As long as the dates were suitable I'd make the effort.

It'd be good to back to my hometown and do a RR there too. Would be interesting to see if there were any discrepancies in the results from JKM.

If Topher can convince our heighweight and less agile brethren for us to join in, is anyone else (especially the Revo owners) up for this??  :smiley:

1st of November, bl00dy hell, do you lot want blood?

I already owe 10hrs from swapping a shift on the 31st October to go to the Manchester meet and now you want me to go down to the south of Birmingham the following day and then go on a 10hrs shift again!! :sad:

I'll see if I can get to one of the dyno's in Wakey or Leeds to satisfy you lot, but I must say that my results have varied more than most and it is only now that the car is running okay (touch wood!) that things are coming together. The RR day I went on last week was very good and in the link below it gives some idea of their dyno's accuracy and how they set it up. Also you will find in the link that they are one of the first choice dyno's for race teams and car manufacturers, so they have to give accurate results. :smiley:

Oh, and for me, when a guy in a "spirited" convoy with a tuned Skyline gets out of his car at the end of it and says "f**k me your car's quick", my car has to have a good few horsies :grin:

as you have all seen my results too were pretty disappointing, not overly bothered as car still runs really well am now just curious on what one with 40-50bhp more aka revo map will feel like.

will have words with them and if no success i will try a new one out, its obviously bluefin as correct me or not stevep with just a map got 278bhp on same rollers and mine with map and milltek tbe only  acheived 271bhp,  :huh:

ill put my graph up on monday, but it was not quite as noticeable as tellboys but both jinks in the curve were around the same point of the run, and needless to say nothing like this:

great day out though, nice to meet you all and thanks again to steve for organizing
