I'll do it for free but a donation to help for heroes would be a nice idea at say £20 per car?

As the title suggested is anyone up for organising a rolling road day on the dyno dynamics rollers at my place which is in Altrincham near Manchester airport?
All in the name of fun of course and all types invited?
I'll do it for free but a donation to help for heroes would be a nice idea at say between 10-20 quid per car?
Thoughts?
I'd be up for this! Manchester is more accessible for me than Hinckley, i'm sure it's the same for many others (especially Scottish members).
It could be turned into a competition to see who could raise the most money for the forum charity, North vs South :grin:
-
Now your thinking :wink:
Anybody wanting to organise this event?
-
Now your thinking :wink:
Anybody wanting to organise this event?
I shall spread the word a little if you like. Are there any restrictions on the rollers? i.e. any times they cannot be used? how low cars can be etc?
-
Also what rollers are they?
-
I've got a 2wd Dyno Dynamics rolling road setup with good cooling and single point exhaust extraction, I've not had a problem getting vehicles on or off to date but I'm sure you guys will know more about this than me :wink:
Please pm me if you need my number to talk :wink:
-
I'd be bang on this. Hope you guys can get it sorted, will be popular as the northern gang are usually left out of RR days

I would volunteer myself if I didn't live quite so far away. I can have a word with the organisers of my local dub club if you like? See if they can put some feelers out to gauge interest?

Let me see what my work load is like after the new year. Dependant upon that I may be able to assist in organising :smiley:
-
Thanks guys.
I was thinking Feb / March / April sometime, the sooner the better IMHO
-
so not to clash with the R-Tech charity RR day and to aid getting more people to each event, maybe try look at organising it a good 2 months before or after the R-Tech RR day in June
-
I and a friend would be up for this :wink:
-
Date wise I was thinking mid March to April - thoughts?
Anyone still wanting to come and pre-scope the dyno etc?
-
hi doc, as i said in my pm to you ,i`m up 4 this let me know the date mate.cheers mark
-
Thanks for your interest and the PM :wink:
-
Ok, provisionally I'm thinking April any Saturday but I'll suggest the 16th as a starting point.
Thoughts?
We'll provide tea coffee coke crisps and biscuits etc :wink:
I'm trying to get some people on board to do video in motion etc

Sounds like a plan to me :afro:
***EDIT: BTW Doc, did you get my PM last week regarding a VR6?
-
If I'm free I'd be more than happy to pop along and photograph everything.
-
Sounds good, thank you.
Dom, Mrs Doc said no more cars until I sell / solve some of my current extra curricular projects :sad:
-
mmmmmmmmmmmm, time for all the southerners so get the passports out and head North perhaps.
So is the date set ?
Might have a bimble up the M6 ( and others ) and see some old mates in the NW for the weekend.
a well worthy cause after all :afro:
-
I'm happy with that date if you are?
-
evnin, 16th good with me mate cheers mark
-
evnin, 16th good with me mate cheers mark
and me!
-
Cool, start shouting about it
-
16th April is a while off but count me in, would love to see what the little mk1 can do.
-
Cool, I'll start getting the place tidied up!
Shall we start a list and is a £20 pledge OK?
I'll start:
The Doc £20

Can the rollers do RWD cars?
If so i've got a mate who will bring his Honda S2000 and his Civic FD2R.
-
Oh and:
The Doc - £20
Dom - £20
:smiley:
-
May well be up for this!
Doc are you saying that the RR is free? As long as we make a donation?
Normal RR cost is £30 to £40 so 20 quid is cheap!
-

Yup, £20 is a bargain! It'll be a chance for you to get the golf on the rollers this time Len :smiley:
-
Ah dunno about that! Long drive in the Golf and the Passat is so much more comfortable! :grin:
-
40min drive for me, i may attend :)
-
£20 donation = 3 power runs on the dyno and I'll include a printout :wink:
We can run FWD AND RWD but there is a little setting up to run from front to rear including moving the fans, exhaust extraction etc so I'd like to do the rwd's first or last thing please, or I'll do Friday if we have a big enough demand for this service :wink:
Putting the car on the dyno and 3 runs takes around 20-30 mins so I'll start at 9am and run as long as we can - I'm thinking 7pm so we've done a good 20 cars or £400 on the day.
If anyone wants to come over on Friday the 15th I could do some vehicles that day too.
I STRONGLY recommend that YOU check fluid levels and ensure your car is upto scratch before the car is put on the rollers as I will not be responsible for any problems caused by a poorly maintained vehicle.
Above all we'll have a cracking day and make a few bob for a very good cause :wink:
Our postcode is WA14 1TF
-
What day you doing the fwds as I'll pop down that day for 3 runs. See what the mk2 is running like.

Cheers....
The car can take as little or as much punishment as you like, basically the car is setup on the dyno at the correct speed to gear ratio, then we select that gear for the power runs (which is normally third gear btw) then put the pedal to the metal! We normally let off once the car reaches maximum revs, this is repeated three times to give your car a fair chance at making peak power.
However, if you'd rather not rev your car to the limit you can always ask us to stop at a certain rpm which we'll gladly do, but you may not get an accurate idea of the maximum power being achieved. By rule of thumb I normally pedal off when the power has hit it's obvious maximum.
Hope this helps.

