not really as thats 185bhp at 4 wheels rather than 2.

good to see a slow car has more power at the wheels than a super fast fabia has at the fly though

Thanks to everyone for making a great day.
Shame Col and I got beaten by Ford's electronics.

Here's the star of the show, in action.

...You too. Very impressed with your Fabia

Are you coming to the York meet we're having on thursday?

Good to meet everyone

Another vid......

inexeng · 20-07-2008, 08:51

Good to see everybody ! had to go to my "local" didn't I

Shame I had no new car to show off (week too early)
I was pleased with the power o/p's from all the non modded cars

The black fabia vrs
The red mk I octavia vrs
The silver megane
The Primera GT

A great afternoon

Shame about the 3 miserable lads (not Andy) running the dyno
For gods sake cheer up a bit

inexeng · 20-07-2008, 08:58

Lovely Summer isn't it

Makefish · 20-07-2008, 09:46

Really enjoyed meeting everyone, new and old faces alike and many thanks to Matt for organising a successful event

A few highlights for me were...........................

The cop car, obviously

Seeing BryanD again, and in good spirits

Prodding Loz with my brolly

Finding out how much it costs to make a Fabia go fast

Feeling relieved that the Megane 225 didn't upstage the Octy's (but with a remap I think it probably would!)

Having a good nose at Neo's Mazda 3 MPS, v.nice mate

Having enough self restaraint not to buy anything at Awesome

Seeing that cop speachless on his return after his trip out with PP

A quick mention about Lummox, not met him before but you are an all round good bloke and was good to meet you sir

Steve,

It was my pleasure. I've had so much help and Briskoda can be a life saver when there's no work on at work, It was nice to give a little something back and see the enjoyment of everyone there.

I think a Thanks should also go to Awesome for making the day run smoothly although they forgot to press the good weather button but I dont think that spoilt things.

I will put a list up when I get home from work of all who ran on the RR and if you want to add your figures to the list please feel free. It's not a competition to see who had the most torque or BHP or how diesel power is best (because we allready know it is

) it's jus for people to get an idea what's possible.

Dont worry about it mate, it will soon be gone.

The Peak torque was very peaky. My aim is to get that peak ironed out so the torque comes in more progessive and in less of a lump.

Makefish.... I lied about costs, all you need is a 1.2 badge, Cupra front splitter and a bottle of Millers powersport 4

My teeth have now finally stopped hurting after driving the Glanza home.

Thanks to Matt and everyone at Awsome for sorting everything out. That was the best RR day that I've been on.

I think need to get the Octy out this afternoon to de-tox after driving the Glanza.

I did expect a bit more power from the Glanza tbh.. 100bhp on a rollerskate isnt really much these days.

And you should find out what "Glanza" means in japan... maybe its skull rattler or something

I had a great day, along with the debut of my new vehicle

Altho i was cought off-guard very early morning by Sarah and Mark.. stupid me for thinking i was immune to their wallet-emptying power for owning a Jap car

I am still perplexed with that one. Has the owner commented on the results yet?

Thanks as well to everyone - fab day out.

I was a bit alarmed to see what the normal RR costs are now though if you're not part of a group.

CHRIS ELLIS · 20-07-2008, 10:43

Would like to say Matt well done for getting this of the ground and thanks awesome for having us southerners along.

Top day thank you all.

Oh and not bad for a standard octy mk2 vrs 211.98bhp/231.45 ft-lbs torque i'm happy.
