Default TOTD Rolling road day

I had an excellent day being a spectator and generally catching up with people who i havn't seen for a while Some great cars there and some large power figures produced which impressed me and generally made it a good day out

Cheers to TOTD (Chris, Kester, Andy etc i forget all their names ) for making us all welcome

Love the look of Alex's Mini GP and would be very tempted to have one over my Focus RS. Also love the look of the white Focus RS. I was shocked at how Garys evo nearly climbs out the rollers when on full power, that would have scared the pants off me if i were in it on the rollers.

A few pictures i took on the day :

i'll post one of Rosie's "point and shoot" moments up for her (not the one you want ) If you can beat the price Linsay has offered not to post the picture then me might be able to do a deal

Hope Chris dont mind, but its quite a good picture :

Scooby Slayer - The one I took down made 373.5hp and 375lb ft

It makes a touch more boost on the road though so it may be slightly more powerful but for the age of the engine I was impressed

Nutters and Dingys cars were awesome, both look awesome and iirc Nutters made some good power

Good to see everyone there, shaem we didn't get to bring the proper sounding nova along ! next time though

I took a 3 door down there mate, its not mine though, I have a Mk2 and a few novas, nova engine was out of the car though so couldn't bring it but it has enough power to pull away from the 3 door which gives you an idea of how well it goes oh and its a na engine too

The 3 door done better than expected tbh, its a 30k old engine so it was quite suprising yet pleasing that it made what it did, with a new turbo it would back where it should be I'd think

3 door spec is :

Harvey Gibbs 400hp spec

Long studded 200 block
Low comp
Ported cylinder head
T34.55
Light blue injectors
Level 8

Was 400hp and 420lbft on the dyno 6 or more years ago so not a bad result at all, its now runs a 3.91 cwp which makes it much more exciting to drive
