    🏁 Testimonial Tuesday – Renault Clio RS 197/200 | CG Motorsport Stage 3 Clutch Review

    This week’s Testimonial Tuesday comes from @mk3_clio_rs200t, the proud owner of a Renault Clio MK3 F4R832 2.0 16V Sport (2008–2014) - a proper hot hatch that’s known for its razor-sharp handling and track-ready performance.

    Although the car wasn’t quite ready in time for Clio Fest this year (despite having everything booked and planned), that hasn’t stopped him from preparing for a packed 2026 season. Next year, the Clio will be hitting multiple open track days at Knockhill alongside plenty of fast-road runs to fine-tune the setup and put the new clutch through its paces.

    🔧 The Setup

    The car is fitted with our CG Motorsport Stage 3 Performance Clutch Kit, designed specifically for drivers who demand a stronger, sharper clutch for track and fast road use.

    • High torque capacity – ideal for modified and performance-tuned engines
    • Upgraded drive plate with ceramic paddle design for improved bite and heat resistance
    • Lightweight flywheel options for faster response and reduced rotational mass
    • Precise engagement suitable for both daily use and aggressive track shifts

    This setup is a great fit for the Renault Clio RS 197/200, offering a perfect balance between drivability and serious performance capability - exactly what you need for a car that sees both the road and the circuit.

    💬 Customer Feedback

    “Absolutely phenomenal — exactly what I was after for fast road and track use.”

    That’s what we love to hear! The Stage 3 clutch has been tried, tested, and proven by countless enthusiasts pushing their cars to the limit — and this Clio RS is no exception.

    With future plans for even more upgrades and regular Knockhill sessions, this build is a great showcase of what our clutches are built for: durability, control, and confidence under pressure.
