TomWhite · 28-09-2005, 12:58

Oh dear rich, looks like the little clio is getting booked in for cams!

Even if she does blow, i can get her rebuilt again. She'll always return!

josh263uk · 28-09-2005, 22:42

I would love to come, but think I'm working. Never been to anything like this. Will try to pop out from work, How long/what time will you be there untill??

Sorry read all of the threads, will try to meet at service station at 8 and come for the drive( although its probably less then 1 mile to TSR) and then off to work I expect!

devonutopia · 28-09-2005, 23:19

There from 8.30 onwards really - thats the idea.

devonutopia · 01-10-2005, 16:06

Right - Might have something a little special coming along locally now.

A tuned up 1.8 20vt Golf MkII GTI.

Trying to tempt him to come along.

No-one else coming too? Even matey has said he is going to be putting his own car on the rollers for everyone to see.

No more? Its going to finish a little earlier than expected if we only have a dozen or so.

PJW -VRS · 02-10-2005, 23:47

Hi

Can a rolling road check speedo accuracy ???????

cos I did a 342 round mile trip taunton to Castle donnington and back
on Saturday ....... although the mileage was pretty accurate within a
couple of miles of the AA website .....
I am convinced my miles per hour speedo readings are showing higher
than I am actually doing

That was my first long journey with the Fab vRS and its was a real joy
to drive ..... just had a 5 minute break both ways

I might have my GPS by then - best way to tell is out on the road, although I guess the RR can do it too - If you ask Neal to keep his eye on the speedo when he lets go at the top, and the RR's top speed will be your comparison.

CORDY_SXMAN · 03-10-2005, 11:27

I'd be interested in this, would i be able to come along in my SEAT?

Car: Seat Cordoda SX 2.0 16v

Dr Zoidberg · 03-10-2005, 11:49

Don't see why not

TomWhite · 03-10-2005, 12:04

We'll have to have a 2.0l 16v war! lol

This is open to ANY Briskodian at all, and even other places. Just let me know if anyone wishes to bring a mate or two from another forum.

I hope to be bringing along someone from my SW cruising site too. More the merrier, just add your name to the list. He tells me he has got through 50 cars in a whole day before.

CORDY_SXMAN · 03-10-2005, 13:46

Please add me to the list then. Is this where i put my name for the list? lol

Hi Jason
I am hoping to get there for an hour ...... mainly to put a few faces to names

unfortunatley I have to be else where later in the morning.......
but would welcome the opportunity of a quick trip on the m5 with a gps to verify my speedo accuracy ...... fortunately J 24 to J23 or J24 to J25 are ideal for this purpose
as the distances are only 5 or 10 miles......

Dr Zoidberg · 03-10-2005, 18:50

I doubt I'll be there first thing , but I'll have my GPS with me if anyone wants to test their speedo

devonutopia · 03-10-2005, 19:02

Please anyone who is bringing / invited anyone extra, PUT them on the bottom of the list so I know about numbers by the end of the week. Thanks.

Just thinking of TSR. Ta.

**tfboy** · 03-10-2005, 22:19

I have a very cheeky request to make...

I have received a nice shiny bit of aluminium that I'd like to fit this weekend

I can come along and would like to go on RR if someone can help me fit said bit of metal

If we really get a move on and fit in two hours, could almost leave my car for last one to go on RR and have figures with new part fitted

Your input J would be appreciated, although I gather your shiny bit is different to mine

Dr Zoidberg · 03-10-2005, 22:21

I'll bring a big hammer.

Sounds like we may need one too after reading J's other post wrt the alloy sump guard. I though I posted about it but heyho. Any chance of some axle stands?

After all, those who go on IRC will know a Skoda tech likes using a hammer every now and then

Sorry Jason. Before I hajack your post any further, I'll post a new thread

CORDY_SXMAN · 03-10-2005, 23:21

Just to confirm it will just be me attending in my Cordoba SX. So just the one car next to my name.
My dad is working so cant bring either of his vRS skoda's and my brother has decide to come down in my car.
I dont know how many cars you need, but if your struggling for numbers im sure i could get him to bring his golf gti down.
See u Saturday - Paul
