its basically a standard clio cup 172 with upgraded brakes and suspension, the previous owner stripped out the interior back to bare bones and put in a pair or sparco bucket race seats with 3 point harnesses, ive added a part roll cage and give it a good service and changed the disks and pads, thats all for now, but next on the list is a set of Gaz Gaz coil over springs and dampers plus a decat kit and ecu remap.

to be fair it handles really good already, but i just like to tinker with things till it feels right to me.

I was averaging about 2mins 20 secs per lap so ive set my bench mark for the car as it is now, considering ive never been on the track before i was going ok.

trouble is when you go to these days there is always people with money to burn, there was a guy there in a nissan GTR he went on track at the same time as me in the afternoon but only did 2 laps he cooked his brakes by driving like a muppet LOL spent the rest of the afternoon looking at it like it was going to fix itself LOL Discovery TD5 commercial (gone)

Sounds like a good little track toy! I had some of the tuition at Oulton which helped no end, helped me get the most out the car and run the right lines.

I know what you mean about the rich crowd, last time I was at Anglesey there was a rich boy in a modified Merc CLS55 AMG, he managed 20 laps and ruined a set of rear tyres as well as having his rear brakes smoking.
