Renault Sport number 4!

Thanks Ron!

I'd really like to! It's a busy old year with the missus expecting, i'm also looking at maybe hitting the ring this year at some point and trying to possibly buy a bigger house aswell lol. We'll see... Still alot of members i'd like to put faces too aswell! :o
 
The seating position isn't that much lower to be honest. I love how they look but find them uncomfortable. I think I'd put up with that though because they look perfect.
 
Looks lovely.

standard colour wheels work perfect.

Seats finish the car off well
 
looks lovely, need some recaros in mine.

On a side note without trying to start a massive debate, how do you find it compared to your old exclusive?
 
In all honesty mate, because of the weather I haven't really pushed the Cup, and I won't do until we get better weather...

That said, first impressions are that the Cup feels stiffer, the ride is alot less forgiving but i actually like it - feels taught, I can imagine it being very capable on track.

The steering geometry has just been done with four brand new tyres aswell so it drives straight as an arrow and grips very well on the Falken rubber this coupled with the better seating position of the Recaro's makes it 'feel' like it drives better.

If I could change anything about the Cup it would have to be a throttle cable, it makes for a better drive!
 
I thought the same about it being a bit more grippy and raw but didn't know if it was just in my head. Wish I had the recaros as well they look so good!
 
They are pretty good chairs, although if I remember the standard items are pretty comfortable aswell??

Yeah I know what you mean mate. My 2 year old changed my social life completely! Hopefully you can make it mate.
 
Cheers Alex!

Aye its great fun, very stiff compared to a Phase 1. I don't know if its just in my head or what but there's something there...

As i said earlier, the biggest thing i miss about the Phase 1 is the throttle cable! Definatley noticeable on song, I've not really had a chance to stretch its legs yet as per the weather but i'll probably do a wee write up in the spring with pictures of all my Renault Sport's and a wee comparison then!
 
Keep on looking at this Dan, it's really not helping my urge to get another RenaultSport.
