Unfortunately I'm leaving early on the 4th, family wedding you how these things drag onfrown so have to pass on this occasion I'm sure you'll all have a great time.
Sadly I'm all too familiar with how long they drag on. Will probably be arranging another late August / early September so will let you know.

Notorious for being a very low reading rolling road and upsetting people hehe For example, I had a printout for 360hp with my car, it made 342hp on RS tunings rolling road thumbup
I'd rather it reads under instead of over. I'll be using it as a benchmark and then using the same rollers after any future upgrades.
yes A low reading hints at it being closer to the truth than some of the more optimistic rolling roads.

Yup. I'm interested in seeing what the whp difference is between the NA 5.0 in my ISF and the supercharged 5.0 in my brothers XFR.

Anyone else interested? 2 people short as it stands...

Slight issue chaps. Went in to pay the deposit and confirm the booking only to be told that they are now closed on Saturday 4th June as they are attending the French Car Show. A tad annoying given that they previously claimed that date was fine.

The alternative dates are Saturday 11th or Saturday 18th June. Any preferences?

Can more turn up and pay on the day or is it booking only? I have about 4 friends who are maybe's at the moment and probably more will come out of the woodwork nearer the day!

More on the day should be fine but I think they want to keep an eye on numbers in advance. I can always add them to the maybe list? Will be running in order of drivetrain on the day.

Hmm now this will be a pain. Last time round we did FWD/AWD/RWD as that's the order RS Tuning suggested. As it stands the breakdown is 1 FWD/5 AWD and 4 RWD. I'll speak to RS Tuning and see what order they would want to run in.

You wouldn't have to be there for 09:00 on the dot if you don't fancy waiting about?

That's fine. I've already left a deposit with them so all you need to do is pay on the day. If you could let me know how many other Supras can make it then that would be great.

No it's just a generic list. It's likely to be all wheel drive cars first, then front wheel and finally rear wheel. Will confirm with them on Tuesday.
