Rolling Road Day

[vetteheadracer]

One of our fellow Pistonheaders would like us to colletively come on down and break his dyno.....and all for £35 a go! Bargain.

Here is his email to our beloved Editor......

"I would be happy to set a day aside for a vette rolling road day. Saturdays
or Sundays are the best for RR days. I would need 12 - 15 cars. The price
is £35 per car.

I can do Saturday the 18th of December or Sunday the 19th of December before
Christmas, or any weekend after. However, they are being booked fast!"

Let me know if and when you would like to do this and as ever I will arrange it

Hi,

Since that is the weekend before Christmas, I would actually suggest January the 8th or 9th since i suspect that most people will be Christmas shopping on the weekend before Christmas,

Charlie,

Surrey Rolling Road.

I note the 600HP limit... be careful you don't break it Nigel.

Count me in by the way, for the 8/9 Jan.

(Note - venue is Surrey Rolling Road, see www.surreyrollingroad.co.uk )

Thats at the wheels Think 750bhp to 800bhp at the fly.

Is there room for a viper to join in as they are just down the road from me?

8/9 January good for me.

Any problems with automatics?

Auto's are no problem.

That's good. You'll be able to check what I was told when my auto was run on a dyno some months back - namely that it was putting out more torque than a Z06. Await the result with interest!

[b3any]

too far south for me

[Nath V]

If its open to all then count me in, sounds like fun...

Hopefully my car will be fixed by then, only had it 5 mins and I've already broken something, doh!

Will hopefully find out tomorrow what exactly is wrong and I'll be able to work out how many people wont be getting Xmas presents this year

[vetteheadracer]

Open to all.....(with a Vette )

Nless Vixpy says different......

Does that mean I can’t come in the viper

How about if we bring along the vette for appearances but put the viper on the dyno

[vetteheadracer]

I think Vixpy's last comment covers that one VD!

Are we all agreed on a date yet? I think Vixpy suggested the 8th of Jan which I assume is a Saturday.

[viperdave]

just checking.

Are you going to get Shoebag to bring along the bumble bee so I have some comparison?

8th sounds good for me.

Vixpy If I get time can I pop down on sat to have a nosy at the main PH one, if its ok with you.

No probs

[V7TTE]

8th is ok for me too, as long as it isnt snowing...

How are we doing for numbers Nigel?

[michael79]

8th is good for my two, too

As you can't possibly drive two Corvettes at the same time I can drive that old blue one (the one with the Commemorative stripe) if you need a hand.

[michael79]

Hmm Nice offer but it's not run in yet (18 miles to go )and when it is the first thing I'm going to do is find that b*****d with the black F*rd Lightning who thought he could blow my doors off up the A27 on Wednesday night....
Still, looking forward to the dyno day - that's when the BS stops..
