#FINISHED# - Rolling Road - EuroTec - June 2010 - YES!!!!!!

Postby arranj » Thu Mar 04, 2010 6:58 pm

A question for all those that are attending. Do we get the rolling road again or not?

If they come - obviously it's entertaining for a lot of people, a focal point, etc. But it does take up a fair bit of space, is noisy, and we need minimum numbers to get them to come.

Assume it's going to be about £40 for a go on it (free to watch!), can you just say here if you would do it, or if you any comments against it?

Thanks!

To get the ball rolling, I am firmly on the fence regarding noise/space etc., but if they came I would put mine on it, because I didn't get a chance to do the DeLorean last time.

I'll do it if my engine is in in time, so 90% sure I will. I think Shane said he wants it too.

That is a bit too steep for me. My D 'feels' powerful enough. No need to prove that. But I might change my mind later on!

I would love it there !!

I def won't have had my turbo on by then (due to housey projects) but could use my unchanged car as a benchmark to see if I get the same result as last time !

I think it really added a lot to the event to have it there last time - the question is how many of the people who dynoed their cars last time would want to do it again (some I imagine) compared to who didn't last time but would this time.

Rob - it's not just about knowing what your car is putting out, but tweaking it so that it's running at its absolute best. Definitely worth it if you haven't done it before in my opinion :D
