RS246.com Track Day - Donington Park GP - Thu 22 Sept 2016

Post by PhilT » Sat May 07, 2016 10:30 am

Donington Park GP with Mike Wilds

Over the years, a few of us have strayed from Audi R/S/RS ownership but have remained in touch due to a passion for track days (and racing for some of the more committed individuals). Would be great for others to attend and we have selected a number of Circuit Days events this year that we will be attending. Circuit Days are excellent, well organised and also offer RS246 members a discount :)

Paul (W8PMC) and I have bought a Renault Clio 172 Cup as our track toy (Sorry but anything VAG was outside our budget).

More info regarding this track day is available on http://circuit-days.co.uk/. For bookings, simply email info@circuit-days.co.uk and mention RS246 for a discount :)

See you there!!

Great day at Donington yesterday with Circuit Days. Great to meet you Lee and also good to see you pushing hard round track :)

We got some brake hoses from Goodridge for the Clio and whilst I can't say that they made a night and day difference, they have helped annihilate the next weak point; pads and discs. Now we've tested them, I'll post up some info in this thread viewtopic.php?t=121442

Nice meeting you guys as well - shame I had to abort after my 100+ mph trip off the circuit.

I am minus a gopro and an undertray but thats about it from what I can see at the moment - the drive home was embarrassing with all the squalling coming from the brakes - next thing to do is remove all the brake shields, check geometry and a full 4 wheel alignment!

At least you're not having to replace body panels. Kudos to you for pushing hard :)
