BMW won't be built by then so I'll pull it now.  Just the vRS for me.

  • I might come along in my brisk milkfloat. Won't be able to put it on the rollers, but happy to chitchat and let you experience organ-displacing acceleration if you want

  • For some strange reason, I thought I'd do a 10K obstacle run

    That would all depend on who I met on said ferry...

Ahh I get it one of those, where it never gets done ;)

Never say never!! I have to admit it has taken longer than I had wanted initially but then again people keep persuading me to buy shiny bits for it (M50s, cams, LSD, Lightweight wheels, track tyres, ...)  I've run out of cash (temporarily) maybe I'll just start stripping it and sell the bits!!

Can you add me and my mate onto the list!! Looking forward to seeing what my fabia is pushing!!

Done. Glad another RWD is coming :)

I'm still waiting on dates for some training so can't commit yet, but would be nice to go for once!

Hi All,

 

Some of you may remember last year i organised a rolling road day at JKM Portsmouth. The day was a success with a good turn out with lots of like minded enthusiasts to talk to and discuss all things cars (both fossil fuel and electric!!)

 

I'm hoping to do the same this year, i have not approached JKM yet as they will probably want a minimum of 10 people signed up before they run the day so this is just a feeler for those who want to come and see what power their cars are making :)

 

Few points to note... JKM's rollers are 2WD only. Most of us will be wanting to run a FWD car which is fine, any of you who have RWD car and want to run (including myself) then please still put your name down. JKM will ask for a minimum number of RWD cars (not sure what this will be yet) as they will need to turn the rollers round to get them in and if there's only a couple running then it won't really be in their interest. RWD cars will run after all FWD cars nearer the end of the day.

No vans except VW caddy size

The dyno has a small ramp which leads up to it. Any cars which are very low will not get on the dyno. Please check with me first if you are unsure.

All runners will receive a colour print out of the best run.
 

As i said above, we have been running this day for a few years now with good success. JKM's rollers are renowned to be some of the most accurate in the country (aptly named the "heartbreak rollers") so bring a box of tissues with you!

 

Provisional date, pending JKM's availability, is Saturday 28th of October.. same day as last year where ambient temps are usually low... good for power! :biggrin:

 

Cheers

 

Andy

 

 

UPDATE

 

So now we have 10 people on the list I have contacted JKM and he date is held! The details are as follows: 

 

The event is on Saturday 28th October and starts at 09:00am, gates open at  08:45am


Minimum of 10 cars - Maximum of around 25-30 cars. 3 minimum RWD cars for them to turn the rollers round at the end of the day.

 

£35 for 3 back to back runs - cash preferred on the day to speed payments up.

 

No Vans, expect VW Caddy size, No 4 wheel drive cars or Haldex 4 wheel drive

 

The dyno has a small ramp which leads up to it. Any cars which are very low will not get on the dyno. Please check with me first if you are unsure.


You will receive a colour print out of the best run.

Free Tea/coffee/Biscuits will provided all day

 

Please keep putting your names on the list so we can track how many cars will be turning up. 

 

See you there guys!

 

Count me in . Need to dyno  mine after chipping it . 1 from Isle of Wight on its way over

Edited by andsoutham

Regrettably I am going to have to remove myself and Jack B from the rolling road day as we have double booked ourselves with the WRC in Wales. 

 

LukeE can be removed as he 330ci is a lemon and basically will kill itself on a dyno.  

 

Wish I could have seen what my stage 1 tdi was making but oh well! Have a great day guys :D 

me too please! :D Fabia 3 estate... all be it standard lol

I am interested in this, but it is a 260 mile round trip. It's a shame it's not closer to me.

Quite a trek haha

 

 

If anyone knows someone with a RWD car who's interested then we need a couple more before JKM will turn the Dyno round after the FWDs run

 

Cheers
