SMACS rolling road @ Prosport 18th Feb
 

As above, and discussed as part of our charity events this year. To get us started, we're having a rolling road at PROSPORT in Stockport. The cost will be £40 for a run, with £5 to charity.
The competition will be to see who can get closest to the overall figure for all the runners on the day. So if 10 cars run, you have to guess the total bhp for all 10 cars, closest to the true figure gets to donate the money raised to a charity of thier choice.
I will discuss start times with Pete nearer the time, BUT, EVERYONE IS EXPECTED TO BE THERE FOR THE DURATION OF THE EVENT. WE DO NOT WANT PEOPLE TURNING UP FOR A RUN MID-MORNING, THEN DRIVING OFF AGAIN. This is not entering into the spirit of the occasion.
Prosport will provide a buffet mid-morning for refreshment :)

Get your names down below:

Oh yes indeedee!!!!


And a buffet as well - well done Chris, i cant possibly do without grub for more than a coupel of hours - its me blood sugar level y'see:D


Put me down

2/The Chief

Saturdays are a ******* for me, as I work Friday and Saturday night.
Tell you what, dont put me down, but I will possibly turn up in the morning to give my £5 for charity, watch a few runs and then bugger off to bed.
Sorry I cant be a part of the whole day !

Assuming I was invited of course :)

edit: Find out what time first run would be.. might be able to do it..

I thought of you when pete mentioned the buffet chief :)
pimmo2000, I know what you mean about working nights m8, as I've had to get a work collegue to cover me for 6 hours on the saturday, and I get to pay him back on a sunday night :(
I'll put you down for the first in line to run, I'll be at prosport for 8am in the morning, but the event will be starting around 9. An exception can be made for our night workers :)

Hey!!! they have a name for that - fattist!!! and her is me thinking you were all politically correct:)

I got a quote from Rich at Powerstation this morning - pity i could not get my mods done before then but my brakes and springs come before engine tuning

my cars standard but you need a RR to start with.. gives you something to work with :)

Can't see any problem with arriving 9am.. will feel like a **** leaving soon after like, but cant be helped. Need to be home asap, but see how brave I am on the day.. probably be just me too, cant see any *******s getting up that early to join me

Cheers for letting me join in by the way

Be good to get you on the rollers pimmo, hopefully make up for your fruitless trek to our meet the other week, and to say hello :)
Chief, your not fat, your just big boned :)
Check out our discount thread for some good news guys! :)

Might have to sample it again tomorrow while the guys are decatting my car:luxhello:

:thumb: Cool, feb 18th, a work mate ows me a shift swap so if i do get rosterd (note cw42 ive got the spelling sorted this time) he'll swap. The charity thing is a jolly darn fine idea, i was thinking of a similar sudgestion but i feel i don't know you SMACS well enough to offer ideas but anyway glad you came up with that idea. Oh i can't get there for 8am but 9am is not a prob

ps, you spelt suggestion wrong this time :thumb:

one of the best rolling roads i've been to..........

http://bbs.22b.com/cgi-bin/ultimateb...5;t=000118;p=1

and no guessimates about road speed/rpms etc, they have a proper engine speed (rpm) sensor that hooks up to the engine to provide accuate data of rpm vs road speed and bhp etc............


if only Giles would smile a bit more.............

Put me dowm as a possible mate as my rota has me as working a day shift for this along with th 2nd Feb meet but I'm trying to sort somwthing out

I'm a RR virgin... so I'm a bit nervious.. not 100% how to put the power on correctly, but I'm sure you *******s will make it interesting..

As for the Astra man... bit of a tit but I probably shouldnt have given him the finger.. I'm 'tuff' in my Car... grrrr

julian giles no longer works at prosport.
wah, hope you can get the time off.
wondered when you were going to post on here super :) pimmo2000, you don't drive your car, the mechanics do, so don't worry about "putting the power down", the car will do that :)

As posted on the other thread, thats the stag-do weekend so I'm over in Belfast unfortunately. Have fun and raise lots of money for whatever worthy cause you decide on.

Providing its all mapped and set up and run in yeah ill give it a go.

RR not for me. There is a distinct lack of corners and adverse cambers :D

All have a good 'un though and for a good cause!

Come on darren, lets see what that WR1 is really putting out :)

Its not what youve got, its what you do with it that counts!

:D

chris.

Chris,

Are people going to put down what they have done to their cars so we get a rough estimate of what sort of BHP they are pushing out so we can guess better??

Tony:D

PS, think i saw your car last week ;) very nice :D

Good idea tony, I'll edit the list to facilitate that :)
Once you've fixed your windscreen, that should be good for about 2 bhp :lol1:
where did you see me? I keep looking in the "was it you" section, but no-one ever posts there:Whatever_
