kloon Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 Craig, I have no idea what a rolling road looks like, let alone put my car on one ! Is it safe enough, i.e. nae chunce of my car blowing up ? [] I've just got a bog standard UK Turbo engine wise but i'd be willing to stick it on the rollers if yer desperate to make up the numbers.
craig mac Posted June 13, 2006 Author Posted June 13, 2006 Kloon There are wee risks i guess but nothing major, the car is just run up on the rollers a couple of times to max RPM......Nothing more really than what you do on the road/track.[] Am sure there are others on here who can add/confirm more for you It does not matter what engine power etc you expect mate, its the taking part that counts and it would be nice to get some others involved. So Kloon to be added nice one m8 see you there 1 Craig Mac2 Dean 3 Philip_w 4 WUZ 5 ken 555 6 herbie 7 RA 95 8 Dean 9 Rossco 10 Gogsie 11 Big Davie 12 Kloon Craig
rossyboy1 Posted June 13, 2006 Posted June 13, 2006 If your car is standard, it'll probably be the safest one run on the day [] Mine has been on about 5 times now with no ill effects. A good operator will monitor how the car is running while on the rollers, mainly listening out for det. If things aren't sounding too good, they should be able to take it off before any serious damage is done.
craig mac Posted June 13, 2006 Author Posted June 13, 2006 675 views? Still we do not have 15 cars folks? All wecome just lets get to the magical 15 or the day will not go ahead......[] Craig
