Put me down for the weigh in

Vita · 6 Oct 2016 at 20:48

Change my car to - Seat Leon FR TDI

Should we all get weighed with a similar amount of fuel to compare, or am I thinking a little far here

Easy enough to make a basic correction based on fuel tank size/quantity the fuel gauge shows

I'll be wanting to get a weight whilst as close to competition spec as I can get it, which will mean minimal fuel. Will need to balance that against making sure I have enough for the rollers though as I cba mucking about with a jerry can

I am just filling my tank to maximum on both cars and the M3 will have some weights in the back.

So 15 for the RR and 6 for the weigh in so far.
Going from the results the poll where 40 people voted for stoke, I was expecting more to be fair.

kaiowas · 10 Oct 2016 at 12:30

I'm looking more likely to run than not, sprinting Saturday and Sunday this weekend though so will hold off confirming until after then, assuming the car comes through unscathed.

Things change dude, the poll was months ago.

An important lesson: people are far more enthusiastic when they don't have to actually do anything. It's why most protests these days are confined to Twitter, for example.

As I said, I planned to at least watch, but other things got in the way.

Are we OK to ask a couple of local car buds to join if we need to fill spaces?

I started the poll mid August and closed the thread beginning of September and.. that's not that long ago. Plus I was specific with the wait for TI Motorsport.

Reality is, people vote with zero intention of attending. Just like those who put their names down for meets and never show...

ianh · 11 Oct 2016 at 00:31

I don't think it's fair to say that there's only a single reality, which is apparently malicious.

While I agree that some people will have voted without any intention of going, for the vast majority what is more realistic is that in this case, with 60+ days between the start of the poll and the day of the dyno run, things may change and the day is no longer do-able. I know that's what my excuse is as I voted in August but now can't go due to work.

I'd be interested (as said in the poll) but the date is unsuitable. I'm on track on the Monday so throwing fuel and dyno money away 2 days before seems a bit silly.

ScoobyDoo69 · 13 Oct 2016 at 11:08

Bump.
