hi guys i was planning on taking my car up to wgt auto developments in cheshire at the end of april to see what power she is putting out after the few little mods.
anyway iv now decided to make this an official meet in conjuction with some of the guys over on facebook.

anyone who has been to these days before at wgt will vouch for how well organised it is and a great set of guys run wgt and always make us more than welcome and provide refreshments all day.

we will need at least 10 runners to make this happen and prices will be £40 for 3 runs which will include full colour printouts as always.

i will need to pay £100 deposit to wgt to secure the venue for that day so as always id be asking for 10 deposits of £10 and the deposit payers will of course run first on the day and owe £30.

all deposits to be sent to my paypal andrewblunty@hotmail.com as gift with a note attached stating rtoc username/dyno day deposit

also please remember to bring your locking wheel nuts with you as this is a dynapack hub dyno system so bolts straight upto it via your front hubs.


Address:
Unit 12
Valley Court
Sandersons Way
Middlewich
Cheshire
CW10 0GF

hope to get a good turnout and look forward to seeing some old and new faces

iv been in contact with pfc magazine, and they wont be able to make it but have said they are very interested in doing a feature on this as long as we can supply pics and a write up. each one will require
Name
Make, model & reg
Brief engine mods
Expected bhp
Actual bhp
Operator comment
Owner comment

i could print a few sheets off with the above on to use on the day and then send off to pfc along with pics.

Pics wise we need a shot of each car on the rollers, plus an owner shot. Then an opener with everyone stoof togerther – maybe outside the dyno unit.

would anyone who is just coming to attend be interested in doing the above? i can do it but it doesnt give me a great deal of time to do much else.

how are we all getting on guys? are your cars getting to where you need them to be in time for the big dyno day?

im now very confident of mine finally getting its first bit of dyno action since 2011.

anyway i have a proposition for you, one of the deposit payers is having to drop out and has donated his pre paid space to anyone else who is interested?
so that means you would just have to pay £30 on the day.
first come first served but i need ur details asap

BluntyR5GTT
28-02-2014, 06:08
nobody interested in a reduced price run?

BluntyR5GTT
02-03-2014, 04:37
just a heads up to everyone this event is 100% going to be featured in performance french car magazine, and im in negations about getting it featured in retro cars magazine.

so a great chance to represent the club and also show off your pride and joys to a wider audience

BluntyR5GTT
11-03-2014, 06:04
hows everyone whos coming to this getting on with there cars? is there much left to do ? or are you already prepared for it?

also any of you guys that are maybe about coming then please let me know asap if your wanting to run your cars as ill need some info from you before the day to supply for pfc magazine.

we also have a competition running for a free place on the dyno all info can be fount in the link attached below

Loads left to do but hopefully I'll have it all done by the end of the month. I'm missing all this boosting weather! When I click on the link above it keeps asking me to log in again and doesn't direct me anywhere after I log in.

BluntyR5GTT
11-03-2014, 06:41
thats a strange one the link works fine off my laptop and phone??

if it proceeds to not work for you then head to the news and announcements part of the boards and the thread is right at the top on there :agree:

i am with you on missing out on some cracking boosting weather

Its being discussed on the committee pages Casper as we speak buddy. Other options will be looked at and im sure a decision will be made soon determined by the amount of interest we can generate (hopefully more than 9 members running).

Scoff has kindly offered to hold the day up at his place. He can't accommodate the 26th but can do the 27th. He will need at least 10 runners to make it work. Can we start a list of definite runners?

Chrispraider
02-04-2014, 17:39
I`d be still up for this. It may be worth putting a post up on the facebook page as theyre seems to be more action on there nowadays than on here.

02-04-2014, 20:50
:agree: 27th I could do. What's the cost etc. ?

Alex
02-04-2014, 21:15
I haven't asked Scoff but I'd budget on around the same as the WGT day. So about £40 for 3 runs.

Who's running guys?

What's happened to the guys who have already paid deposits? I presume they have been refunded but are they no longer wanting to run?
Usually a good turn out and a good social, a shame there's always low numbers to run.
I may take the van again as over there this weekend :)

Alex
04-04-2014, 15:24
We're not sure Haz. Blunty mentioned he was going to refund the people that had already paid the deposit. That's the last we've heard from him. Hopefully the people that did want to run will stick their names down and run at Scoff's instead.....

Trevhib

it was one from my local motor spares place. used to go through one a month before but replaced the pedal from cgb and it lasted about 4 months. the new one snapped on the pedal side where it enter the car. the bit it goes into on the box the fork thing feels really loose.

Unfortunately I've had to cancel this event guys. We can't really hold a rolling road day with only 5/6 runners, it's just not viable. :crap:

If theres genuine interest I'll happily looking into organising something for the summer. :confused:

Well done matey for putting the effort in. Its gutting when you put your time into organising an event and theres lack of interest. I think we should re-organise with scoff for later in the year, say August? Lets get a list going now with plenty of notice.:agree:
