6) Irf - Mk5 Golf R32

7) Tom_vRS - Mazda 3 Sport 2.2D 185

OK guys - looking like the 14th then, based on the poll so far and the people who can do either

Steve

But that's 10 people... and only 7 have signed up? lol

Can you not do the 14th Steve?

My thoughts are to confirm on the 14th date with Awesome and then see how the interest level goes. We have to remember that this might not even go ahead at the moment, given Awesome's current RR situation.

Steve

Can you not do the 14th Steve?

My preference was the first date Tom, but I can do the 14th - and that was before you put the 'either' option on

Ah, thats what I was getting at.

Poll amended (to make Babs wrong ) :P

Damnit! I challenge you do a duel! Who ever can get through a tank of fuel first, you are winner!

At 36.5mpg I won't be too far behind Mine's in the single figures on the instant readout at full throttle :eek:, I struggled to get single figures in the Octy!

Fingers crossed we hear from Awesome soon... Maybe they could train up Steve as the RR operator in exchange for a free run? :P

Hi Guys

Right I am back , I have just spent the last hour or so in the meeting

It is as we have feared , and I am sorry

We can`t offer those dates for a rolling road day I am afraid :( I am sorry

The guy who usually runs the rollers on the rolling road day is leaving us at the end of this week

We have another 2 rolling road days already booked , so we have had to make sure that we have these covered , and we have managed to do that , purly luck really

But the only other 2 dates that I have quoted , I am afraid , at such shor notice , we can`t provide someone to cover these

I have had some long long disscussions in regards the rolling road days that we do

As we do have some stunning rolling road days (and the Briskoda one with the police car was the one that was mentioned) we will still be able to do rolling road days , and we are going to look at also trining up some more members of staff , so we never run in to this situation again

What we want to do for you guys , is offer a rolling road day for you after the new year holiday , but to make it a bit more special for you guys too , is to see if we can do you some offers on the day

If you guys are unlucky , I may even look at making you guys some home made pies or something too , as I feel very sorry for this :(

Again my apologies , as this is something that Awesome as a company will not have anyone who is under trained to handle the rolling road and to do the runs correct , we cant feel we can replace Jeff with anyone

So Jim is doing the 2 we have booked in , but he is unfortunately unavailable too :(

Sarah

Thanks for letting us know.

Looking foward to pie in the new year

Ah well.

Drinks at Steves house it is then !

Thank you guys

I am so sorry :(

Sarah

Thanks for the update Sarah, and for your efforts in trying to sort something out.

I look forward to hearing more information about the possibility of a day in the New Year.

Steve

Nadgers :(

Thanks Sarah!

If you can let us know the earliest weekend, then we can get things up and running

You bet!!!

I will be having a word as we go and will make sure we get a super special one for you guys

We will have to see if we can make it as memorable as the others

Sarah

More racing toilets!

More e36 328s leaving the carpark sideways? :P

More racing toilets!

I heard you kept falling off them :P

Only the once

Ok, im putting the feelers out re interest in a rolling road day.

Im firstly looking at who would be interested.

I cant make a specific date at the moment as the other half is due to have ecotech junior next week. But it will be before mid november.

Thought people that might like to attend may have a suggestion on dates.

If we get 10 in then itl be £35 each. 3 runs and a print out.

I think theyre will be space for 15-18. I will confirm this as things get moving.

Its going to be in Hinkley, Leicester. (@ r-tech)

I realise this is a good drive for most on here, but thats half the fun aint it!

You will also get the chance to get your car remapped at discounted rates whilst your down there, if you havnt already had it done. Or even if you have!!

Any interest or questions then you know where I am.

Si

What do you think guys?

Leicester != The North West :thumbdwn:

I agree, Leicester is a bit far to go for a RR
