HSV DYNO DAY III Return of the FI

[crisisjez]

A long, long time ago in a county far, far away......



Surrey Rolling Road, ehco`d to the familiar sounds and smells of high performance engines (and bacon sarnies)
straining at full power to the delight of all lucky enough to be present. The FI, a force to be reconed
with throughout the known forum one by one stepped up and were counted. Watching this display
with impassive eyes and a sharp pencil was `The Rich`, a shadowy figure of such Knowledge
that few doubted his ability. High ambient temperatures and belt slippage laid waste
to the vast armies of horsepower at the disposal of the FI and `The Rich` and
his followers the NA brought the full force of their armies (which were
impressive) to bear with great results. Victory that day was only
won due to the Great FI Master OZ and his totally captivating
demonstration of horsemanship. Save for his efforts the
day would have been lost to the simple efficiency of
the NA.


This time....its colder


May the forced be with you!!!!!

Just realised I've never met any of you, how will I know who I'm talking to?

I'll make badges for the handles and stickers for the cars if anyone's interested. I can post them down to Jez and you can pick them up as you arrive.

A little peurile I know, but practical. I found it difficult at the last one and TBH it does p**s you off having to ask everyone who they are and which cars they owned.

That`s a mega idea Gareth, will be a usefull think for other meetings too

Why is Jez not on the list ??

If you`re going to ask everyone else and not me....then I`m not going to tell you

Just kidding... I`m either Monkfish 1 or 2 depending on wether the cars finished in the morning or afternoon

OK Guys, I promised Jez I would do badges and stickers, but I am short of a couple of Christian names (some of you are a bit shy with your profiles).

Here is a list of people "Rolling" and some who are along for the fumes. Can you either PM me or fill in the list. I can then make you each a nice ID card (badge) and an encapsulated sign for your car windscreen. Each will have your forum handle and Christian name underneath.

This will mean we can all recognise our forum mates. You could keep them for future meets as well.

Anyone else going from the forum and would like a badge, just PM me with the details and I'll sort it. Thanks.

Edited to remove my car reg Gareth mate...............

[crisisjez]

Got the badges and signs from Gareth for us all.
Nice job mate!!!!!!
See ya all there...

I see the long term forecast is for 25 degrees's C

i`m not bovvered!!!!

ringram said:

Better get some tissues as well. I think there will be some tears.

Plus a few bags of ice for the SC boys, so they can "adjust" the temperatures.

Do we need to bring you some spare engine mounts mate, would be a shame to get it on the rollers only to have it rip its way out the bay before Charlie put his foot on the gas

ringram said:

PS: I made the temperature up

Its ok, I rounded down the belt slip losses

I`m like Bruce Lee me mate.....
(well beyond belts)

Tea and coffee on me

Hmmm... my muffin was rather dry yesterday .....

[crisisjez]

stigmundfreud said:

someone deleted all the table and put up "how do I do this?"

well, hint, by not deleting all the hard work I done (mel)

Think there is a web mismatch here as any posts on your thread on the Monaro forum deletes your whole wiki mate...

Hi there,

I work for Total Vauxhall magazine, and we were talking to Roger at Monkfish yesterday about some V8-based features. He mentioned the rolling road event taking place next week. We'd really like to cover it in the mag if you guys are up for it? We'd also like to come along for the event taking place at Shakespeare County Raceway to get some snaps/the story of the day... I tried to email the organisers via PH but it doesn't seem to be working.

My email is [e-mail] and my tel no is 01225 442244 2951.

Many thanks - Dougie Rankine, Features Ed, Total Vauxhall.

Hi Dougie.

Our paths kinda crossed at Monkfish yesterday, was up there checking out progress on mine. (Was blocking you in with Mental Betty, big old blue thing)

Nice one, would be good to get TV interested in our goings on, this summer looks like we may have much for you to write about.

See you there on the 4th, any questions just PM me.

If the slot does become free (whenever), I'd like it. I might as well if I'm taking the car there!

There`s a spare slot at 1500 if you want that.....
I`ll give Mel a couple of days, and as I`m not running there`s room for all tbo.....
