Rolling road - 10th July



We have arranged a Jaguar day on the 10th July at Surrey Rolling Road at Camberley GU15 3DF.

The idea is to have 10 - 20 cars catering for Jaguar XK8/Rs XJ8/Rs and S Type Rs

The day will involve having certain tests carried out on our cars, i.e.: individually strapped to their rolling road machinery so that equations such as power to wheel ratio, exhaust emissions, etc. can be recorded and shown to owners.

They are also allowing us to arrange our very own BBQ whilst our cars undergo the tests which might make it a useful day out. If you are interested, let me know here on the forum. The cost for the road test is £40 per car, the BBQ will obviously be extra. Anyone interested.

I am trying to get Chas from Racing Green to be involved so he can explain how we can get more power from our engines if we require it.

PS I'm away 16th to 21st to Le Mans inclusive so I wont be able to reply during that time

As the good Dr. has suggested in another thread, would 'R' Club members like to go to Santa Pod in July/Aug for a bit of 1/4 mile action?
