Where can I see more of this Clio?

[-Danman-]

Saw this Clio the other day in a thread on here but can't seem to find anything else about it.

Does anyone know of a build thread or anything similar?

Cheers, Dan

It does doesn't it

Yeah I want to know what mods have been done!

I like the way the rear window is smaller to allow space to put the spoiler mounts.

He's thought of everything! I like the front splitter set up

Any idea what that thing is under the rear window?

Fuel filler ain't it?

 

[-Danman-]

Fuel filler ain't it?

I thought that but what advantage would it have over the normal petrol filler cap?

Obviously it would be less hassle and quicker but they're not timed for filling up in hill climbs are they? (I've no idea)

EDIT: If it is, why are there two holes? :S

It depends on if its a multi use car, as in different series/groups or multi drivers, where turnaround means running in a different time bracket. Or just because it's using a fuel cell and this filler neck is the only option for filling it......
One hole let's fuel in while the other hole lets the air out, we had this on our GT1 car at Quaife.

Didn't think of the car being used for different things.
Yeah my Dad has just explained the system to me. Thanks dude!

Check out the rear arches

Check out the rear arches

Mainly what I was looking at tbh! Damn Rota's!

 

[S_E_A_N]

I like the way the rear bumpers cut, surly thats a better solution than people drilling circle holes into the rear and it looking a mess.

 

[Chip-mk1]

I would say it's got a fuel cell and that's just the filler.

 

[Steven103]

Yes it's 100% a "twin dry-break" fuel filler.

* Flows well over 2 litres per second if using an FIA fuel rig.
* No on/off switch, self opens & closes, fuel flows constantly from the moment it locates to the moment it's removed (no messing around with fuel caps or triggers etc. in a racing pitstop)
* Breather makes a completely closed circuit so when the car is full fuel just circulates back into the fuel rig (i.e. you just fill it up till you see air bubbles, no need to worry about fuel spilling onto your feet when it's full)


One very big problem with them though. It relies on some very stiff springs, but a spring can never close instantly. So when you take the filler off the car there is an awkward moment where fuel is still coming out...

...and oh look, it's positioned right above a wheel/disc/calliper/pad that is so hot it's smoking. How quickly can you say the word "fire?". Rare but you get a few flames from vapour & a slightly cinged quarter panel every now and again. As Matt said, used on basically everything that needs to refuel mid race. From (ex)GT1 & all the Le Man stuff right down to converted Clio Cup Racers that run in Britcar etc.

Ferraris have a single dry-break each side (one fills one breaths) and cheaper stuff occasionally has a single dry-break that fills & breaths through one filler.

Great info, especially about the flow rates and spills. I didn't know that.

you are correct but 2 holes 1 is fuel in the other is vapour out and they may not be allowed to use a funnel & jerry can like us mere clubmen rallyists their systems may have to stay sealed while filling
