about 8am? :eek:

Yeah your right, 150bhp standard (its the same engine as mk3 golf gti 16v) only engine mods are custom exhaust and k&n panel filter. I'm worried my custom exhaust could be losing me power, so interested to see how it does on the rollers. If it is losing me power ill dump it and buy a proper sports exhaust system.

Think it will have to be 7ish? at gordano.

Tom you have the clio dont u? my brother whos coming with me will be interested in seeing your car, he had a modded clio 1.8 16v.

Yeah i used to have a modded 1.8 16v too! Loved it and thats why i decided to go for this one...

Them engines in your car are good. Heard of them making up to 160bhp in standard form. Will be interesting to compare our cars. Mine has a few more mods though and made 170odd last time it was RR'd.

As for 7ish! Christ!! I wont be able to see at that time in the morn! lol What time do we have to be at Bridgewater for?

I do have temporary use of vag-com yes, whilst my car is still in "flux" - proving to be the most useful thing I've borrowed in some time. Car wouldn't even be running without it, let alone have faults diagnosed, etc :D

If i get somewhere around 150bhp ill be happy.

I think im right in saying we are meant to be meeting at bridgwater services at 8!

Let me know what time your meeting at Gordano and i'll be their.

Theres a member from bristol with a black octavia vrs whos interested in meeting up/convoying down from gordano to.

Coming up from Reading on the M4, I'm OK for a get together at gordano.

Just to be clear, we're leaving Gordano at 8:30 to arrive at TSR for 9, right?

I have just checked to confirm the meeting times. There is a meeting point at bridgwater services at '8AM' or if you want to go straight to TSR you should be their 8.30ish.

What time shall we meet at Gordano folks?

7.15 perhaps???

I'm going to be at Bridgwater for 8am - Looks like I'll be on my own then - lazy lot! :P :rofl:

Its going to be a relaxing little session, very easy-going - nothing regimental - so don't feel pressured to arrive at 8am on the dot at Bridgwater.

You can get to bridgewater from Gordano in half hour ish

7.30AM @ Gordano???

You can get to bridgewater from Gordano in half hour ish

Could do if everyone else is up for that?

TBH, 7:30 at Gordano is a bit early for me, having to treck along the M4 and being invited to a party Friday night... :o

Will TSR be there for 8, Jason? If so, great, otherwise it seams a bit pointless to meet at Gordano that early if we end up pottering about waiting for TSR to open up. Personally, I'd rather have the extra 30 minutes in bed :P

7.30AM @ Gordano???

:eek: Damn thats early :finger:;):rofl:

I'll be there at 07:30 :thumbup:

:rofl:

The deal is TSR will open their doors at 8.30am. 8am at Bridgwater services is just for a pre-event social chinwag, etc. It won't matter if anyone doesn't arrive at TSR until 9am.

Like I said, its going to be a "gently gently" day - relaxed, laid back, and a bit of fun (thats referrig to ripping your car apart, Xav! ;) :P)

i shall be passing gordano at about 0815 aiming for tsr 0900. will already have a very small convoy going on (3 cars)! :thumbup:

if anybody is still there then keep an eye out for us, silver octy rs, silver fabia rs, burgondy mk2 scirocco.

tom, el richy, dave shall we meet up with 'm17rkj' and his convoy @ Gordano????

this would mean a longer lie in bed for us in/nr bristol lol and a bigger convoy!

Hows does 8.15 @ Gordano sound to everyone?

Right - Just as a warning so no-one is too disheartened - The runs at TSR will only give you (from what I hear) a top BHP figure for your car. Obviously for the 1.8T this should more or less match the torque? For the TDIs going I guess you multiply this BHP by 1.4 or 1.5 to get to the torque figure. There's some formula for it anyway.

08:15 sounds slightly more sociable - I'm in :thumbup:

  • Author

Just to say that if people wish to show up at 10am+ it won't really matter as we'll be able to get started with the early ones. ;)

Also, we can give Xav his first run early, then do all the work needed, and second run last. :D

RIGHT THATS IS SETTLED GORDANO SERVICES AT 8:15AM!!!!!!

IF WE MEET BY THE ENTERANCE TO THE MAIN SERVICE STATION IM SURE WE WILL FIND EACH OTHER!

:thumbup:

8.15AM @ GORDANO IT IS!!

So i make that me (cordoba) tom (clio) el richy (octavia) and drm_jones (octavia)

'm17rkj' can you confirm if you and your convoy will be meeting us at 8.15 @ Gordano?

See u all Saturday :thumbup: Paul
