right then people a group of us have orgonised a rolling road day next sunday (31st aug ) at XO in gateshead

i no some people have gave mixed reports on them but we are going so if any of you want to pop down to spectate or run there car feel free

 

Would n't mind popping down to be a spectator, where exactly is it ???

 

thats a good question

i dont know at the min i will google it & see if i can find it

 

If its the Jap rolling road centre-in the valley???

Pass the angel, take the slip road off. All the way around, go along to the first small around about...double back on yourself. Pass the bus stand, first left.
Travel about 200 meters, taking the left after you see the metal supermarket sign up on the left hand building.
Then turn right...that is of course if thats place. Then your there.

I asked them if they carb tuning-"huh", nope"

 

Unit 382e Jedburgh Court

There is quite a few of us on, fancy running the Ibiza?

No mate anything you want.

the people from round boro pool & stockton are meeting at wolviston services at 8am to travel up think the day starts up there around 9.30 10.00 for the people closer to the place

 

how much is it a run? is there a prize for lowest power of the day haha. i will win hands down.

 

nah doubt it, want it checking over before i put it on any rollers or boot it

 

its Ł30 to get a run

nah not worth blowing it up for the sake of a rolling road printout, you forget its been stood for a year, once its been checked out then ill take it on the rollers somewhere

 

lol ok will you be able to keep up on the way there lol wenny will be setting the pace in the german motorway muncher lol

 

.......it's only at team valley..........thought these cars were fast.........

ssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhh we will be sticking to the speed limits all the way

ye right lol

 

i hope XO jokersport dont blow any of your cars up

 

im coming in the diesel but im in

 

you had a bad experience there pal, ive never been before

 

i havent but my best pal has and i have heard of plenty other bad reports.

 

ahh right, i know mine will be fine and so will the nail van as they cant drive them any harder than i do lol

 

pete knows my mate with a r33 skyline he knows the crack it was at croft for the durham/derbyshire show and got a 3.9 0-60 blacky knows it aswell he done that time with all of 320 bhp according to XO's rollers.

well it was 320 after they had there hands on it. and they didnt even check his spec sheet what they gave him just killed it on the rollers.

lad on mlr took his evo 5 down to ask what they could do and got told they would do him a pakage of exhaust, filter, fuel pump and chip that would give him 460 bhp on stock engine.

 

here's that post from mlr i was on about

never, seems a bit shit, my diesel should be 250bhp and 350 ibft so ill see on sunday, the van should be arround 400

 

where you`s all meeting up lads?

 

not telling u......................................... ....p.s i've told blacky that i've been to xo before and the rollers were shite............mine made only 25psi i think..........instead of 30

 

a lot of us are from around boro hartlepool stockton area so your probably better off meeting us there

 

ye we are only going for power runs not setups so i cant see them abusing any of the motors more than we do
