Lum · 1 Feb 2009 at 00:55

If you mean me then nah, I'm not going now, apparently my car can't run on it. (see discussion thread)

James07 · 1 Feb 2009 at 01:02

Haha just relised, the place is near Bristol? Ill be setting off early then

As for the wiltshire guy, not a chance lol sorry.

Lum · 1 Feb 2009 at 01:04

From where you're coming from it's about an hour closer than Bristol I reckon.

or 3 hours closer from the centre of Bristol

Is he a forum member?

no

So is there an up to date list of who's going, the cars being taken and if there are available spaces? This thread appears to have deteriorated...I might bring my Scooby as I haven't had it dyno'd since it got the Ecutek treatment last Summer...

Adding James07 to it?

Phate · 1 Feb 2009 at 17:55

James, no offense....and theres no real easy way to say this....people aren't really going to want to see a Punto on the rollers...unless it's something really special.

A few RR's ago it was done so anyone and anything could run, about 30odd people ran and to be fair towards the end when the proper powerful cars were running people were getting bored, tired and wornout and just wanted to go to the pub lol.

After all the running is done if you want to organise it with Powerstation your more than welcome to.

If theres a space come towards the day then sure, you can have it.

Dont worry.

I'd rather see his Punto than agw's Rover, AGAIN, given it runs on every single RR.

Sone · 1 Feb 2009 at 18:02

does sound a little harsh to me, its your party though i suppose

It hasn't been to the last 2?

This time it's gonna be kicking out about 230bhp...ish.

It's only been on the rollers once to my knowledge.

paradigm · 1 Feb 2009 at 18:03

There is a diesel Rover 420 on the list though :/

This is the alleged Rover which 'pulls like a steam train' though.

InvaderGIR · 1 Feb 2009 at 18:11

I can see both sides of this, and to be honest, at the moment the numbers aren't great, and if James would like to see what his car puts out, why not chuck it on for fun? First car, that usually gets ignored.
