapped?

I like the idea of the duct for the RS2, interesting. Did you notice any/much difference using it and the boxed off section in the bay?

Meg looks well; I'll look forward to seeing what JMS come up with for it! :)

Are some megane upgrades on the cards for JMS?

Of course, That's the reason behind moving into the Megane, Shall see what we come up with over the coming months ;)

Cheers mate! Yea the shell was bought, The money I got for it I was very happy with even more so that it was all collected the following day!

Welcome to the b00st club

We never carried out any in depth intake temp testing on the heat shield, the main reason behind it was due to the race cell being placed under the seat which left the airfilter open to hot under bonnet temps, final shot was to place a naca duct on the bonnet, there were still a few things I would of liked to play with before it was pulled for parts but the Meggy had been on the cards for some time so when the right one came up it was game over for the Clio :dead:
