    Re: 20th April - midlands rr day @noble motorsport

    I'm hoping to possibly come up to this (all the way from Cornwall) to view a car!

    Be good to meet a few people and chat about 5's

    (I'll be the one in the corner without a Renault lol )

    Re: 20th April - midlands rr day @noble motorsport

    Ha, yeah I'll try and have a chat with a few peeps. Be good to see a nice collection of 5's.

    I don't mind travelling to check a car out if it sounds right. Nice to have a chat with owner and check it over myself.

    The car I'm talking about belongs to Nick Wyse. After pairing a wanted as on the rtoc Facebook page he commented and said he might sell it but wants to do a couple of jobs and go to the r/r day. That's fine with me as again I don't mind waiting it its the right car.

    Incidentally if anyone does know a bit more about his J plate Raider then I'd love to know. He seems to have described it pretty honestly and judging by the pics I've found online it seems ok.

    Anyway sorry, back on topic....

    Hopefully see you there!!

    My engines in and now I'm battling with a few electrical gremlins, I'm still hoping to get it finished in time. If it comes down to the wire can I just head along on the day and pay for a run then? If not I might just head over anyway to meet a few fellow rtoc'ers

    little heads up, we have had 3 and possibly be 4 people pull out of running on the day, so its looking as if this day might not be able go ahead unless we can find another 4 definate runners.

    im going give it the rest of this week see what comes up and if no takers will have to cancel the event and let noble know asap. Obviously any deposits paid will be refunded via paypal.

    Yeah I'll be running. Won't be expecting a massive power output as its pretty standard and only pushing 8psi boost atm but I've never been on a rolling road or to an RTOC event so should be fun. Are you going to be needing a deposit from me?

    no need for deposit mate as they have already been paid, so just a case of turning up and paying on the day

    hopefully you will enjoy the day the dyno days have been a great success in the past

    Re: 20th April - midlands rr day @noble motorsport

    just had this reply back from noble so were all good

    Hi Andy

    Thanks for the heads up, We can run 1 car or we can we run as many as you like , As long as we have a reasonably secure idea of numbers before the day .

    The cost of the runs varies with the number of people.

    1 car is £45.00 inc vat

    Up,to 10 cars is £40.00 inc vat each

    11 to 14 cars is £35.00 inc vat each

    15 cars and over is £30.00 inc vat each

    If you can keep me up to date i can organise our work load accordingly.


    Look forward to hearing from you.

    Best regards Mike

    the best thing i think you can buy in an afr kit from scoff (efi-parts), he does us club members a great deal on the aem kit .

    id imagine your carb would possibly need the 2nd stage enlarging at least but lets see how it goes on saturday

    Dont forget I'm coming too!

    Tonight I'm gonna finish piping the engine and putting fresh fluids in it so I should be there. I don't have breakdown cover so is anyone comin from Telford/West Midlands direction? If so wanna drop me a phone number just in case?

    Mine is completely standard engine wise (i think), I just want to know how many ponies it's lost over the years, go to my first rolling road and meet some RTOC'ers.

    I have to be up dawns crack to get there for 0830!

    Mine is completely standard engine wise (i think), I just want to know how many ponies it's lost over the years, go to my first rolling road and meet some RTOC'ers.

    I have to be up dawns crack to get there for 0830!
