Hows the car run with the new engine parts ...any quicker?
marangoni semi slick track tyres. Quite a sticky tyre but not the best tread design to dispose of water.

It was a deal I got for tyres and alloys off someone on the cliosport forum otherwise I would have went for R888 the tyre of choice plus they have about 2-3 track days left in them. I ran last month on 16's and road tyres and had much more grip.

Upgrade wise it was hard to tell due to not being able to give it as much as I would have liked to. I defo think there is a smother delivery and had another 182 chase me and felt as if I was pulling on the straights.

Hopefully this weekend it'll be all poly bushed and also uprated engine mounts getting fitted. With that and better conditions should start seeing a difference.
