Griff Pre-cat Rolling Road Session


Is there anyone out there interested in a rolling road session?
Pop your name here if you're interested:
  1. LordGrover - 430

Note: purely self interest - the torque figures I had at the Griff Growl are suspect so Baz is going to re-test it.

Hoover.

would it not be a better bet at the Surrey Rolling Road... as most people seem to use that as a bench mark......

I'll be up for some of it any way

Hey up Dean! byebye How's you and 'er in doors? Hve you seen anything of the couple in the Tuscan (Den? I'm hopeless with names) since the Growl? Enjoyed meeting you. thumbup

Hoover too; if I'm honest, Surrey RR suits me better too - it's closer, but CHR have been very good at answering loads of queries I've fired at them so I feel compelled to use them really. If I can't get enough interested in this one, then maybe we can have another pop at SRR?

Of course you can Mike. smile
Having said that there's not a great deal of interest thus far - maybe swap it to Surrey Rolling Road later to see if more are interested.

Hmmm ... currently two-nil. How about best of five to give you a fighting chance? wink

btw Ben (& Mike), have you ever thought about getting the heads modified? CrazyCraig has pointed me towards this website to teach me a little about torque, power, rolling roads, etc. but reading further it sounds quite interesting. scratchchin

If my heads ever come off, I'll go for BV spec (whatever that is) assuming they're not already. I'm not really into ultimate power though, prefer making the best of what I've got! Still reckon you've got a cam and probably head/porting work done, chip to suit and of course your fancy manifolds. Best of 5 it is then - assuming you don't get a hatrick!

I dont think different heads would be much benefit for me now,LG.
