[Sep 17, 2016] Cliosport Surrey Rolling Road Day **Now 9am Start** (Farnborough)



@James5_GTT @Fletcher @green @Budgie @Luke @Sir_Dave @Martin. @just-that-ek @Jimmyrallye @AlexW @GrahamS @MarkCup @Ricardos @Potatoes @Gareth

Plan for Saturday is to get the first car on rollers 9.15am. We will start with the rwd and awd cars then move on to fwd. Any rwd or awd cars that arrive later will be grouped together and done either in the middle or at the end.

Thanks for paying your £10 deposits. It's going to cost £35 per car leaving £25 to pay on the day (apart from Ricardos who paid a £20 deposit).

Very grateful for a RWD start :) means I don't have to worry about my car being up to temp haha!

I'll let my cousins know.
 
Tim - sorry bud, I've got to bail on this, the weather's likely to be rubbish & I've been off work sick for a few days now :rage:

I'm picking up some Clio related goodies at 9am so will be there for about 10am. I'm fwd so hoping I don't c**k up the schedule

So how it usually works, is get there whenever, RWD and AWD go first, as the rollers need setting up differently..

Run those, then swap to FWD, and get in a queue tbh. They all get done, doesn't take long..

Pop over and say hi mate, everyone will be friendly..

Anyone get any pics of the front plateless M3 on the rollers?

My camera is dogshit, and I was too preoccupied making sure the diff didn't fall out on the rollers. :)

Thanks for the thanks guys, glad most had a good day.

I will organise another rolling road day for January or February.

Uhoh, bad news then!

Gutted I didnt go!

@TimR26 will you be doing the list of results like you did last year? (I think)

Yes, I've got all the results, photos, and videos so will post up a thread tomorrow morning.

Thanks for organising the day Tim, thoroughly enjoyed it, especially after my run. Was good news for the cup today, it made more power then ktec claimed! Hilarious amounts of oil coming out the back. Not bad considering the engine and ECU came out of another car.

A great day with great mates.

Was a good day, shame mine had a massive fueling issue and the run was aborted. Got mapping booked in a few weeks so look forward to the next one :)

LOL low 217bhp power run solved I think.

I had the car up on stands today in order to diagnose a front suspension rattle...while under there I thought I'll just check the boost pipe clamps. All of them needed a slight pinch up, one quite a bit.

Looking at the data from yesterday the car reached peak boost early on as it normally would but then it just tailed off rapidly. A session this evening with the logger seems to show it holding on to boost much higher and for longer now.

I think it was simply a boost leak...it certainly feels a lot keener now.

When's the next one @TimR26!
