Rolling Road Day - Street Racers Loughbourough August 9th

[windy_mx6]

I've collected together a selection of cars and owners for a rolling road session at Street Racers, Loughborough on Sunday, August 9th.

They can do 2wd and 4wd cars and the price is £35 per power run unless I can get 15+ cars, then its £25 per run.

I'd like to throw this open to everyone on here who might be interested. A local car club (Charnwood car club) got 29 cars there a few weeks ago and it looked like a good day so if you are interested please post on here.

So far attending we have

Stu - Mazda MX6 2.5 v6
Dave - Mazda MX6 J-spec
Rob - Mazda MX6 - 2.5 V6
Slater - Mitsi EVO 5

Numnuts - Ford Probe 2.5 V6
Dippy - Ford Transit
Andy - Subaru Impreza
Daves mate - Honda Integra

So theres a real mixed bag but anyone is welcome. Its a good way to see how well your car is running and where to make improvement or just for bragging rights

Feel free to show your interest, thanks

I'll try throw an Audi 80 into the mix

[windy_mx6]

Excellent, where are you from mate?

[mcdjl]

Loughborough...keep meaning to get to one of the local meets but theyre all too far away, or on thursday which seems to be a busy night for me.

[JimexPL]

Any room for a Land Rover? I'm pretty sure that it runs lean at the top end (4.0V8 on SU carbs), so a RR run would be good to find out by how much. It will also be interesting to see how much hp is lost through the agricultural gearbox.

[windy_mx6]

great, whats the Audi 80 you have, Quattro?

[plasticpig]

Are these the guys who used to be in Thurmaston?

[Nitro...]

I'd certainly be interested as I'm only 20 mins away.

996 TT X50.

Everyone is welcome chaps. Have a look at what CCC turned up with a few weeks ago!

I've taken deposits off most people via paypal or bank transfer as its not fair on the others if 1 person lets the side down.

My email is [e-mail] if anyone would like forther details or my mobile number.

Cant wait to see what turns up!

[windy_mx6]

PlasticPig, i'm not sure mate but you could be right. I got them recommended from CCC but when I looked online most people were talking about their place in Leicester so maybe they have 2 branches now.

The Loughborough branch is in Quorn.

I wish....nope just a plain 80 (1.6). Maybe as many as 100 horses all of which are doing their best to escape above 5krpm.

[windy_mx6]

lol, we'll see on Sunday 9th mate.

[windy_mx6]

Just taken a deposit from a Mazda Mx3 owner for the rolling road day so thats 1 more to the list.

Anyone else up for it?

[Pixel-Snapper]

I'd be interested in popping alone with the camera to do some photographs if people were interested?

No car to add to the mix but will be with JimexPL in the Landy Rover.

[windy_mx6]

Your more than welcome mate, should be a laugh.

I havent hear from the lad with the Landy, is he a definate?

[Pumajay]

we had 2 landys at the CCC meet and they fit on just fine, shouldnt have a problem getting them on!

[16v_paddy]

Oooh, I'd like to come to this would be nice to see what my freshly rebuilt engine is churning out

I'm just up the road in Nottingham

ETA Mine's a clio 1.8 16v

what time are we looking at? iv got work from 11 but would like to bring the spitfire down to see what it really is giving out once and for all!

[windy_mx6]

Hi lads, Gordon said he'd like to kick off around 10 but I can try and wangle it a bit earlier if theres lads that need to get away.

If any of you need to leave quick you can go 1st, i'm sure the others wont mind.
