scottish rolling road day

[StevieA ZS120]

was thinking of trying to get a rolling road day set up for around the time when arwilson is going to be over as im not sure how things stand with the likes of the falkirk cruise if there is enough interest ill speak to a couple of rolling road centres and get some prices and dates set up should be a good laugh me thinks:spank:

[arwilson80]

Mine will just be standard though... :sad:

[sduk]

lol a standard 180......same as mine then ;)

[StevieA ZS120]

it will give you the chance to see if your car is running ok with no problems plus a power figure as some will be higher/lower than the 177bhp it was just an idea thought it would beat standing aroung a cold carpark in the middle of november

[sduk]

yup, good idea, id defo come along if only for the banter :D

how much do they cost?

[StevieA ZS120]

depends on how many folk we can get to come along im sure dashfixer in glasgow was around 30-35quid and id maby see bout getting my ecu remapped at the same time as i should have my new zorst and viper kit properly set up by then it would be a good laugh and a meet plus serious and technical at the same time and we could get folk from the zr site along aswell make it a big clan gathering maby even get mg enthusiast magazine to come along and do a feature

[arwilson80]

lol a standard 180......same as mine then ;)

Yeah.....
I guess i have some mods done then... We'll start with 2 extra cylinders. :sly:

[StevieA ZS120]

ill give it til the end of the month and see what interest we have and then ill phone around and get some prices and some dates sorted out

[arwilson80]

OK, but we need dates... ;)

The 2 weekends i was thinking about making the journey were 1st-3rd or 4th Nov, or the following weekend (8th - 10th or 11th Nov)

[StevieA ZS120]

ill look into it like i said if there is enough interest then i will find out more info ie prices and dates and discounts and once booked everyone on the list must pay a 50%deposit to a mod which will be non refundable unless there is a valid excuse for calling off put your name on the list below if interested

If you can get some prices and locations posted up, I may be interested in getting the Wee MGB RR'd to see what reek she is putting out along with BHP.

I hope to get her MOT'd and road worthy for the sun coming out sometime in October.

Did the ZS at Dastek in Fife last year and smoked the place out. He-He! Was only putting out 80BHP though so was a sure sign the tractor was goosed.

[StevieA ZS120]

as soon as we can get at least ten people that are interested thats when we can qualify for a discount so like i said the more names on the list the better

I'll hold off for a bit to see how much i spend while i'm away on holiday. Shouldn't bee too bad as i'll have 1 months pay between them both... :)

[TurboZed]

I hope to get her MOT'd and road worthy for the sun coming out sometime in October.

I'm very interested as I've not had mine on a RR since putting the manifold and de-cat on, so would be good to see what improvements it has made... but I'm not going anywhere near Falkland performance, bunch of pirates! I've had a few mates have very very dodgy experiances with them.

For me Dastec is the only place I'd trust, plus last group day I was at it was £30 for 2 runs

[StevieA ZS120]

falkland just got back to me and it would be 30 quid for one run and a laminated graph showing all of our info ill give dastec a shout ross is that the one in dunfermline

[Maxxed_Ross]

yeah that's the one. Top guys and regarded as the best and most accurate around.

A mate with a V6 Vectra might be interested too depending on dates

[StevieA ZS120]

ross do you have a contact number for dastec i just tried googling their name and no matches

[Maxxed_Ross]

sorry my mistake, it's Dastek with a K not a C lol. oops

www.dastek.co.uk

0845 345 4045

[StevieA ZS120]

cool ive sent them an email based on 15 cars if we can get 20 cars then we would be sorted so ask all your friends the more the merrier i should have my straight thru exhaust fitted by then as well ive also based it on the 2nd of november thats a saturday if that date is ok for people

[Leasky]

takes ages tp get back to you ive orginised a rrday b4 with them last year , you get a quicker response phoning up and asking to speak to gerry he's the top man there

[Maxxed_Ross]

yeah sure it was a guy called Gerry that ran the one I was at, top bloke to talk to

[Robstar]

mmm sounds intresting i might jojn if that ok

[Leasky]

paul wilkings was the guy that delt with rrdays ect but he got sack now its gerry the boss that does it

[StevieA ZS120]

[StevieA ZS120]

If i can make it i'll most likely be just spectating. I don't like red-lining my car, never mind letting someone else do it. :(

[Maxxed_Ross]

I've said already I'm going no where near those pirates!

Keep hounding Dastec... please!

[Z Scotland]

I must say i would prefer Dastec myself..:hmmm:

[KevG]

If the venue was changed to Dastek, then I would take part if it is just Falkland then I'll just stay as I am watching!!
