Id check your camber mate. If its out you can start a race series with OliS

Take the piss all you want and make wild claims about your dampers being better blah blah blah, but you look pretty stupid, because at the end of the day the camber on my road williams is spot on, and yours resemebles a plate of spaghetti. Added to that is the fact that my track car has...

Sachs tolerances would be set by reno and would therefore follow normal reno manufacturing practice. Dont kid yourself they will have better tolerances than williams dampers than are in fact made by De Carbon, a rival damper company. There is no evidence to suggest that Sachs have better build...

TBH, i bet if you take your springs off and measure them, they will be different lengths and different poundages. I bet if you take your wishbones off, they are different weights. I bet if you measured your dampers they have different bump and rebound settings. This is a 15k reno. Its cheap for...

For road and occassional track use here is my advice: LEAVE IT ALONE You cant adjust anything easily so might as well use a good compremise set up, which Renault have already provided you with :wink:

Stolen your aerial? Bold move that. Best go for a fast spin down to Renault to get a new one. These sort of people should be hung out to dry. :P

My new resevoir dampers have just arrived :D

I reakon 10 lap endurance run round anglesey. Fastest overall time.

Another wise man once said 'when oil light comes on, stop driving' :wink:

Because they shine :D

Just to remind you that wihtout the scientist that developed and scientifically tested the basic laws of physics, we wouldnt even have the internal combustion engine. If all our ancesters were like the jesus we would still be sitting in caves argueing about whose rock was quicker and what...

Are you going to try to get your car on three wheels at the next track day Jesus?

And as for SQM, wel that is just a waste of clutch imo

Nick is an engineer not a scientist. Whats your point?

Ive already agreed to the test.

it's a simple case of run the car with and without, all it needs to show is if their is an increase in power... So you run the car with induction kit. It gets 150 bhp. You then take it off and run it again with standard airbox and it gets 140 bhp. What does that prove? Does it prove: That...

I will only race on track. I will only race my track car on track. If you want Williams v Trophy i will be prepared to hand both cars over to an experienced driver (who is insured) and let him put them through their paces.

Ok tell me how you would scientifically test whether an IK was an effective modification for a Clio trophy? I hand you a make and model of a kit and you have to go and test its effectiveness. How would you do it?

How is a rebuilt engine not original? Thats like saying your car is modified because the tyres wore down and so you replaced them. WTF? Youve lost it mate. You sure your love for 2lives has not given you a nasty infection that is destroying your immune system?

I am a research scientist of 10 years +. I undertake scientific comparisons for a living. I wont get into dependent or independent variable or statistical analysis, but surfice to say two different drivers in their own cars is about as scientific as claiing the moon is made of cheese because it...

Trouble is mate, that is NOT a scientific test. Its purely subjective.

Who compares things objectively for a living? Me or you? I know more about objective testing than youve had hot dinners. I saved the lexus lights for the northern posse. I mean, most of you are already well on your way to being chavs, so might as well stop the charade and just fit the bloody...

So if i win, how do you know its not because im a better driver? If you win, how do we know its not because your lap time was set when the track was at its best? If its not objective then its worthless. Might as well go racing round the roundabouts in swindon with our cheap after market...

Like i said im open to a proper objective appraisal.

We have 1 hybrid (breaking with 68,000 mile williams 3 engine), 3 williams and 1 fast black 172. So now i have more experience than most with various 2 litre clios. The hybrid is stupidly quick. I have no idea why, it just scares the shit out of me. :shock: It would pull fairly convincingly...

Im happy for an insured impartial journalist to compare the 2 cars back to back. It would proove nothing having a race if we were driving as it would come down to driver ability.

:shock:

Are we reading the same thread here? :roll:

Jesus, give up. We dont want a my cars faster then your car thread, but pretty much everyone here agrees (except you) that a P1 would beat any 2 litre clio in mildly tuned form, comprehensively.
