    5th Feb: EFI-Parts open day & "RWYB" rolling road day

    Hi folks,

    I've been putting off the idea of organising a Renault-only RR day or the likes at my place because I don't want to be seen as someone who is taking the club for all it's worth. It's happened in the past with other guys and I respect the club enough to not want to lean on it too much for business purposes.

    But, I thought the forthcomming open day / run what you brung dyno day might be of interest to a few of the locals and maybe some further afield if they fancy the treck! I need to try and generate some interest in the new dyno services and this seems like a sensible way of doing it. Plus, I'm brassic so could do with the income

    If you are involved with other Renault clubs and/or marques then please do post this up on their forum also.

    ----------------

    EFI-Parts, Unit 16 Dewar court, Astmoor industrial estate, Runcorn, Cheshire, WA7 1PT

    Hi all,

    I'm holding the first EFI-Parts open/RWYB dyno day on Sunday the 5th of Feb starting at 10am.
    This post has gone out to a few select performance car clubs and circles so it's a chance for a day out to visit somewhere new and to talk cars with other serious enthusiasts.

    Available on the day, in a first-come-first-served fashion will be 2WD power runs with basic diagnostics - IE boost and AFR plotting. The dyno is a modern SuperFlow AutoDyno capable of holding 600hp+ (1100hp theoretical). Both FWD and RWD are welcome. In keeping with a typical Club rolling road day the running will cost £30 per car and typically consist of 3 back to back power runs. Minor (read "fast!!") adjustments are allowed between runs and printouts provided at the end.

    On request I can monitor for knock or charge temperate, etc, depending on how much free time exists on the day.

    Especially low cars should bring the tools required to remove their front bumper to aid strapping. High powered FWD cars should remove the front bumper so that we can strap the car even tighter to avoid slip.

    More information can be had from the website:
    http://www.efi-parts.co.uk/northwest-rolling-road.php

    Please feel free to distribute this post amongst other serious owners clubs and groups - Thankyou

    Tea/Coffee/Biscuits available on the day, along with any parts that you may require normally found on our webshop. There will be some cash discounts on wideband kits, ECU's, sensors, water injection kits and other stock.

    If you would like to register your interest in attending or if you have any questions or concerns please feel free to get in touch.

    All the best, Chris.

    Cheers, and thanks Matt, I'll let you know if anything crops up. Hopefully it should just run as a normal club RR day but without the deposit system, just a list on the day and run in whatever order people add their names to that list.

    Thanks for the support lads, much needed I asure you

    Car or no car, come along for a brew and chat if nothing else.

    Rob, on a personal note I'd be interested to see how well I can make the honda stick to the dyno so it would be great to see you bring that.

    Phil, yes mate, not the place for 6 month olds!! You know me, not adverse to the late evenings so feel free to head up anytime.

    Hopefully I'll get one or 2 of the big HP Vauxhalls there that I've been involved with, something different to look around.

    Yes mate, and if I were you I would be!! Lol these were my first kids so it's defiantly been a culture shock to say the least. If you have had kids before you will probably find it not all that bad, definatly presents it's own issues tho. Lots of things that are easy with one baby suddenly become difficult with two! Good luck.

    And apologies for the Hi-jack Scoff.
