Dorset Rolling Road Day...
 

Hello all,

Been meaning to do this for a while, think there's only a few on here that remember the last one at Eclipse in Poole all those years back ;)

Given there's no decent RR's in Dorset, im proposing to organise a Rolling Road day at WRC Technologies (nr Silverstone) which isnt far, and a good run out. Only other option is PE, but a bit further. WRC appear to have a brand new RR, and looks like a good one.

Ron - might need a hand as you know more peeps than I do ;) Can also include Hants people if numbers allow.

I havent contacted WRC as yet but id like to gauge some interest. Would likely to be a Saturday and maybe in about 3-4 weeks time on a Saturday. (allows me time to stuff in some more ponies :D)

Add your name if you're interested and ill get some idea on price.

Any Q's let me know.

********* Sat 23rd April **************

Info above. Hopefully nobody is pushing 2400 bhp :D :D

Sure.. I will tag along. Providing it's not as f ucking cold as the last one I went to. I spent the day wrapped in a blanket but still rolled home in a respectable 3rd place out of the group :D

I would be interested to see if and what I have lost over the period of 12 months.

Count me in (although I am souling it 4-7 March up North)

count me in deffo, as long as you don't mind the EVO whooping your sad scooby asses :)


Mark, you may find that the RR facility doesn't start until early April, give me time to get that I/C hard pipe kit and 3" downpipe fitted ;) MORE POWER IGOR

Sorry Mark, only just seen this.... i'll see what I can muster up!!

SG - Colder the better, more power :D

Glen - Luckily your weight won't be a hinderance in this encounter :D :D ;) Will check on the opening dates.

Ron - Good stuff.

Right,

Got the details :)

Im proposing either Sat 23rd April as thats the first slot they have.

We need a minimum of 12 cars to do it, but they can take up to 40 cars in one day - starting at 9am and ending at 5pm

Boost and AFR are monitored which is a useful diagnostic as well as checking the health while on the rollers. The dyno cell has 10 cooling fans including extraction, so the intercooler will be kept happy.

Each car will have 3-4 runs to verify the data, and a full print out will be given.

Prices as follows:
12 cars + £40
30 cars + £35
30 cars + £30

Please let me know ASAP and add your name to the list, and once we get 12 I will book it:

I'm interested in another RR day, have you considered Interpro in Bristol? Bit closer and better roads.

Just a thought

Mike :)

Hi Mike,

Heard some none too good stuff about them (probably just SN rumour mill ;)), and want to stick with WRC Technologies as the spec of their road and overall setup is very professional.

Go on, you know you want to :D

MB

Mark, i won't be able to come along, i'll be in the states! but i'll still try to muster the troops!!

That sounds like a challenge... :D:D:D

Think that EVO needs firmly putting in its place :D

I'm still waiting for my rolling road print out from Eclipse, do you think it might have got lost in the post :rolleyes:

Just read about the WRC rolling road :D sounds like the operator is Chris who used to do all the rolling road days at G Force so he should know his stuff and also how to operate a rolling road.

I might be able to make this so put me down as a possible but can someone remind me at the start of April because I'm getting married at the start of March and I'm away on honeymoon for 3 weeks so i'm bound to forget.

You were one of the many unluck ones Colin :) I sure you have much more bhp now though ;)

MB

Count me in, sounds good. :)

I'm going to Vegas in April, but I think it's from the 19th, I'll ask me Julie when she gets back from prowling the streets. :D

mm i would love to do this sounds cool, how far past silverstone is it?

have eclipse got a web site, if so whats the addy?

Forget Eclipse Andy, they went belly up years back now.... WRC is AT Silverstone!!

Gooner.... looks like we'll be in Vegas at the same time mate..... might see ya there!!!!

They shut down a long time ago im afraid, shame as they had a very good RR.

WRC is just before Silverstone on the A43. Route is A31 - M27 - M3 - M40 - A43 but will put up some directions soon. Should be an hour and a half at a push :D

Feck..! I'm in Vegas on the 17th :(

When you going Ronaldo?

i know where silverstone is been there to see f1 and drive past at least 2 times a year on my way to york

Going on the 7th April, into Denver, then driving up Pikes Peak, and all over the place, will be in Vegas on the 20/21/22nd, to do the stratosphere among other things..... then drive to a swap meet in Pomona, then up to San Francisco, the fly home on the 30th, just in time for the next months meet......

May equally be the 23rd, as one of the EVO contingent cant make it ;)

MB

Lol, I'm only there for 3 nights, but should be there on 20th still... small world :)

Might see ya there then Mate!!!!! Small world indeed!!

Please count me in :)
