Here's my efforts from the afternoon at the Rs day. These are 2:06-2:08's as there weren't any megs on slicks to chase! The rear wheel bearings are fucked in this video as well, so it made it a bit more lively on the rear end. Them curb stones at Brittens didn't like me straightlining them. Lol!

[Mr Burns]

Done it in the high 1:40's ,low 1:50's (1990's).............in a Volvo 850 BTCC car with me no where near the drivers seat .........I was strapped in the passenger seat ...might have been Rickard Rydell if not one of the test drivers ......corporate race event sponsors outing don't remember to much .........the only thing I do remember is S##t he's a bit late on the brakes......

Yeah!! Now that's more like it!!

 

[imprezaworks]

Awesome. I'd love to have the opportunity to do that

 

[Tony Hunter]

Great car, full or short circuit?

 

[gnome]

Full circuit 2.6 miles .........just for my own curiosity I have just googled some old BTCC circuit times around Oulton and over the years they have used both short and full ....however a 850 in race trim would get around the full track in 141's-142's ............which means when I was in the car it was basically a Sunday morning drive .....like i said in the previous post the one thing that stuck in my mind was the ability to scrub speed like nothing on earth............I have been in some very quick cars in my time but that thing was off the scale

 

[Tony Hunter]

Great feeling isn't it.

 

[gnome]

Great feeling yes ...but sadly after been in one of them with a real driver you realise that you are no where near the driver you thought you where .............or will ever be !!!!!!

 

[EVOgone]

2.02-3s in my trackday car with no diff and dead brakes. Rallycar is in the 1.50s.

 

[imprezaworks]

What's the spec of the track car?

 

[EVOgone]

235bhp / stripped out - with new std brakes / pads it should be 2min mark and with LSD sub 2mins.

 

[imprezaworks]

Did wonder if it was turbod

 

[EVOgone]

Thinking of selling it as it's done 100 miles a year, never gets used! Great car and quickest track Clio I have come across.

 

[imprezaworks]

can imagine it goes very well mate. Use it more

 

[EVOgone]

I know work work work....

Was at Oulton on Saturday again. Great day for the weather.

Quite a few fast cars there, GT3 Porsches, Clio Cup Racers, Ginettas.

Did a bit of a test with the Whiteline ARB, had it disconnected for lunch and connected back up after lunch. The lap times were suprising too and it actually made a fair difference I think. Was doing 2:16's without it and 2:13's with it.

Spec is H&R Coilovers, CL RC5+ Pads and AD08R tyres.

A little video of one of the faster laps (track map is a little iffy due to phone internal gps)



My brother in his Megane 225 on road tyres and Cooksport springs with Stage 1 remap was doing 2:10/11's

 

[imprezaworks]

Watched your video the other day james, great driving mate. Those meganes just seem to be effortless quick

 

[JamesBryan]

Cheers mate.

Better straight line pace with the Megane, it will be amazing if it had a diff, coilovers and track tyres!

 

[imprezaworks]

Last time I went there was a chap (on here) who shared the garage etc. his megane was on slicks, a tad fast

 

[JamesBryan]

Was it @ROB91 Megane? His is quick!

 

[imprezaworks]

No mate. He messaged me the last time I booked asking if he could say hi etc. doesn't come on very much, forget his username now. Nice chap though.

 

[JamesBryan]

Ahh right, there's a few over on the Megane forums that do Oulton a fair bit. It's probably one of them.

 

[just-that-ek]

Could be Dave Taylor was it the red megane?

 

[imprezaworks]

No mate. Black megane, chap from Newcastle. Forget his name now 😧

Boom @ChewyB

When I was there last August for the Rs oulton day, there was a youth with a blue r26 that was stripped and caged running on slicks, but only on the front.
I have no diff in my car currently. And he couldn't get away from me. :wink:

Yeah that was him. Had a piss pot style helmet on.

 

[imprezaworks]

He was lapping under two mins, data logged aparantly. Didnt strike me as story teller.

I'd definitely agree with those laptimes on slicks mate for sure. The R26 r's were as fast as f**k on the Rs day.