Up you mean! :grin: 3 hour drive? Hmmmm well its beginning to look that way!
Reason for so many and I have been to JKM 3 times now, has really been to check what difference mods have made and to meet people.
First one was a place near Brooklands after fitting the K&N
Then just for fun and coz Billy wanted to check a Mk4 1.8T he had was at Silverstone.
Then the crap place at Aldermaston = Storm. (176.3bhp)
Then a place in Reading to get a more correct figure. (145 bhp)
Then JKM, twice with Golf and this last time with Passat.

I think my name will be going down but not yet! I will confirm as soon as I can.
Yea I actually know Altrincham quite well. At least the central bit around the Railway Station.
I stayed there back in the mid 80's when doing the Crown Courts extension. Would come off the M6 and use the A56 in and out.

2 mins away from the station :wink:

I may bob over just to have a butchers and meet some peeps not far away at all!
Just a hint...pop the edited version of the list on the first page of the thread to help peeps know how many place etc and change the thread date...I had to trawl to check out the exact details :wink: if I do come over I have cheapish Sony digi camcorder and would happily film the runs...need to check work dates and recoup on my fracture to drive first though :grin:
-
Thread date? You mean this is not on the 16th April????? :shocked:
-
£20 donation = 3 power runs on the dyno and I'll include a printout :wink:
We can run FWD AND RWD but there is a little setting up to run from front to rear including moving the fans, exhaust extraction etc so I'd like to do the rwd's first or last thing please, or I'll do Friday if we have a big enough demand for this service :wink:
Putting the car on the dyno and 3 runs takes around 20-30 mins so I'll start at 9am and run as long as we can - I'm thinking 7pm so we've done a good 20 cars or £400 on the day.
If anyone wants to come over on Friday the 15th I could do some vehicles that day too.
I STRONGLY recommend that YOU check fluid levels and ensure your car is upto scratch before the car is put on the rollers as I will not be responsible for any problems caused by a poorly maintained vehicle.
Above all we'll have a cracking day and make a few bob for a very good cause :wink:
Our postcode is WA14 1TF
Doc that postcode comes up as Downs Drive, which looks all Houses!?
Confused!

Thread date? You mean this is not on the 16th April????? :shocked:

Of course!
It is a charity day foremost, the chance to put a car on rollers is secondary really, the excuse for attending! :wink: :grin:
-
would it be ok to attend this without taking a car on the rollers ? and where abouts is it being held? should be a good laugh for a worthy cause! company name/website please
What Len said! The postcode is in the original post :wink:
-
Dom069 will be contacting you all with further information etc over the next few weeks.
All are welcome :wink:
Glad that day is full, if you want to get your car dyno'd but can't as Saturday's full why not come over on Friday the 15th?
I'll not be able to do as many cars as we will be working but we can certainly fit 10ish in :wink:

Just to pick up on this, there is only a tad over £400 left before we hit the target for the year, there are currently 21 people signed up which equates to £420. Lets see if we can smash that target! :cool:

Apologies to everyone for the lack of communication at the moment, had a lot on these last couple of weeks! The workload has eased slightly for the moment so over the weekend i'll post an updated list of who is attending, who has confirmed/paid etc.
I will also send out another message to those who signed up initially and haven't replied yet. I would really appreciate it if you could reply to any messages even if it is to say that you can no longer attend. At least that way we can open up potential places for others who may wish to come :smiley:

Ur too good to us doc. How is it at getting lowered cars on then?

Ur too good to us doc. How is it at getting lowered cars on then?
I've not put very lowered cars on before but I presume we'll need to drive your car onto the ramps then jack the rear of the ramps up to get them level with the dyno and put something underneath the ramps while the car is being dyno'd - we're working on a solution :wink:
-
Would it be easier to just raise my car up a little bit. What angle is the entry to the ramp on. Cos my mates ramp i can get on but have to take my splitter of with a few scrapes.

Based on those photo's i'd say you'd have to be 'dickhead low' to not get on the ramps :grin:
Btw splitters are there to be broken :wink:

Please, raise away, I'm afraid that I have no idea of the angle - I'll take a look tomorrow :wink:
-
I can get over speed bumps just so i might be able to get on em. If not al raise it outside. Broken splitters. I brake full bumpers. Not a good look really.
I just wanna see what the mk2 is running

Watch me:
a) Not get onto the ramp now
b) Break my splitter in trying
:laugh:
-
That would be unlucky to be honest but am sure it wont be the only car of the day.
It'll be a good golf+ spread. Just photos of golfs not being able to get on the ramp and broken splitters all over the place

Ur too good to us doc. How is it at getting lowered cars on then?
I've not put very lowered cars on before but I presume we'll need to drive your car onto the ramps then jack the rear of the ramps up to get them level with the dyno and put something underneath the ramps while the car is being dyno'd - we're working on a solution :wink:
jkm jack the arse end up, then stick some wheels under ramps and then lower it back down
as per

