R26 track car new member

Discussion in 'New to the Club? Why not introduce yourself?' started by Big-Baz, Oct 20, 2015.

  1. Hi people, decided to join the megane scene for track fun & I love it. Think I may have purchased off a previous/current member on here. I bought the car after I sold my GTR R35 & for the buzz of driving I prefer the megane . Anyway, here's a few pics.

  5. Welcome mate - car looks an animal

    It must been slow compared to the GTR! Welcome (I must admit the R26 is better but I'm biased)
     
  8. Aye that's had some track use all ready, went well
     
  9. i have the Bimarco Grip seats but I'm gonna take them out as I had them in my Clio at the ring last year & got banned because of the seat head restraints
     
  10. yeah I've done Oulton park & Donnington a few times, first time I've drove a car on slicks & loved it
     
  11. Don't get me wrong, the GTR was an animal but I sort of fell out of love with it, didn't feel any connection to the car & the speeds you would be hitting corners at were bum twitching rather than enjoyable , so I sold it & bought a C63 & this megane which I buzz off every time I drive it
     
  12. Nice I race mine in a slick tyre class.. What ones you using?
     
  13. Didn't realise you were so local Big-Baz, you'll have to tag along to some days with me and Steve 1
     
  14. Sound mate, will do. Where abouts are you two then?
     
  15. I'm from Swadlincote/Burton on Trent, couple of junctions up the M42 from yourself and Steves from Nottingham.

    We do trackdays together from time to time, last one being Mallory Park before that Oulton RS day and a few Cadwell evening sessions.

    I'm at Oulton on the 10th of November with Opentrack
     
  16. Yeah definatly keep me involved mate, I can't make the 10th but 100% I'll jump on with you lads.
     
  17. Yeah we have a good crack, Steves got a clio track car as well as his R and another lad called Dean comes along who's also a top lad
     
  18. Sounds good, I've just bought some big brake discs & pajid RS29 pads so I want to test them out.
     
  19. I had a Clio aswell, full track car on ITBs but it just wasn't fast enough on the straights, I've still got all the forged internals for it as I was going to turbo it but I seen the megane for sale & bought that. I took them both to the Nurburgring in May & got kicked off in both as the seats were banned in the Clio & my GTR was 137db haha.
