Hello chaps, I had my camber and toe set up just before christmas, went for 1.5 neg camber and I was going for around the standard 12mins toe out, as per the common concensus. After speaking to the suspension expert at Northampton Motorsport, who were doing the setup I was advised to go for toe...

Yesterday I did my first sprint on a proper race circuit - Castle Combe, quite an experience, so very different from the hills - the circuit was so wide that I almost did not know where to go and of course was driving at much higher speeds - 100 plus. Still getting some confidence in the DC5...
Hi guys.
Having a nightmare with the car lately. When im travelling 60+ MPH the car feels like its not planted and changing lanes on the M-way or dualcarrage way is becoming very scary. When traveling at speed and steering lightly (ie changing lanes) everything feels loose and the car seems to...

Just been out checking my front tyres and they are wearing out more on the outside of the tyre. Not by much but easily noticable. Was wondering what this is down to, camber angle?(I had my camber adjusted to the factory setting by mark fish) Am doing lots of motorway miles so I guess this is...
i was on my way to the jet washers to clean the car and at the traffic lights lies a mclaren slr, i was hoping he'll go the back route which he did!, and i couldnt believe how good my car is, i took traction control off and its so much better, it turns in so much quicker and it didnt feel scary...
Done a search and I think I may be the first one to report on this!
My Trophy has developed a loud creaking from the rear of the car over the past couple of months, I thought it could have been the interior trim in the boot, or the boot lock and rubber stops, but i've tried replicating the...
Hi guys, just had a wonderfull experiance at my local renault dealer that i brought the car of a mounth ago.NOT.
They owe me to new tyers and had them fitted today and they've fitted firestones instead of the michelin tyres i asked for. Does enyone know weather they are up to much or is it me...
Have just spoken to Rentech in Portsmouth about my Trophys hard ride. I love the car but using it every day, sometimes its just too hard. They have said that they can remove the pins from the dampers which will make the ride softer, however they have not had any feed back from the few trophys...
Did anyone watch it???
At the end of the tunnels when she is sitting in the ultima, (I think), run she was talking to the camera and there was a Trophy parked behind her.
Anyone on here want 2 own up?
Think i might do it next year...
It was from about 2 years ago like..
Thought I'd visit the site again as I keep seeing someone's Trophy whilst on the train.....brought back memories.
It's been almost a year and a half since my Trophy got written off and I've since sold my Focus RS as I got bored of it and got a new toy :twisted:
Check out the pics, what...
Thought I'd share these with you lot. Took them down at Pembrey last Sunday. Comments welcome!
Anyone know anything about the Clio? It was seriously rapid!
Cheers, Rhodri
Now I have my Trophy, which I chose because it would be a fast car on track without modification, I realise, that modifying cars is just too much fun to go without, so I will be modifying the Trophy :)
Just for a bit of fun, and maybe to make the fun last, and perhaps to help others...

I went to Bedford aurodrome the other day and-
In the wet morning the Clio was very tail happy and a whole lot of fun. :lol:
As the track started to dry the car became amazing. As the front started to slide, a very slight lift would bring the back end gently into line with no real danger...

Why does my oil gauge go from half way (normal when hot) down to zero again and vice versa, does it intermittantly but got me worried.
The oil light came on the other day and I topped it up a bit, dipstick shows that its half way between min and max.
I take it the gauge is showing oil...
Hello All,
I am a Renault hot hatch enthusiast. I used to own a Williams and a Trophy and have just finished with an R27 Clio F1 for 3 days.
I used to bang on and on about how great these cars were. They are and I still do. But just to clear things up, the Clio F1 is simply awesome too...

A few questions on these as I don't really know much about them!
can you just buy a set of camber bolts i.e. h&r and get them fitted?
any need for lowering springs or anything?
how much are they and how much are they fitted/set-up?
do they drastically improve handling on their own...
