About time we had our yearly RR day back at motorscope.
I spoke to dan today and about the only date we can get ( before it gets too cold like last year ) , is sunday the 18th of october.
To run on a sunday he wont get out of bed unless we can DEFINATLY bring 15 cars.
As you know , Motorscope use Dynapack rolling roads for both 2 and 4 wd and those of you who have been before will vouch they are pretty clued up.
please start putting your name down if you are going to attend, he recomends booking asap as they are very busy with club days
Price is £35 per car for 2 runs , change for the coffee machine is optional

Matt Cole
15-09-2009, 09:04
Dave dick and dom Cole said they would run so thats at least another two
I'd love to go!
I don't think anyone wants to see a mercedes 240d make an arthritic rolling road attempt though:eek:My five needs its turbo rebuilding and I'm buying another house/ due to move in mid October:crap:.
Just have to see how it goes. If I get the Tubo built I'll stick it in for MOT and have a crack but can't make any promises:sad2:

I'll take that bet, Loser buys lunch?
For everyone?
Cheers Ashy, your a star mate, most people who lose a bet like that would get the piss on, but your willing to put your hand in your pocket for the lads snap, top man! :agree:

I have no problem with that, I wont be losing ;)
Spare seat in my car mate!!
Might have to take you up on that one:agree:
Right the clio lot are having a RR day on the 7th of Nov at RStuning in Leeds so I honestly cant see them wanting to come along to this.
So is it worth either
A, poaching them and trying to drag them along to motorscope?
B, going along with them as they already have 11 names down on there list?
I've beem to RStuning earlier this week and he is spot on, however his rollers are brutally honest and hold the name of "ego busters":)
I'm really easy but just thinking if were going to struggle for numbers it might be worth combining the 2, If people are up for it either me or Ashy could speak to little Hutchie whos organising it on CS

Might be a problem as it was originally sorted out as a 'NW meet' so could be busy as **** .
I'm either way motorscope or RSTuning,think RSTuning is £35 per car for 3 runs?like you say their rollers are 'allegedly'very accurate
TBH motoscope is closer and it was just a suggestion in case we can't get the numbers.
Besides it would be nice to show the N/A the true benefits of turbo power :)
Matt Cole
18-09-2009, 22:38
We have found motorscopes rollers pretty accurate too (as far as rollers go). Really good rollers too.
I'll bring mine to this again:)

whatever you do don't send it as a gift!! It cost me the use of my business paypal account for 6 months. I am told by paypal that each case of "gift" is investigated individually. If it is not a gift then they will suspend you're account, and take an inordinate amount of time to fix it for you :rolleyes:

investigated individually by bots ? :coffee:
I have been using it for a while to pay myself for the shop postage as we bundle the shop stuff in with our own business .Not had an issue so far .I thought I had with one of my personal PP accounts but it wasn't related in the end .
I think this would be a legitimate transaction anyway as it is a payment owed .
Paid, just have to remember to turn up on the right day now :scratch:

lee, investigated by people aparantly. I sent a grand total of £6.82 from one account to another for something insignificant and the whole lot was shut down less than 24hrs later, total lock down :laugh: :sad: I only ever use 2 payment methods: goods, or funds through the refund feature. anyway, rolling roads ... (sorry)
re the magizine, I can email Will @ PPC if you like, suspect it might be a bit short notice though.

You would think of how thin pfc mag is at the moment, our rolling road day would be of interest to them what with a few engine conversions to peruse at and the most powerfull 5 in the country attending!!!:scratch:
Email sent. I've suggested that if it's a bit short notice for them to attend then people could take their own pictures and one of us could write a brief account of the day that Will could turn into an article.
Email back, too short notice to send anyone, but would like to do an "on any given sunday" feature with it if we can supply them pictures and a run down of each car, etc.

Well havent even been near my 5 today as ive been modifying a fekin saab turbo to bolt to jont mouths car. Eventually got it on but the oil return is leaking and the lowest i can get the boost down is 19psi!! Its dark and cold and i'm off to bed. The joys of a c1j.:crap:
Matt know how you feel buddy, I finished rebuilding my car at half nine after its gear box chance.
A big thanks to Ashy for supplying me with a couple of gear box bolts after I misplaced mine.
Oh well see everyone in the morn :)
Good luck guys tomorrow and do not forget to take the video camera and post it up on here.

cheers lads, not long got in, hearing returning slowly.
I've got a few vids, not many, will upload them shortly.
Great to meet up with folk again :)
Cheers for organising Dave.
How did Andy, Dan & Jaffa's motors get on?
Scoff- Stunning stuff :cool:
Sloped off early to deal with a **** load of work, gotta earn some pennies to pay for tweetie to grow some wings me thinks :laugh:
Yeah great day as always!!
Big thanks to Bob the AA man who turned up to fix my 5 for me but didn't even bother getting his tools out after a quick assesment of the situation.
Happy with ny figure of 257bhp... Thanks for the lunch Matt, very tasty butty and the chocolate cake was awesome :)
Scoff your car nearly made my ears bleed :smokin:
Tested the ECU when I got back and its fair to say its fried, looking forward to seeing the DVD!!
Ashy (AKA Rats-nest Tuning)
So it got back in one piece :cool:

18-10-2009, 20:58
Awesome day, just awesome!!:D The 5 did me proud with a cool 251.8 bhp and 257 lbft of torque!(max torque at 3224 rpm). Max power was at 6500 rpm were my limiter was set to and it was still making power!! (Mr Ash forgot to mention that!!):D A bit more boost and it would of done the job i think!!:D Thanks to Dave SBS for organising the day and Motorscope for as always the hospitality. Best of all as always the top top people from the club who made it the day it was.
Very chuffed! :agree:

Coolio, Yeah I had tried to run my data logger whilst it was on the dyno be it was playing up!! I would of been able to see what the EGT's were doing then!
some video's, apolgies for the big files, but I wanted to keep the quality half decent.
the operator told me that my car had maxed his dyno out at 155mph in 4th gear.

There are of course more but i'll put them on here when i have more time ^_^
Hope to see some of you at Oulton Park on the 13th Nov if i can get time off work!
jessop, great pictures :)
thanks to miller too for the drive in emma's lpg car, first lpg car I've driven. if only all gtt's where as responsive as that.
Cheers for a top day lads, nice to put names to faces. Some real nice cars.
Had a moment of realisation on the way home, noticed my extra thick super plush car matts were jammed under my throttle (between the pedal and the stop) causing me to lose at least 10mm of pedal travel, so even happier that I made 258 on 90% throttle Ha Ha Ha;)
Glad your getting sorted Ashy at least with it happening this late in the year you could maybe embark on a winter rebuild/rewire and get it all prepped for next year.
You'll have to post the flame on vid up when you get it.
Looking forward to next years wonder who'll be buying lunch though? :)
Some good vids and pics there.
Steve
Had awesome day:agree: roll on the next one:)
What a cracking day, thanks Dave for organising it:agree:
I got home about 9:30 after stopping off at Dave's for an hour or so. I was well chuffed with the results for Emma's LPG car, it made 186 bhp and 162 lb.ft at 16psi:D it makes all the work worth it:cool:
When i got in, i had a look through my data log and as we all suspected the boost reading was 3psi high.
I will add my power graph tomorrow when i get home from work:D
It was good to see everyone again and i am looking forward to the next event in......2010 for me:cry:
Chris:)
And Scoff any time mate, if you want you could run it up pod next year.....show us how its done:D

Aye shame you weren't there chief. Although in your absense the slag didnt blow up, loose oil, eat its own arse etc!! The down side Robbo didn't seem himself! Almost like he'd lost a leg or something...:D
Track slag did pretty good tho!:agree:

Silly question really... :scared:
Its official that was the most expensive RR day I've ever been too.... ECU is dead beyond repair! New ECU & Loom on order might aswell get some bigger juice squirters and blower whilst I'm on too :)
Still I got a free sarnie for my trouble :agree:

Out of interest what would you need to trap at with 550?
Andrew Cooke

according to the article, somewhat in excess of 123mph :scared:
your table stops at 320hp, what HP figure does the calculator give for 132mph?

Looks like the writer of the article was good enough to supply a link to a reputable calculator :D He also talks about how you shouldn't pay much attention to RR results :p
I should add I think I can do better than 132mph, thats a 1/4m spent on boost maybe only 60% of the time.

No where in that article does it mention the effect of "% time on boost" on trap speed :laugh:

according to that table assuming your car is about 900kg? you should be aiming around 152 :eek::eek::cooter:

No, that simulator deals in wheel HP figures only. I also don't think it's overly accurate at those speeds either since drag and other factors become drastically more important to a good estimate. I use a better piece of drag sim software to decide on gear ratio's, shift points and the like. I already know how much power the car has, unfortunately it is not quite 550hp. Knock 100hp off that and you're somewhere close. ;)
Matt Cole
20-10-2009, 21:54
a 900 kg car with 551bhp would trap at 152mph according to the calculator. Scoffs car maxed the top speed of the rollers out at 155mph? Nice:agree::D
