History Renaultsport Clio

2000 - New Renaultsport Clio with optional Aim Drack Gold data logger and lap time display. The logger was a Drack Gold unit, 8 analog, 2 speed channels running through a XAP interface box. The car used the standard rear ABS sensors to generate wheelspeed. All cars had the logger and interface box mounted on the front bulkhead.

2001 - New Aim EV03 system introduced. 4 analog, 2 speed channels, USB download, lap time display. The XAP interface was no longer used. Logger ( coloured black ) was mounted on the transmission tunnel.

2004- Larger rear hubs were introduced with larger wheel bearings. The same ABS sensor rings were used to generate wheelspeed but required a new spacer to be fitted between the hub and ABS ring. These require careful fitting as the hub has a slight inverse taper on it.

2007 - New model Clio racer introduced with Magneti Marelli ECU, data logger and dash.
