As above guys^
I am arranging a dyno day for a friend of mine from a separate car club. We are going to Evolve on the 26th April in the morning. I thought I'd see if any of you guys fancied coming along?
Would be good to see some e30's

What's the run price then?
Power runs or tuning time?

Just standard power runs mate. £40 a head.
Speak to Sal if you want tuning time etc.

Hi Ben
How much is too much dude, but must admit me had a twitchy Butt when she tried to catch me out at about 80 - 90 when i put the power fully on from 5th to 4th with a slightly greasy road,, not really a huge problem if nothing is coming the other way or if your on an airfield, but on a nice twisty A road, boost on song, a fair few ponies trying to escape all at once,
= Bleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep
Am looking for more control over what she already has cos she will soon be turned up,, only another 2257 miles to go before full bars. so don,t want it to become FU BAR,
Few more mods and fettles to be made yet dude, one of them is for myself to be able to control the power that is available, given any condition,,, so i bet you know where it shall be going soon ????
Any ways hows the fridge coming on dude, have you run it in yet or wot
Hope you keeping good dude
Gary

Sorry guys this has been postponed as of this morning. I had nearly everyone drop out on me yesterday

And the car I was going to was written off on Monday.
I spoke to Sal this morning and I am going to arrange it for a later date.
Anyone interested put your names down and I'll see if I can arrange a good date for everyone.