I'll be perfectly honest and this is no way a critisism but in my experience of Rolling Roads the morning session will finish a lot earlier than you expect!
Now if you want a lot of dead time in between then fine, thats what you will get!
The last three times at JKM have been finished by 1 at the most and that was up to 20 cars.
The last time was done by 12 and that I think was 15 cars.
All I can say is I will be there as early as I can. :wink:
-
I'm too excited. I want to know what my car is running. My mates have bets on what its running

Lots of coffee breaks :laugh:
Also i've tried to arrange it so that the people who have said they are going to be there all day are in the last few time slots. That way if we find we're ahead of schedule we can put someone from the last few slots in earlier in the day :wink:
I'm sure that Craig will also appreciate a little bit of time in between runs to have a chat with people and nose around cars etc :smiley:
-
I'm too excited. I want to know what my car is running. My mates have bets on what its running
It a standard ABF?
-
Since I posted that I did realise that all the other RR's I had been to had 2 people setting up, now if The Doc is doing most of that himself it will take a little longer.
But I would still guess at 15 mins per car.
Talking of coffee breaks and chilling in between might be an idea if folk could bring some folding chairs or plastic patio ones? Just a thought! :wink:
-
Its a kr dom not a abf. Quicker than my mates mk2 abf though. Hence wantin to know what it runs

Not long to go now guys!
Can I just suggest that everybody checks that their car is in a fit state to go on the rollers before Saturday, i.e. all fluids checked, no leaks etc. The last thing we want is to be fishing bits of engine out from the rollers :grin:

General directions,
M6 JN19 follow signs for Altrincham for around 8 miles keep going straight over roundabouts etc road bends but stays the same road - when you come to a Toyota garage turn right at the lights adjacent to it, go up hill and at the crest (approx 1/4 mile) turn right onto Canal Road, then 1/8 mile turn first left into MANWAY industrial estate, go straight down to the bottom and we're the last unit on the left TECHNOLOGIES HOUSE.

Hi all
Im sorry i couldnt make it (ok heres my excuse) Bloody talk talk have upgraded our internet.
Involved 4 phone calls from my gf's mobile, 3 line checks, a day off work, a service engineer, No help from BT and alot of swearing.
Sounds like it was a good turn out.
Next year then?

Can I just say a big thank you to everyone who came today, I had a great time! Pics and videos will be uploaded later, along with everyone's power outputs (unless anyone objects?) :grin:
124.4bhp from a near enough standard 8v, almost as much as a certain cammed mk2 valver :lipsrsealed:

Thanks to Doc and gang :smiley:
-
nice to see how much power my car was making, less than i exepcted but 117.3 bhp and 146/147ftlb of torque! going to stick standard exhaust on tomorrow and then get the timing sorted, ill be back! :smiley: :smiley:
enjoyed it though was good to meet people off the forum.
cheers again. :smiley:
-
Ok, just totted up the total raised from the day! By my calculations (and these may be wrong as it is late and has been a very long day!) we raised in total £503.87 including Chuff's donation whenever that is made :wink:
So another big thanks to everyone who came along and made it such a good day, and helped to raise a decent amount of money for a very worthwhile cause :afro:

Thank you, we were rolling road day virgins you know :embarassed:
In stark contrast were back to Fuel / Emmissions testing next week, starting with TX4 taxi's on Monday and progressing to Ford Transits by Thursday :grin:
-
fair play if that was your full on day craig :afro:
But you need to learn to delegate more :tongue: biggest bloke there doing most of the under car stuff :shocked:
get the younger slim jims doing it :laugh: :grin:
Oh and i have now paid up too :wink:
-
Great effort by everyone there :afro:
Looks like you had a cracking day :cool:

The shortest time we normally have cars on the rollers is around half a day and the longest around a week when we're doing EU drive cycle runs so one every 20 mins is a massive difference to us :grin:
I'll let the young 'uns do the strapping next time but this time round I needed to know the best way to strap each type onto the dyno as I've only had mk4, 5's and 6's to date.
Got to say we all enjoyed ourselves and I'm happy that we made over 500 squid for help for heroes :wink:
Lets get your wagon mapped and have a rematch soon me thinks as we had some not running too well and some VERY low ones that I clearly need to KICK the crap out of more on the dyno :wink:
and I'll go first next time :wink:
-
Looked a cracking day with some great power figures. :cool:
-
Cheers to Craig for the day and the vagcom check! :wink:
Well done to Dom.
Good to see and meet some new faces.
Well done to my car for trouble free drives! That M62 is quite awesome! :grin:
-
Craig and team did us all proud.
My suggestion for next year is to install a weigh-bridge at Carbon so that we can all pretend to fall out about torque to weight ratios.
Mature or what? :tongue:

Ian in a Mini?? surely a hazard for the headlining.
- Could look a bit like a giraffe in a phone box, - now that I'd like to see.
Sunroof and full face helmet could be the answer but what have you Lincolnshire lads got against cars with suspension travel? I've driven over there and the roads are no smoother than on the Westside..
:smug:
