OcUK Rolling Road Day 12 @ PowerStation (Tewksbury) - July 23rd 2011

[Gibbo]

This is from the horses mouth,if you go i have been told to drive my dads car third party and he says he has more BHP than all of you

Yeah but a GTR eats Bentley's for breakfast.

 

[Gibbo]

Any noise limits on the day Andy?

No, they ran the Mustang, there is no limits.


However no wheelspinning or driving like knobs in the car parks or playing of stereo's otherwise the local residence kick of with Powerstation.

 

[Gibbo]

But But But we have the more power he says!

Power is not everything, plus the GTR is still quicker and throw a corner into the mix. Bentley's are for posh people who like cruising.

 

[Gibbo]

I have the keys here everyone looks at me when i am driving i have driven it lots of times no one here wants to race me

No doubt because its still quicker than 99% of other cars on the road.

 

[Gibbo]

I'm not sure of my drinking plans tonight, I might make it for the start time or may pot along at about 10ish - either way I'll be there.

You better be.

Just make sure you get there before 12 otherwise you might miss running.

 

[Gibbo]

So it seems around 50 cars are going. Splendid turn out.

Dry sunny day too.

 

[Gibbo]

Just seen this...



Never have I seen them do all of this on the RR days... just literally, put it on, strap it up, run the car, print graph. Not once seen the det cans or the AFR stuff come out..?

Are they actually planning to do this, this time?

They shall do so if you request it, more for those with tuned cars.

 

[Gibbo]

Is anyone taking a camera I can bring my DSLR along for some candid RR shots?

The more cameras the better, be great to see plenty of pictures and videos from the meet.

 

[Gibbo]

I'm not going to make a list, just wait until I am strapping your car down and just go "oi, can you check the *** purlease."

For once you don't need to be doing this on mine, must be a first.

 

[Gibbo]

I will be bringing my camera along So if anyone wants any pics, just let me know.

Cant decide which car to bring though!

Just a quick thought, is there somewhere closeby us spectators can park without clogging up Powerstation's car park?

Powerstations car park is quite large and there is always plenty of space around it to park as well, but I do believe this will be the largest Powerstation meet.

Remember folks bring the right money.

HI there

Not been home long, so shall look at getting charts up soon in this thread and a dedicated thread.

Just want to say thank you for everybody turning up, we had no dropouts and 25 runners in total, which is a record, not bad for a day where I took no deposits.
At one point it seemed like there was close to 50 cars, so awsome turnout.

Once again thanks to everyone, great to meet you all and for Bicepo, Naithwraith, Kosta, RG-Tom and Scuba for helping out and doing great job, plus the videos.
