From yesterday. Saw a couple of other Trophy's as well, Spank-It being one of them, not sure on the other :oops:
New suspension setup on the Trophy is fantastic (set to -2.8 degrees negative front / -1.8 degrees rear), maybe not in the wet mind you, but when it dried out; lift, turn in, foot...
Just wondering how many of the Trophy drivers on here did regular or occasional trackdays?
Trophies are certainly built for the job and go really well on track but I've had no replies on the event thread I started here and the trackdays forum seemed a bit quiet generally :-k .
I assumed there...
Hi all,
Any suggestions who to try for insurance including track day cover. Had a quote from Greenlight that seems reasonable but interested to hear any other options.
Cheers
Good to meet you all today, and have a good poke around some lovely cars! Now want a V6. Glad the lovely Welsh weather held out :lol: despite the conditions the camera held out and managed to a fair few snaps which can be found here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/paulduddle ... 076669757/

Hi,
I test drove a Megane 250 Cup and Clio Sport 200 back to back today and I can't decide which is better.
The car will mainly be a daily driver with occasional trackday use.
The handling of both is great but the Megane might be a better car to live with day to day (if only it looked better)...

Anyone tried Federal 595 RS-R's : semi slicks like R888's - they are significantly cheaper than Toyo's and seem to get good write up's elsewhere. I'm need a new set of track only rubber (was on 888's) and might try them ????
I just read on a recent topic that shell v power is good for reducing the carbon on piston heads. I've always used this up until recently as shell garages are becoming harder to find where I live, my nearest is about 20 miles away ! I've often wondered how much difference it makes using high...
Just got myself a Trophy which has the Mark fish springs and koni rear shocks. Have played around with the settings on the shocks and as recommended elsewhere on here have set the rears at 1 and a quarter off full soft and the fronts at 22 clicks. I do a lot of road miles and am finding the...
Handling been shot lately and checked the tyres, 1 was on 7mm and the other on 2mm! Long story but had a puncture on the other 7mm and have been running a spare for a few months.
Just got back from a local garage who fitted a new PS3 and did the allignment and filled the tyres with Nitrogen...
Anyone know or used a company for 1 day cover? Looking to get the T on the road this weekend to blow away the cobwebs before the tax runs out at the end of the month.
Found RAC and another one on google, anyone know of any others out there?
Hi guys, just after a bit of information regards the above.
Does anyone use these for there track days?
Are they a Renaultsport item?
If so where is the best place to purchase?
I know they can be found on Demon Tweeks but they look generic so not sure if this is the best option.
I have...
Popped to see a mate today who works in a garage. While I was there I got talking to a customer who was waiting for his car to be MoT tested. He noticed my car and commented on the twin exhausts and said that he neighbour had a Clio with exhausts like that.. he said it had been standing in...

Pick my car up from jamsport saturday after having ported and matched inlet, custom remap, whiteline rear arb, pagid front discs, ferodo ds2500 front pads, goodridge braided brake hoses all round and 5.1 brake fluid so will let you all know the results fingers crossed they will be good :lol:
I'm after anyone's experiences with fitting brake ducts in the Clio fog light holes. Does it make a worthwhile difference to brake cooling? Did you fit a collar on the front facing straight ahead to help catch the air or just ducting back from the holes? I imagine that fitting the ducts from a...
110 has done 38,769 but I've only done just over 2k since acquiring her in June 2010. I'm just curious as to how well used these cars are on average? Is your Trophy a daily driver or a weekend/summer toy?
Cheers! :)

The shell is a 2000 W road legal Ph1 shell with history, v5 etc. 72k (ish) miles, will have to check clocks. Cat C damaged years ago but kind of irrelevant now as stripped to a bare shell there is no damage.

For those of you who don't use cliosport, thought i'd post up my new race car for this season for you to have a look at. Picked it up at the weekend, ex 2006 TCR Onslow-cole Championship winning car. Driven it the grand total of about 20 yards so far, on and off the trailer and into the garage...
I'm thinking of selling my 3rd trophy as i've recently started having to commute to work and have since bought a diesel. As the trophy is just sitting on the drive, i thought it would be best to sell up.

Hi i have always said on all my cars i have owned if engine required major repair i.e. piston bent valve etc..
I would put uprated internals in and bolt a turbo on (if only it was that easy:-))
Just woundered wat peoples views are on turbo trophy?
(Just to add there is nothing wrong with the...
Right guys I'm considering swapping my wheels. My Trophy is a second car and if I'm honest it all ways will be.
The plan is to downsize to 15"Alloys, I only ever use the car in the dry so figured I could get away with a set of road legal track tyres, which would also cover the handful of...
