I'll be bringing my DLSR and could film some runs...but I'll probably just get some shots of members cars outside Powerstation though.

Great! Thanks

pugheaven · 8 Apr 2013 at 22:12

Sure between us all we'll get some vids and shots of everyone's cars and runs... need a massive group photo if possible!

LOL Ok sounds like fun!

Standing start to a set location or what?

Rolling, can be standing from the garage, done 110 leptons from standstill.

But just throw it round the corner quick as you can and foot in it all way up hill.

I thought you meant of the people...outside Powerstation and indeed in the pub carpark there isn't enough space to get all the attending cars in one shot but between everyone with cameras I'm sure we'll get shots of all the cars.

There is usually someone in the room with a camera too so often there are pics of the cars running as well as the videos.

My car is deffo not one of the slowest, last time there was 6 of us in it and it still wouldnt wanna stay on the rollers.

Also is anyone doing a convoy from the South?

InvaderGIR · 8 Apr 2013 at 22:42

Mike, Southern convoy from Chievely services should be up at some point soon, so head there.

Or just head to the Michaelwood services for the bestest convoy ever.

Sort of maybe.

I am probably heading along the A40 instead of coming down the A34 to go along the M4 then back up, means less milage and the drive isn't as boring.

Welcome to join if you want!

Ah, TBH I misread the VX220 comment and thought that was yours, Doh!

Hah, if only! Insurance on that would be about a year's wages...

I remember seeiing the pictures from last time, hence why I find it funny that potentially the slowest car attending is running right after your beast, talk about a difference heh.

Aye bring rybo, would be good to meet him.

Haha! I can't wait to see this in person!

We had to stick two people in the back of mine last November to get some traction but it was about 2°C out and wet so my tyres just didn't want to grip the rollers.

no chance of getting folks to fit in back of mine, is it possible I could have problems ?

I guess it depends on the weather and your tyres.

Can always open the boot and have someone sit there

You need less power is what you need lol
