Idea for a meet Jim, I fancy a rolling road day again, perhaps at somewhere different to last time because they were rubbish. :D

Wouldn't have anything to do with the remap would it Rich?

Don't know what you are taking about :D

There is a place nearby, but any excuse to get together and go to the pub too.

which rollers are you thinking of ?

Might have the beast running by then but i'll have to be careful to not burn the rollers out ;) as the owners never believe any Rover can do more than 200bhp.

Took my mates 620Ti to one set and promptly set his rollers on fire. We did tell him it was 400bhp and wouldn't have it, lol

We used awesomegti last time, but turns out he doesn't know how to test automatics as the manuals were getting sensible figures, but remapped diesel autos he was giving figures of 90bhp.

I am open to suggestions, it would be brilliant to see yours running, even better to watch it set fire to some ignorant owners equipment. :D

I have sent an email to a local company, watch this space.

Ok, I have sent out several emails and had only one reply.

Wgt Auto Developments in Middlewich

We need a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 15 cars, price is £40 each for three runs with a printout.

They are confident with automatics, and their dyno has a 1000bhp limit.

Who wants a go?

It will be a Saturday, but I don't want to approach them for a date without knowing enough people want to go.

if you are thinking end of July onwards then the beast should be run in by then so i'd be interested.
Be useful as i'd like to run through normal exhaust system and then at the flick of the switch through the race one and see back to back comparison run.

They might need earphones though ;)

Hi Rich, could very well be interested in rolling road but didn't the last set of results seem disconcerting? When are you thinking of doing the event?

The manual results were spot on, we think it was operator error for the automatic results. We won't be going back there.

No date planned, I wanted to see if there was sufficient interest before asking for a date.

Excellent, name added :)
