i'm thinking about organising a rolling road day. I have a couple of venues in my head...

http://www.chiptuninguk.com/chiptuning/frames.asp (in Bromsgrove,2wd only)

and...

http://www.powerstation.org.uk/rolling_road.asp (in Tewkesbury,4wd)

both of these venues have excellent equipment, so the testing side of things would be good the price for these would be slightly higher than usual though (i'm unsure of exact price till i have a number of attendees)

i'm open to any other venues providing they have excellent cooling,and decent location

if interested let me know,and maybe we can get the ball rolling.
i expect the more people we have,the cheaper it will be
I don't want to tread on toes, but I plan to have a big RR day, probably during June. We are awaiting delivery of our Dyno Dynamics set-up. Although it is 2wd, it can graph 1200bhp and we have a reasonable sized fan!!

I haven't actually announced it and started a list, but I have experience of running these days and will most probably look to run 30+ cars on the one day.

However, we are in Norfolk, so this might not affect anything that you guys are planning?

Thanks for that Christian, Like you say, i'm not sure the people interested in going to this one,will go to yours because of the distance.

This is only in the very early stages and unless we get more than ten people it's probably not worth doing.

If it falls through, i might be interested in travelling to your part of the world

tip though.......avoid World Cup match Days

PMSL, thats a good tip, I wouldn't have thought of that, as I don't watch football!!

What we used to say in the past is that to run a dedicated day, we really needed to run 20+cars, that way we could get away with not booking any other work in and make it a good club day.

It's hard to run 30+cars, you need to be on the ball with that!!

Good luck!

Right, i have heard from Powerstation,the available dates are...

8th July or...
any saturday 29th July onwards

i've checked on World Cup schedules for any football fans,the third place play off takes place on the 8th@8pm so shouldn't be a problem if any1 really wants to watch it

let me know how this date suits people,

i will not be booking anything till i have a good number of DEFINITES

come on,this should be a really good day...and it's not just for RS cars too,if you have any car you'd like to run up on the rollers then get signed up
