Title: Any Rolling Road days coming up...?
Post by: Vtec Abuser on 24 April 2008, 13:48
Now then chaps..
I know there was a recent RR day at Awesome that a few of you lot went to. But after this weekend I shall have my mods in place and would like to get her on the rollers at some point in the near future.
So is there one coming up and if not would anyone be up for attending one? If so, any suggestions of where (Awesome etc)?
As I would rather have some other Ed30's or even GTI's to compare against, rather than just get it done on my own..

You missed the free one down south a bit earlier this year bling :sad:

I think SteveS went to it from memory.

Quite accurate too as it was a rototest dyno.

I don't mind asking JKM. I'm going to be calling them anyway. That way I can tie it in with my updated map.  :smiley:

It's Portsmouth though so thats quite a way down south.

I think we may end up with 2 RR days then as Portsmouth is waaaay too far for me.

I'd be up for another but within reason - Manchester is doable, Portsmouth is probably a little far for us midlanders!

In May Hurdy's going all sentimental and will mostly be found kissing his windscreen at various roundabouts around the country  :drool: :drool:

No, i'm not going stage 3. I'm at stage 1 at the moment so.............. :wink:

Still debating these. Resolving the traction issues may give better results than more power once over 300bhp.

I remember you saying you wanted to meet up and get to know us all after the GTI spring fest and so this is probably one of the best ways outside Inters to do it :smiley:

You're not wrong there mate.. RR days are especially good for that, as everyone is at the same place. Where as at shows everyone is mixed in with the crowd.. If you not what I mean..  :huh:
