Changes to Graham Hill bend have been approved, I'll knock a photo up of what is planned in a mo.
Like this...
I'm not sure I like the look of that. It looks like a mirror image of Sear's at Snetterton
Watching people run wide at Graham Hill bend has always been great fun at Brands. I remember way, way back seeing a truck get a tap there, and end up rolling into the pit area, and onto the back of a breakdown truck
It will certainly be interesting when the truck races are on...Originally Posted by The new Bill J

Txt me when you have something in mind at Brands, evening or full day. Really wanna stretch the Clios legs out on track now... And have a nosey round the 5Been on the net this morning looking at something like that Ric... will keep you updated once I have sorted something out.
If your about this wknd you can take me for a spin in that
Matt brought the 5 back yesterday, sounds awesome, will take abit of getting used to.
Feels smoother 0-60 than before but faster 30-80+... so not complaining
Need to get used to sitting so low down in the buckets, but am very happy with the car, am going to test out a PMT incar cam later, will upload video if it works ok
Torques.....
I like the way this thing pulls especially as its on carbs..... 5th gear, about 35mph and whack your foot down....no spluttering, just pulls till you run out of road.
Might try one of my tdc leads on it next time I see you, and possibly the other ecu as they have both been 'played with' I think it runs out of puff at 7000+ rpm.
Shoppers, test drive it to Essex
now theres a planShoppers, test drive it to Essex
Well after a cheeky meet up with the RTOC Sanglairs guys at Tesco the other week I decided to keep the 5....
At the meet i noticed how dirty my car was... hadnt been washed for a year, so today I got a few hours free and gave it a quick clean and a very quick polish....
Still got to sort out the front front bumber and look at repainting/touch up the front end...
Good to hear mateIt's a cracking conversion - You just need to drive/trackday it more
Looks nice straight and shiny
Good to hear mate
It's very straight, shiny in the shiny bits... Front end needs attention and roof needs a good MOP.
A cracking conversion that will get use from now on
Always fancied a red 5, rolling on Azev's
You just want to be like your hero - Weeeeelllll, ya know...Always fancied a red 5, rolling on Azev's

Good to hear mate

This car is just great. I love the idea of being able to cane it around a track all day long reliably.
Pleased you're keeping it
All this talk of keeping......... Just when I've found a buyer for u
nailed my 5 several times all day round track reliably
Glad to hear your keeping it. As discussed give me a shout if it's for sale in the future and or see how time is looking for the other discussion

1st person to give me £1100 takes this away....
Taxed til November, mot runs out in Sept... (Will pass again), its currently at matt@codered to sort out a running issue (runs sweet as a now - just needed idle bike carb idle adjustment and battery was connecting with the bodywork - all sorted)...
Matt drove it back from Essex at good motorway speeds and didn't miss a beat and hardly used any fuel
Must--resist--temptation--to--have--this--car...!!!
You know the car, you have driven it more than me... You should have it.../Must--resist--temptation--to--have--this--car...!!!

It's a good job Jesus let you down with the sale as this means I get to play with it some more.

Chris at least you get to keep what was in the boot , no matter what{only he knows..}
ps.. have you had a chance to collect that carbon object...
When that devil strut brace turns up at Chris's place jeebs, we might think about sticking it on the red 16v, might make it more saleable eh?
if that's the case.... ill send you the k tec one....
Nah.....probably worth sticking to the deal with the devil brace I reckon.
I've got a mate who's desperate for a clio 16v after watching the track action at N/D. Now, like a bell, he doesn't have any love for a 5 but I'm trying to make him realise how much of a bargain this is.
What's it like on the road Chris? Has it proved reliable thus far?
Ross
Part x for a suzuki swift and cash this way?
No thanks, got enough cars ATM
Well on Monday just gone the car was collected, delivered on Tuesday to the new owner (is a member on here, will let them announce it on here if they wish to do so).
So no Renault 5's ATM, I actually no longer own a Renault ATM....
Wha happened to the silver one mate?
Sold onto Rob in Ashford
Wonder if it comes back to you again...
