hi there

there is an rolling road day organised by the mlr for the 9th of feb but we are 3 spaces short. anyone interested?! price if the rolling road is 30pounds and it is a morning session only 9-12:30.


also we are booking glenrothes airfield for 2 hours, you can pretty much do what ever you want with your car there is a good quility strip for top speed runs and also there should be a little area suitable for some track runs. price for the air field is a 1o pounds

 

Do you have to come to both or can you just go to one or the other? I could be interested in the airfield day

 

Saxo Boy,

Scared of getting your *** whoooped on the rollers

The rolling road is an ideal health check for the car. Get a chance to see exactly what your Scooby is putting out with your mods and get to check your boost curve as well.

 

.....and it's going to be a lot of fun!!!

 

you don't have to do them both.

so are you in saxo boy?

 

hi

i am interested but where is the rolling
road at ?
if its at star am up for it!!

colin

 

Not 100% sure what I'm doing that weekend but I'll put my name down provisionally for airfield action.

RR don't interest me to be honest as they seem to return such a mixed bag of results My car pulls and sounds well so from that it should be working fine. I expect it would be around the 270bhp mark but whether its 250 or 300bhp I don't care as long as it doesn't get beaten

 

saxo boy

what mods u done to yer scooby?

 

Good stuff Sam.
Will be at Air Field with my scooby
Dave's at Knockhill that weekend but will see if i can change his mind (do'nt think so)
Looking forward to it.

 

colin the rolling road is at star performance. so i have added you to the list.

grant good stuff, we need more poeple for the air strip though. it has been arranged by jim so i am not sure what will he do if we can;t get the numbers.

so far there is only 5-6 people and we need 15 to make it cheap as in a 10£ each.

sam

 

May come along for a butchers and poss. airfield if I can get different wheels and tyres for the day.

 

Hi Dr Sam

Put me down for the airfield.

hi Sam

stick me down for the airfield,car might be in bits but will give my place to either JB or AndyF,as I know they are both busy tonight and may miss out if places go too quick.

 

Sam, I might be interested in the RR can u stick my name in provisionally.

 

A month or so too eary for me, can't see the RX making much at the rolers with no engine

 

hi

might be up for the strip!!!!
have to c...

 

Sam,

I up for the RR with the Westy and maybe the Sti7 c/w PPP too.

Will play with the Westy on what ever else is going on; Won't we Rob

Jools

 

Can you put me down for both?? I'll need to confirm this weekend if poss as it's MOT time on Saturday

Need to make sure it doesn't cost me a couple of limbs

Cheers.

 

**** sake same u says to me not to advertise it here fecking scoobys will be their swarming theirs so many of them

 

is that a bad thing?
loads of scoobys!!!!!!!

 

Are there any corners on the airfield?

 

Every 500 mtrs I hope or else I'll run out of gears !!!

Sam - I've noted my interest in both on the MLR forum

 

yeah i saw it andy it will be cool

 

Coco....put it this way it beat your car And then you car got a big turbo and better intercooler

Its got a fully scoobysport decat, Tek2.5, dawes and an STI V intercooler. Still got the ickle turbo

 

Saxo,

would you not be interested to see how your cars figures compare to coco's.his might have say 30bhp more at high revs but at the airfield side by side the difference might be much smaller.

IMO rolling road days are only any use to compare similar geared cars with each other,on the same day with same operator.the figures I prefer are the power at wheels and torque as I find them more accurate and consistent.

they are also a good way of checking your car is okay,you have a rough idea what it should be,so if you get much less you can try and find out why,how do you think coco's car was found to have a holed intercooler.

 

I agree T-uk,

My car was run on Star's rollers quite a while back and I'm running her again on the 9th to check she is OK. No mods have been done to the engine since the last time.

For info, when Moses put his car on the rollers he found that the boost curve and rise time was a bit strange. It "felt" fine on the open road but with further investigation he found his actuator was leaking in three places!

 

yeah u still remember that brian it was weird it was shooting up the boost late same as myself i can *** late too without extra strength johnnies

 

and Moses is already taking advantage of the fact that Sasim probably hasn't unpacked his pc yet

AJ

 

Hairy muff but banksybaby had his laptop checking out the car recently so I'm confident its ok

Looking forward to the airfield action

 

jools and rob D
