They may not be the fastest cars, neither the loudest nor the best sounding ones but these Clio Cup cars are incredibly entertaining to watch, literally punching each other on track during the proper racing weekends of the various national Cup championships.
I've never managed to record Renault's Cup race cars during test days because their sound was always covered by louder GT3 or TCRs, for example, but during last week's testing the track was quite empty so I wanted to try and record it, taking advantage of being also the new Cup car.
Based on the 5th generation of the Renault Clio (in particular the road-going R.S. Line version), it was unveiled in late 2019 and deliveries were set for the first quarter of 2020, but due to the pandemic situation they were postponed. An interesting aspect of the new Clio RS Cup is that the car in its basic set-up is intended for use in several competitions: from the track, both in the Renault single-make and in the other categories, to hillclimbing but also rally and rallycross. For this purpose, Renault has prepared a low-cost conversion kit which allows the same car to be transformed from track to rally or rallycross and vice versa in brief time.
The car is powered by a 1.3-liter TCe (Nissan HR13) turbocharged 4-cylinder engine which is able to produce 180 hp and 300 Nm of torque and linked to a Sadev ST82, 5-speed sequential gearbox.
