    Couldn't take my eyes off the footwork, especially the Pug's. Amazing. I wish I could drive like that. I feel like my 197 doesn't get used properly.

    In my opinion the 306's chassis is one of the best of its time. The clio seems to handle a bit like a 205 with massive oversteer. Great driving to both, with regards to the 306's driver. Cheers from France :)

    This was awesome to watch, and it makes me miss my old 306 even more. I bought it to race on the ring, but it was too worn out and had to go. Sadly in Denmark they are so rare, and only one is currently for sale - yes one as in 1! Mine was a ph1, and I want one of those again! RIGHT NOW lol

    Does it make sense to change 306gti to Clio rs? Is the increase in power large given the difference in value?

    • @CamberandCombustion
      @CamberandCombustion  6 лет назад +1

      Mr. Vtec it depends what you want from the car. There isn’t much difference in the way of straight line performance. The difference is in the way that the cars handle, the 306 is more loose and sensitive to lift off oversteer whereas the Clio feels more planted to the road but is still adjustable with use of the throttle.

    • @JN-qj9gf
      @JN-qj9gf 6 лет назад +1

      I went from a GTi-6 to a 3 200 RS - for pure fun there's not much in it. Clio has ridiculous grip and brakes (more track car out of the box) and the GTi-6 has this Jekyll and Hyde transformation from refined to lift-off oversteering lout (lots of character).
      200 was a bit quicker in a straight line but that's not what these cars are about.
      My GTi-6 was falling to bits though (aside from drivetrain) - and both cars are very rare where I live. Clio is newer, safer and more reliable, plus those hardcore seats, widebody, brakes and suspension are hard to deny.

    The Clio has to be defect, the driver of it not pushing or that 306 is tuned to at least 200 hp. Otherwise it's not explainable that the Pug can keep up like this.

    • @CamberandCombustion
      @CamberandCombustion  5 лет назад +1

      DaWhatEva DaWhatEva we can confirm both drivers were pushing and both engines are standard in this video - see video description for specs. On paper the 306 is only 30bhp down and 197s are known for not making full power out of the factory. The 306 is also lighter.

      @DaWhatEva 5 лет назад

      @@CamberandCombustion I used to own a 306 (just an XSi) myself and now own a Clio 200. So, I know a bit about these cars. I really doubt you can compensate 30hp and the missing revs by at best 150 kg in weight difference. There's a reason why you see so many 197/200 and only very few 306 around there and that while the 306 would surely be the cheaper option.
