OCUK Rolling Road Meet 4 - Bolt on Goodies - Official Sign Up Thread

[paradigm]

I guess I have an excuse now to drive really fast.

Yes, I can see it now...

"Hi officer"
"Do you realise you were doing 140MPH+"
"Yes, its to keep my engine cool"
/Funny looks

 

[Hawk Tuah]

Ow. If only I could get my manifold fixed before the weekend, I'd of come.

Sadly, the specialists are all booked up until mid august, so the car's gonna have to sound like a banger for a bit longer.

 

[austinpowers]

Yeah as soon as I move it goes back down.

I will still be there, if the car makes it that is.

Just stick the heater on hot, that'll help regulate the temp.

 

[agw_01]

And if the temp continues to rise, stick the interior fan on to get the temp down. Unless the fan on the radiator is still coming on when it gets too hot.

Btw, does anyone know what the weather is supposed to be like tomorrow. I've just checked the BBC website and it's showing a thunderstorm

 

[paradigm]

BBC website

About as accurate as playing darts... blindfold.

It recons that its wet here right now, I can only see sun.

 

[DreXeL]

I've always found this place pretty accurate. Looking pretty good for Saturday according to that

 

[paradigm]

I find weather.co.uk to be less accurate than BBC.

www.metcheck.com (ie the metoffice) seems to be the best.

 

[Hilly]

Hey Con, i'll deffo be there mate.

Cheers

 

[IainB]

Would there be any problem turning up on the day, with the aim to run if not just to view?

I've got my MOT on Wednesday, you see....

Lashout - I seem to remember you being closer than I thought, are you anywhere near MK (as I will be going up the A5 then across country Saturday morning).... or have I got horribly confused

 

[[ui]ICEMAN]

Well the new cars have arrived, however the plates for the GT aren't due til tomorrow (it needs metal plates as plastic ones just melt on the exhaust...) so its cutting it a bit fine. Will get some pics up for you soon.

 

[Firestar_3x]

Cool

Whats the other car?

Whats the other car?

There's 2 others, a 997 C4S and something very new and difficult to get indeed but I'll save that one for the pictures.

At which point do we tell Dez that this is an elaborate hoax and there is no rolling road day?

 

[DezUk]

Heh

I am not 100% insane as i have deceided to make trip out of it and go visit friends in leatherhead. Will go see them after the RR day and spend a couple days there then head back up the road.

 

[Will Gill]
