Porsche Rolling Road Day?
Discussion
Guys,
Looks like we are all systems go, having got (just) the 12 car minimum to make this thing happen. So just a quick reminder May 15th (Weekend after next) at G-Force in Aylesbury. It's going to be £50 per car but that includes a pre-run fluid check (plus disconnection of 4WD for 993TT owners). Hopefully we should start around 9:00am. I wouldn't arrive too late as 12 cars are not going to take all day.
Looks like We'll have an interesting cross section of Porsche ownership.
1-Steve Earp (996 Turbo), Blue 996 Turbo.
2-Barry Jeddo (BarryJ), Red 993 Turbo.
3-Ian Dorrian (Ian-Dorrian), Red 993C4S.
4-Andrew Derodra (AndrewD), Silver 996 GT3.
5-Alan Friedman (Aceparts-com), ??????.
6-????? (neon-fox), Grey 964C2.
7-Felix Klauser (Phelix), Silver 993 Turbo.
8-????? (Infernored), ?????????.
9-Stu (StuT), Noble GTO.
10-Gary Ramsdale (Aceparts-com), ???????.
11-Greg Terrence-Cook (Buster), Black 996TT X50.
12-Gerry Gibbins (911Habbit), Blue 996TT.
If your not on the list or I've got your details wrong drop me a mail. Anyone else who fancies coming along just drop me a mail with Name, Pistonheads ID, Car, Colour, year

Well done Steve!
How many cars do we need to have to get the price per car reduced - was it £40 per car if we had 20 cars?
Since we've just got the 12 minimum what happens if one person drops out?
For these two reasons, should we open this up to the PCGB forum? I'm happy to post it there if you want but its your call Steve.

I'm guessing they are not going to get too arsey about one or two dropping out. It might get a bit embarrassing if we drop below 10.
So if you'd like to open it up feel free. Get them to e-mail me directly on RR@planetEarp.net

I'm convinced that ever since I mentioned this rolling road day that my car has been about a 100BHP down!
I'm doing a day with Don Palmer on Wednesday so i hope it's still in one piece come saturday!
See you all then!

(993 Turbo)

BarryJ,
Did you have any feedback from the owners club?
Hi Steve, I posted this on the PCGB forum with your e-mail address but I've had no responses and I assume that you haven't either.
One possible explanation is that someone at PCGB has arranged a rolling road day at elsewhere and posted this a couple of weeks ago so has had a head start and already got some 24 cars.
It may be worth posting on Titantic (if anyone here is a member - I'm not) or opening it up for other forums/makes within Pistonheads.

So, how did the day go?
Do you have a list of results?
I couldn't make it yesterday, and would be interested to hear your impressions!
Well there was some good news and some bad news...
The bad news is having turned up at 9 along with Barry, Ian, Andrew, Alan, Fleix and Neon-Fox. We found out that the Rolling Road had broken and we were unable to run our cars. Chris from G-Force tried to make some calls but was unable to resolve the problem.
The good news is we get to do it all over again on the 29th of May. I want to try and keep the original attendees happy so we could get a later date if required although this would be more like August. So anyone who fancies rolling road II on the 29th drop me a mail at RR2@planetEarp.net and I'll add you to the list.
Thanks to everyone who turned up it was good to meet you and get a look at your fantastic cars. All of which looked superb. Can anyone who turned up late (after we'd gone home) drop me a mail, there may be some more good news for you ;-)
Cheers, Steve.
P.S. I'll start a new thread called rolling road II for the new event.
