Rolling Road?

Right after talking to a couple of people thought I would pop up a thread.

Is anyone interested?

I can sort out a day with Circuit Motors at Castle Combe.
Paul normally does 2/3 runs and the cost is normally £40, if we have enough cars.

If people put their name down in here I will sort something out.

Poll added

I'd probably be interested, depending on the date

Yeah that would be the difficult bit to sort out I think.
I know Adam is interested, and possibly Stu once the meatsword is working.

And I want to see what power the cams have given the saxo

Yeah Meatsword will have a few runs

oil, tx fluid, coolant....

Coolant is the discos issue atm not meatswords lol

Oh yeah, apparently the Discos have a habbit of blowing up expansion tanks... great!

id be up for it, mine hasnt been on the rollers since it was mapped so would be nice to see what figures she gets on different rollers.

Yeah, Paul there is pretty good. His rollers are very accurate too. unlike some places I have been.

I would be up for this, should have my exhaust leak sorted soon. So will be interested to see if that helps smooth my torque curve.

Would be fun to see if mine still has 60bhp...

but i will probs only get it to 55

lol love that quote like every other rollers in the country lol


Might be up for it close enough to be interested

Well he doesnt ask people what they think their car should be hitting.
He has always seemed very knowledgeable aswell.
Russ in his clio has hit pretty much exactly the same figure as RS Tuning have mapped his car to here.

Obviously he isnt going to be spot on everytime but never heard a bad word about him.

has he ever had a smart?????

No idea, dont think he would be impressed though

Nice one rich ill put my name down for sure!

1. Rich - Saxo vts
2. Adam - MR2 Turbo

rich you are a cheeky devil....but yes that is true i doubt he would be impressed lol

Would it have enough power to get on the rollers?

I'll continue the list.

1. Rich - Saxo vts
2. Adam - MR2 Turbo
3. Jimmy - Bora 1.8T

if we get a few dates I'll stick a poll up

yes of course it would....you kids are so funny lol
it'd probably go faster than on a real road tbh

I'll have a word with Paul and then we can arrange dates that people can make and decide from that.

Yah i'm in...

1. Rich - Saxo vts
2. Adam - MR2 Turbo
3. Jimmy - Bora 1.8T
4. Norledge - Disco
5. Sez - MX errr i mean Meatsword...

So stu the meatsword will be seen before Llandow....

Right any Saturday from the 30th October is free at the moment.
Thats the best one for me as I will still have my insurance, and wont need to get day insurance.

I'll add a poll to the thread.

Yup i'm in for that, Meatsword and the truck will run

isn't 6th november rockingham aswell?

Yeah he has got both rollers working now, so 4x4s can run.
He is just calibrating it to make sure its working the same as the front ones.

The sooner we can let him know the better.

I just put all dates down, if any clash then meh!

30th is good with me. Will finally get to meet some of you B4T people!

i'll come if i can get cash for a gearbox rebuild...

What is it with French cars and gearboxes, oh wait and electrics....

May be interested if I can get Dave to come along, would be good to see what power compared to the other cars mine is doing and if the curve could be improved. Also will be forced to find out where the redline actually is instead of shifting because everything starts vibrating too much!

Would mean gettin a train home from uni to just collect my car though, may be too much effort and money.

I'll come along for the day, saving all my moneys though for some winter project goodness.

Industrial sized.

funny fucker

Haha don't worry, I'll be joining you in the machine soon.

soon? your sat right here next to me, stu, and chris in the mincers VIP lounge

At least there is free champagne,

If people could let me know by Monday if they are definately coming and going on the rollers.

Those just coming to watch just turn up.
I'll book the 30th if people dont say otherwise, on Monday.

Just realised I hadn't replied to this, I won't be able to make it on the 30th

Not the 6th Nov either lol thats my trackday at rockingham!

So do people want to hold of or set a date?

I do want to come, I think I'll make the effort to come down from uni, and convince Dave to come along too!

Do it! More people the better it will be.

13th of November is good for me, how about for other people (not been following the thread)?

Looks like I'll need to get a days insurance lol

Oh, does your insurance run out before then?
