I just got my first Scooby a couple of weeks ago, shame I hadn't seen this thread earlier, would have liked to put my name on the list! Am goin away this weekend now so can't go Will keep ma eye out for future events though. Carl I reckon I met you before, I recognise the car, did you used to have an RS Turbo? I think I bought some front springs off you a few months back?

[Carl Davey]

Chick, that be me i reckon. Charlie wasn't it? Did you ever get your project finished mate?

Jools, i'll have to confirm Andrew Whitelaws attendance for the morning session but will update the thread asap. Same goes for Mr Wood and his Evo VII but i can't see any reason why they shouldn't run.

I'll do my best to get there for 10am (hangover and all) to log the results.

[Russs]

<< but Gavin will be on his own; apart from me helping where I can. >>

Gavin will not be on his own

Nice to see you have a tidy running order sorted out

Was getting a little worried about shifting the rollers and fans around for every car

[Power Junkie]

That looks like a good order! I cant wait to do it now

[Chick]

Yeah, that's me Carl, I still haven't got it on the road yet, I rebuilt the whole thing and got as far as getting the rebuilt engine in it until I ran out of money/time and I sold the engine off to a mate that has a van with an RS engine in it. I still got the rest of it and am intending finishing it and selling it. I got myself a tidy MY99 UK turbo now, only 40K on the clock and not a scratch on it (yet!) Lookin out for a few bits an bobs to tart it up a bit too. Will get it on the rollers some time too, shame I can't make it to this event though, all the best for the day m8.

[Grumbler]

i had my name down on the list but i have not been given a time. is it ok if i go in either 1 or 2?

[scuba dou]

Mucho apologies Grumbler now added to group 2 with the classics.

OK folks some news regarding group orders for the day. Please note that this event will be a first for Wallace Performance and myself (as having organised it) so be gentle with us. Looked at the requests I have had and tried to accommodate people best I can. We hope to manage 4 cars per hr and Gavin Wallace does want to spent time with the drivers explaining the RR system to them in detail, so I have gone for groups so that several drivers can attend at once, rather than as individuals.

Ignore this

Managed to get hold of a van for tomorrow afternoon instead of Sunday so still free for this!

[Russs]

Sorry, should have introduced myself properly the 1st time

I am the rolling road operator as of 1st October, but will be around on Sunday just for you guys

Gav, Neil and I will be there all day, so if you have any questions please feel free to approach any of us and introduce yourself. We will be nice, I promise

One request - can you all please make sure your cars are warmed and ready to go when your allocated time slot comes up?

We have alot of cars to fit in and if we have to warm them up on the rollers it will take up too much time.

Marc had a good point about mud flaps, some of you guys like your flaps big

As for splitters etc, clearance is unlikely to be an issue - with this this type of dyno bed the wheels sit more "on" the rollers than "in" them.

We will be careful anyway.

I'm sure it will be a good day, I'm certainly looking forward to it

Cheers

Russ

[Wooosh]

going "in" with mudflaps is OK, coming "out" will be the problem as they can get snagged under the tyre.

[Russs]

<< going "in" with mudflaps is OK, coming "out" will be the problem as they can get snagged under the tyre. >>

Marc demonstrated this very well the other day. His tape worked a treat.

We will try to have some at hand in case his runs out.

[Boyakasha]

Hi Russ, looking forward to Sunday. I'll be poping in tonight as I believe Gav has some goodies for me.

As Russ said, if you tape the mudflaps up at the front then they will not catch. Need good tape and make sure under your sills/Mudflaps are clean and dry so the tape will stick. It's not a lot of effort that could save you some grief

PS Look out for Russ, he likes to run big power under disguise

Marc

[Russs]

Cheers Marc.

Goodies?! Intrigued..............

Hope you all enjoy the karting on Saturday too, I'm jealous

[Carl Davey]

Russs, is this the same C20LET Russ whose manual i 'stole' some scans from?

Callum is adamant he isn't running his Evo on Sunday so probs best to scrub him from the list for the time being. Just away to call Andrew to double check his situation.

What?! Me?!

Allow the only UK copy of an extremely useful engine manual into the public domain?!!!!

Hi Carl

Get your Evo mate to come along anyway.

I'm sure when he sees all the other cars run his mind will be changed.

He certainly won't have a complaint about the cooling fans

[Carl Davey]

Cool! You'll have to show me around thee Cally Russ. Still got a big soft spot for the ol' C20LETs and i've heard your isn't a bad example. If you're taking it up to Aberdeen of course?

I'm pretty sure Callum will run once he's seen the other cars go on but he's pulling every excuse out of the hat at the moment lol...

[Numptie]

[DEVLIN]

Numptie , have you destroyed any timing gear recently

[Numptie]

<< Numptie , have you destroyed any timing gear recently >>

[MacLeod]

Hi all. Sorry to say that I was away for this event otherwise I would have been along myself.

How did it all go?

Is there going to be another event held or any kind of SIDC discount available for individual bookings (I think the price mentioned for that was £40?)
