Enjoy all, I am still bitter I moved family holiday week and this years ND moved also causing clash :(

Arrived in Anglesey at 1.30 today so def not even close to pop out for a few cheeky hours lol
 
sorry andy been a bit of a crazy few months for me with work and getting a place in the sun. so with all this only just getting the car right will have to miss this year so everyone have fun and have a good one.
 
What a weekend ( again ! )

What a group of people to spend the weekend with.

A heartfelt thanks to everyone that came , everyone I met , and everyone I spoke to.

Loved it.

Weekend of the year for me.
 
Great day good to catch up with everybody(y)

Kangoo performed great, brakes are a little bit worse for wear but apart from that no issues. Me and @Sheryl_O were driving it all afternoon flat to the boards and having a riot clipping the kerb at "the ump" which pops it on 2 wheels every time =D

Thanks to

@Kris M for a few hot laps in the cup car, working great best its ever run

@Ricardo for pax and a drive of the 220 Trophy, epic car totally sold on the edc setup

@Chris Smith for a drive of the Ph1 - Best ph1 i have ever seen/driven

@andybond for the t-shirt=D

& everybody else for the banter/craic. Roll on the next one
 
A fantastic weekend! Great to see everyone and many good times had!

Can honestly say it’s the most I’ve ever driven one of my cars around a track in one day - without having mechanical failure!! The old clickorus did me proud and by the end of the day I felt I got to know it a lot better and was hustling it around the track.

A weekend of outstanding phase 1’s for me:
  • Fantastic to see the beautiful Phase 1 GTT of @Chris Smith in the flesh. It’s better than I had imagined. 😍
  • Think @DaveL485’s Clio V6 Phase 1 also looked beautiful and a real credit to him! 👍
Also great to see the next Generation of Old school Renault head with Gilly and Son of Gill! 👍
 
I had just come in, checked fluids and dropped a good few pounds in the rear tyres to try and get more grip.

WATCH THIS !



Easy done sir and you learn from it :) - do you heal & toe? Downshift to 2nd looks to have given you the problem but found matching revs more on downshift help and a great car to develope the skill

If all else fails dip the clutch, brake and enjoy the ride ;)

Damn watching your clips makes me want to get out again!!!

I have been H+T as much as I can , however the throttle pedal is a fraction too high when really braking so I cant rotate my foot to do so.
 
Brilliant weekend away, good to see all the usual suspects again and have a few beers👌

At least the bad weather stayed away on the main event day and held off this morning to pull down the tent. The weather conditions on the drive home was pretty shocking but surprised how well the Clio felt on the ADO8Rs in almost standing water sometimes.

As for the trackday at Blyton in the Clio 220, next level! Absolutely on point, much better than the old 200. Add in the impressive 4 pots, those Yokohama tyres, progressive springs on the H&R coilovers. They more than did their job dealing with the 250hp and 260 torque. The seamless shifts with the EDC and the chassis really is something to behold.
 
Great pics but the 2nd one is a sign ;) ;) it's like the golf just knows it is better to have its heart in the exige and accept it for the best lol

2 cars I found perfect for H&T pratice clio 172 cup and Vx220, never driven an sc exige / elise on track or remember if pedal layout different. Some guys have tweaked pedal layout so if not right just change to suit you ;)
