York vids!!

[Purple]

Not wanting to start a 16v versus 172 fighting talk here (OK, maybe a little). So, how does clean16's car stack up against other highly-modded N/A 172/182s on cliosport?

Also, from the vids, why don't the cars at York pre-rev the engines at start lines?

[clean16v]

what highly modded 172'/182's? Its the most powerful, and fastest N/A clio fullstop, bar the V6, and that only has more power.
The fastest time for a 172/182 is 13.9 down the strip, the fastest for a MK1 is the mythical 13.8 clio on T/B's

Some quality vids there.

What you going to do for more power now Martin?

Thought there was also a TBody 172, or maybe it was a turbo job - have to re-read again.

Anyway, 13.7s in hot weather is really good. Maybe some dry ice in July? That's a WRX trick they use here (Singapore), plonking a bag onto the intercooler. Though no sure where to put it in a Clio.

Didnt look that much faster than Martins car. £££££ gets you a 1/4 of a car length.

Couple of points oh novice of 1/4 miling. Firstly, 1/4 of a car is a lifetime down the strip. Secondly, if you compare both the runs with martin you will notice his awesome start start in the second vid, and therefore my car needed to reel in and pass it, in the first video, where my start was as good, i'm out of the picture by the end of second

Mehdi, you dont know what your talking about, Rob can 1/4 mile your car quicker than you can... lol
