Miss225 Posted 16, October 2008 Report Share Posted 16, October 2008 Hi All, Just wanted to say thanks to all the other RS drivers I've seen on the roads or who have left cards on the car. You certainly are a friendly bunch and I do love to get a wave from a fellow Renault driver. Cheers again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miss225 Posted 7, November 2008 Author Report Share Posted 7, November 2008 Hi Guys, Thanks for the welcome, and promises of good behaviour No Need I'm a big girl now! As for your questions - Alas I cannot tell you who has carded me except that it occurred at the Motorshow in Sydney. I did spy a nice yellow R26 nearby though... And I joined the forum thanks to Brendan and Dom who I met at a skidpan day earlier in the year. The car - Based in Inner West of Sydney, Alpine Blue 5dr 225 - OMG do I love my car!! Why did I buy it - I like big butts and I cannot lie... Seriously have always loved the look of the meggy's and then decided I wanted a turbo, with rugrats on the cards needed 5drs which narrowed it down to the Mazd 3MPS and the Megane. A test drive prooved the difference and I haven't looked back. Best track time to date - 1:17:66 at Wakefield. You'll like this, I beat a Monaro in the time-attack round with that inspired run by me the newbie... If you have read this far can you tell me do you guys organise circuit days?? Hope that answers your questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matteo Posted 8, November 2008 Report Share Posted 8, November 2008 Hi Miss225, to reply to your post above, the OZRS national meeting was on just last week... (right?) and they did go to Wakefield Park for a group track day. viewtopic.php?f=10&t=10325 I think Black R26s are better though Kind regards, Matteo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(or have i confused you with someone else ).....you were very impressive at the motorkhana, and even more impressive was i think you said the car was only a week old back then! Kudos! And a nice time around Wakey too As for track days, well i think we'll be trying to organise a few more after everyone had a taste for and found out how fun it was at the nationals last week! ............But if you keep your eyes peeled in the socials or motorsport activites sections you will see when we have something on Cheers, Brendan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puncher Posted 8, November 2008 Report Share Posted 8, November 2008 Miss225 Glad to see your tracking your car and enjoying it. I have a question for you though that a few of us might like some feed back on. Why did you buy the Megane over the MPS Mazda ? What were the differences from your point of view ? Any feedback would be much appreciated Cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom Posted 8, November 2008 Report Share Posted 8, November 2008 Hey Miss225 ... Welcome ... Glad you made it here. Great too see your having fun in the Megane. Hope to see you again at next years traning day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkie86 Posted 9, November 2008 Report Share Posted 9, November 2008 Well done on the Wakey time - very nice That could well have been rob 240's Meggy (my dad) as he said he spotted 2 Meggy's at the show & carded one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss225 Posted 11, November 2008 Author Report Share Posted 11, November 2008 Glad to see your tracking your car and enjoying it. I have a question for you though that a few of us might like some feed back on. Why did you buy the Megane over the MPS Mazda ? What were the differences from your point of view ? Any feedback would be much appreciated Steve, I have to state I have no where near the knowledge of cars that you guys likely have..however from my novice point of view the MPS had a shocking amount of torque steer. At around 3000 the car started to shoot of to the left - not nice! And hence that and the fact that I like the uniqueness of the Meggy more it was the way I went. Interestingly my father-in-law has just got the latest series of the MPS and swears there is no trace of the torque steer now...

puncher Posted 11, November 2008 Report Share Posted 11, November 2008 Miss 225. It doesn't matter that your a novice or whatever. Your opinions are respected just the same. Especially when your put a Renault first Cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
