Evening all, a final list of runners and shameful list of those who haven't got in touch! Also location would be helpful as would times so will do those all too.

The list:
1. Dan320is - ikkle M3
2. d6dph - 325i diesel snotter
3. Turkey - M30B35
4. DHFiS

Then a list of those who not paid but i know are coming or else!

5. penton08 - s50b30 that smells of B.O.
6. Tommy22 - M50 Touring that sounds the nuts now we fixed it
7. Goosiegander - M20b28 (forgive me if you have paid a deposit and i have now put you in the wrong list!
8. Dan320is' Brother in his E46 compact
9. Dodgy Dave with someone elses car
10. JimmyC - if his car survives the track day the day before

That is my 10, if anyone else would like to come then please come on this thread and put your name on the unpaid list as be shamed if you fail to attend.

Jhonno, tighten your cable tied on diff and driveshafts and get yourself there!

The location is Frost Motor Services, Unit 6, 15 Bailey Close, Hadleigh Road Industrial Estate, Ipswich. 9.45am onwards on sunday 13th December 2009.

If anyone is scared by finding their own way thru ipswich then lets get together on the outskirts and go in force, ipswich is a scary place, look at Tom and Penton!
Call me on 07858 151 197 - leave a message if no answer as i am probably busy! Will call you back!
Please email thru the website as not always on the zone for pm's.

Way late I know.... I saw tom during the week and he told me to get my ass down. I haven't been on the 'zone for a while so I didn't know about this :o: . I'm coming over to say hi in a non BM but also bringing an e30 with an m52b28. If its too late we'll just watch and hang out but it'd be nice to get it rolling roaded :cool:

gd day i recon, but was strongly advised not to run due to the oil pressure light starting to flicker...

then on the way home realised found that every time i rested my foot on the clutch or pressed the clutch pedal the pressure light went off, then found a dodgy wire under the dash when i got home! Gutted! :(

Had a great day. Big thanks to Richard for sorting it out for us.

I am still not 100% that the figures were right, Had a chat with a mate tonight who has run there and a few other places and everyone he knows is down on power on that set of rollers.

Still got a healthy 149hp and 147lb/ft (Going by the losses my mates have suffered there it looks to be about stock power) so I am happy enough.

Dans 320is won the noise battle, it was like an audible orgasm. :drool:

Yes, big thanks to Richard. It was an enjoyable day with the usual pee-taking.

As you said Dave, I wasn't too chuffed with the numbers either. I've just spoken to the previous owner of my car who had the car dyno'd three times on different rollers and had much better figures.

Dan, what did she make, and what dyno was it?

Thankyou all for coming and making it what it was, a great day out of the usual quality cars and good natured banter.

Turkey, if you want to do another run then Rindy said he would do it for the group rate just let me know when and i will book it in for you.

Thanks to Rindy for setting aside his sunday to play with us.

Good to see new faces and the old (Nathan - 30 now!) and nice to have a change of scenery despite the cold and rain following me where ever i go!

Maybe once you have all licked your wounded ego's we can do another run, room for improvement boys, get tuning and fettling!!

I'll even fix the diesel!!

Rav & Penton, looking at this logically..............

S50B30 in a 2 door versus a M30B35 in a cab', on paper Penton's combination is faster.

Naughty boy Rav, i havea flywheel for you though!

Back on thread, those who came and braved the cold, what did you think, some feedback would be good to see if it is worth organising another as its not just making a phone call to book it!

All feedback is greatfully appreciated whether positive or negative and if there is anything else you would like from the day then let me know so i can go back to Rindy with comments/requests.

Thanks

Richard
