In this episode of project Clio 172 Cup I finally get the old girl on track and to a proper circuit too, Cadwell Park which is one I have wanted to do for some time!
Big thanks to the team at Track Obsession for organising another fantastic day 👌

That looks like a fantastic track to drive, I am jealous. Great driving too, you can see the clear improvement from lap to lap as you get used to the track. Also great camera placement in the car. Enjoyable vid 👍.

Great video and nice to see you having fun on track with the Cup! did you have a mic in the engine bay or was that just the sound in the cabin? it sounded awesome. Did you manage to clean the wheels up or is a refurb needed?

Thanks mate, proper enjoyed it and made all the work building the Cup well worth it although a few niggles to address when it’s next out on track! A little bit of audio magic, think it really improves the enjoyment of watching the videos (hopefully you all agree) but as you can hear from fly by’s in the past videos it’s not artificial, it does make that sound 😍 Wheels not looking so great even after the wheel cleaner, been advised to try a fall out remover wheel cleaner so will try that next 👍

Thanks, was getting properly into it then remembered I also needed to drive home so calmed back down in the afternoon 😅 some tuition would have certainly been beneficial but was really happy to just be blasting around

Nice, I had some tuition, when I did my track day at Cadwell in the 172Cup, suggested using just third, and fourth gears, and even when flat out, it doesn’t redline. You should be able to take Coppice flat out without braking in 4th and I was on Rainsports
@stoneautomotive
@stoneautomotive Жыл бұрын
Thanks Justin, agree tuition would of seen for much cleaner/faster laps but I still had a great time 😅 Coppice and the gooseneck were two corners I was struggling to find my comfort with the car in terms of entry speed but for my first time at Cadwell and on track in the Clio I was really happy with the day - good reason to go back for more practice 😬 The other thing to add is the RS2 intake makes peak BHP at the redline so feels wonderful screaming all the way there (stock Clio peak power is around 6,600rpm so no benefit in hanging the gears)

@@stoneautomotive can’t recommend the instruction enough. It was my first visit and outing also. After the 20 mins instruction I was flat in 4th into Coppice and Gooseneck, turning into Goose early and let the car wash across the track, before braking. It’s a hold on tight set of bends but epic when you don’t lift. Killed my rainsports by the end of the day. Hadn’t got round to changing in time what with other work car needed. Didn’t help snapping an injector night before whilst removing stubborn oil filter, meaning dash to ECP just before they closed for a replacement. Conclusions after my first track day where I needed better tyres, gear shifter as current is in precise, smaller steering wheel and snugger seats. Best fun in a car for ages.

Another solid video, nice one. Looks like a great track too. Danny DC2s done a lot of videos there too if you're not familiar. What's going on with the sun strip out of interest?
@stoneautomotive
@stoneautomotive Жыл бұрын
Thanks Duncan & glad you enjoyed 😎 Yea watch Danny DC2, can peddle a car especially round Cadwell! The sun strip was painted internally with plasti-dip around 3 years ago as I simply masked the screen internally than sparayed away, the idea was that if I got the height wrong I could easy scrap away until I was happy, sadly it’s started to go odd so time for a proper piece of vinyl to go on next
