    Trophy Vs Canoe

    Well, after 3 years of dreaming I finally bought my own Canoe :D. I was a bit sceptical about putting a Canoe on the roof of the little Clio but it holds it very well, surprisingly. It does draw a lot of attention and I have to admit it does look pretty funny. The little Clio has a whole...

    Place to buy helmet near Bournemouth?

    Hi, I need a karting/trackday helmet but can't find anywhere nearby Bournemouth, or the South in general for that matter, that sells them. Reluctant to just buy one off the net before I've tried it on for obvious reasons. Anyone know of a place round here that sells them? Cheers

    Dilemma of which Renault sport, post your experiences

    Hi, I test drove a Megane 250 Cup and Clio Sport 200 back to back today and I can't decide which is better. The car will mainly be a daily driver with occasional trackday use.

    Trackday Tyres
