We also got an insight into derv tuning. I think I caught 'cancer of the tuning' during it's second run..

Most pics are available in hi-res so holla if you want a copy. Serious apologies to any cars I've missed - it really was hard to keep track of everything.

Again, thanks to all who attended.

Alan will put together the footage and the results into a suitable format. It should prove interesting.

good day out. Pretty pleased with the rolling road also. Bit unhappy about them taken a chunk out of my allooy though lol. what was the highest bhp etc. had to leave early so never got a chance to see much more after.

 

[alan_d]

to be fair to the guys tho (and as I had hoped and expected - they apologised straight away and there was no charge for the roll - yours was the last one at the end of the day wasnt it?)

Im just happy and relieved no one had any terminal engine failures lol!

 

[dee23388]

Yeah, there was no charge. Nothing that cant be fixed anyway. Not too bothered if it can be fixed easily enough. Could have been worse lol. Was a bit unsure of the bumper lol wasn't much room there.

 

[dee23388]

when will ppl's figures be put up or are they? being nosey and like knowing who won what lol

 

[spuddy]

Aye they never charged me either when my clutch give in, so was happy about that.

 

[Jay]

My head is hurting slightly, don't think it's the tenbeer though - I blame the fumes off that turf-burner.

My little autobox pushed out a healthy 139.7bhp (Flywheel), 114-ish bhp (Wheels) and 143.5lbft of torque.

That's a good base to build on. I'll be back to them soon as I get the hybrid on for another run.

 

[dee23388]

must say, think auto-tune was a good place for it to be held at. Very dead on people plus it was close to me haha

 

[robbo]

sonic for the win lol i got a healthy figure and a cracking day out--great pics jay buddy, would of had some to contribute but my camera got FROST BITE and bit the dust lol

***PRIZES***

This was a damn tough day to choose prizes.
It sounds really cliched but the quality of cars was very high.
So high infact that I had to abandon my torque comp, as it
was very tough to choose.

Instead I consulted some of our senior members and sought their advice on who I thought deserved recognition.

I chose Aidan for a number of reasons.
1. He has stuck with his car through thick and thin, dumped endless Yo-Yo into his car, Forged it, and developed it pretty much all by himself.
2. He could very easily have gave up by now and moved on, but he sticks with the marque and the site, helping out with techical querys and never stirs trouble, a true gentle giant in EP tuning.
3. He finds mileage no boundary and regularly partakes in North and South days.

So hats off to you Aidan, I hope it spurs you on further and you deserved it well!

Show and Shite!

Show - None other than our friend the Nanglebadger!
RESTECP for maintaining such a swirl free and lustrous finish in the depth of winter sh1ttyness!

the most Shite encrusted car of the day fell down to two contenders.

Jay - heavily encrusted, clods hanging on to archs, Fingerprint dust still on the car from the breakin, and bird shite on the bodywork. A true heavyweight

Chris - The smashed foglight screams Rat! Plus fresh off a WRC stage look - hats off to you sir!

in the end, the killer combo of bird shite and fingerprint dust swung it in jays favour! Enjoy the car wash - and pour some over yerself you big dirt bird! (only jokin!)


Jap-Imports 4 U Best CT9 Setup.
Phils K1 rivaling 171.2 BHP setup was a clear and concise winner here, he was knocking on the doors of the hybrid and TD04 big boys. Hats off to the man with the big appetite!
