OCUK Rolling Road 11 - Saturday March 19th 2011 - Eurospec, Guildford - Pictures, graphs, discussion

Cant be bothered to get the scanner out.

I did take a video of it on my phone but it plays wrong will try and sort it out now although I know Kosta has a few videos of it

Does anyone know:

a) Who was driving the E36 Touring
b) Why it was covered in fake Alpina badges?

It was me :)

To answer your question, I don't know if the previous owner put them on, but they were on the car when I got it. The air dam, wheels and gear-stick are all genuine Alpina.

If I could be arsed, I would fit Schrick badges instead of the Alpina ones but I can't be :)

Oh, and a big thanks to the organiser, hopefully next time I'll sort out a run for the car!

My graphs:

It's pretty much what I was hoping for, which is good :)

I'm happy with the consistent power delivery as well. The guy said that my induction kit was very warm/hot and so could be sucking power. But for the sake of the noise it provides I'm not fussed about 1-2hp loss.

Interesting loop at the beginning of my run though :p
 
If anyone could explain the random little loops/anomalies that seem to occur in the graph above, as well as others throughout the day (if they're anything other than the dyno's software having a paddy, that is) then I'd be interested. :D
 
So, I think we can be sure that virtually nobody at the meet knew who everybody else was - (un)fortunately there are almost too many people for that to be possible!

Sounds a bit akward, :confused:

Shoudl get some name tags printed out with forum names on it next timr "Hello, my name is ****" etc. :p

Not really :confused:

You dont really feel like you don't know the people even if you've never met them before as you recognise the forum names etc. It is far easier to just walk up to a bunch of people at an event like this than it would be to do the same in your local, for example.

You get all kinds of people turning up to these meets but you all have something in common - cars. There are some very sociable people and there are people that seem to do nothing but sit in their cars or watch from a distance (and everything inbetween!).

Basically, just come to one and you'll figure it all out.
