Welcome to onboard footage from our recent track day at Brands Hatch and the first track outing for our newly bought not built Clio 172. The plan to replace the old Clio 197 with a car of similar pace didn’t quite go to plan, oops! Although evenly matched in the corners, it was the 172’s superior straight line speed which proved too much for the Peugeot 306 GTi6 to handle. Back to the drawing board!
