the 172 cup only shares it name with the Clio Cup Race Series as well, we are all freeloaders!

And what about the different suspension?

Different wheels?

Different brakes?

The Cup is more than a 172 with bits removed. They should make a proper 182 Cup though.

Its not competely different, but it is definately different...

Revised spring rates, firmer shocks, marginally lower, more front castor, stiffer sidewalled tyres, etc... then theres the lovely lightweight alloys, larger rear spoiler, etc...

Also proven to be quicker in both a straightline and more so on a track.

However, it aint the "stripped out racer" or "homolgation special" that a lot of people seem to think it is!

Its simply a revised road car based on a 172!

Having come for a 306 Rallye, the Cup is positively luxurious in comparison! :eek:

You can say that about a Scooby STi aswell. The Cup has been engineered by performance experts. Its not just the pretty looking 172 that most 172 owners wish it was.
