Following on from the discussions around the last Dyno Demon Day, I've organised a "compare and contrast" event at the following location;

http://www.ricwood.com/

This will be on Saturday, 4th April 2009. Cost will be £35 per car for the same service that we currently get at DD.

Oh and they have a set of Dastek Rollers...

Start time: 9.00am.

I'm going to be out of circulation for the next 3 weeks or so but should be back on form a week or so before this so apologies in advance if I don't answer any questions straight away.

Put me down Craig please.

Put a "heavy pencil" on this date for me as well please Craig as I will probably still have the Coupe then & may have changed my settings in the meantime.

Fuelling check, boost check, power and torque measurement

hi.

cheers

Put me down as a provisional, I want to get a second opinion on the advice from DD before I do another club rolling road to save another anti climax, so if I can get this sorted and things go well then I'll certainly attend this.

I've done loads of tests on the car since that last session and I still cannot find a single trace of clutch slip.. hmm...

It won't be clutch slip, there was next to no load on the dyno hence why the runs only took a few seconds to complete.

I'm glad you've said that, now I feel a bit better.

I don't see how it can be slipping - brand new Helix Organix clutch (full kit) fitted by Motormech, one of the leading specialists in the country, only 3 weeks before the dyno. Unlikely to be a faulty unit, and even more unlikely to be a mistake made by Paul. But I would like to get a second opinion to put my mind at rest, it just seemed odd that some of the other cars were able to put down 300+ bhp but mine could only run to 4,000 revs. I would've expected around 300 bhp (the run was showing around 300-305 lbs/ft torque before the test ended) so curious as to why mine 'slipped' but none of the others.

Shame I'm not a bit closer to your place Flea, I'd be there in a shot

Like Ive said before, Probably slipping on the rollers. I do not like twin rollers for this reason. Much better with a single roller system or Hub Dyno.

Andy.

It will just be the tyres 'slipping' on the rollers, you really do need to get a fair amount of heat in the tyres - especially with high power FWD cars.

hi i am definately interested in coming along if possible, so pencil me in and as long as nothing major comes up (or goes wrong!) i will be there.
thanks

OK guys - this is now this coming Saturday.

Every time I've tried to organise one of these I've used timeslots for people which normally don't run to schedule after the 2nd or 3rd car so, can everyone please make sure that they're there by 10.30am at the latest. I'll run timeslots up to that time then it'll be first come, first served.

Payment is £35 per car cash only on the day.

If you're unable to attend, can you please give as much notice as possible.

Due to health issues, I'm not getting on here as much as normal so apologies for any delay in replying.

May have to drop out of this due to shearing a wheel nut earlier today. Not sure i can get it fixed in time.

Don't suppose it's safe running circa 300bhp through 3 wheel nuts!?

did you fix it mattm

1) MABR - Confirmed
2) Porkypaul - Unable to attend
3) Mona - Unable to attend
4) Kay2 -
5) Nigel - Unable to attend

8) Yourwinner -
9) Clay99 - Unable to attend
10) cowboy - Confirmed
11) bigtop - Unable to attend
12) Metalste - Unable to attend
13) Lucifer - Confirmed

Guys, so far only 5 of us are confirmed and this is taking place tomorrow?

We'll need more confirmations for this or the price will likely go up or the worst case scenario is that it won't go ahead.

I've left a message for Ric to contact me so I'll try to check on here later and update. In the meantime if your name is on the list or you want to be added, can you please update especially if you can't make it so at least we'll have a clearer picture and can make a decision.

I won't be there. Can't risk running with a sheared wheel nut.

hi.
sorry my internet is playing up and havent been able to get online.
having trouble with the coupe, still in the garage waiting for mot so wont be able to attend tomorrow.
dont know when im getting my car back so il have to leave it
sorry
Bigtop

I'll be there tomorrow but wasnt planning on running my car, If im needed to make the numbers up then put me on the list

not going to make it - my radiator split on Wednesday - booked in at Motormech tomorrow for a new one

i've got loads on over the weekend ,things i could be doin tomorrow ,so i'll have to cancel as i dont want to run the risk of finding out later tonight that the rr isn't goin ahead .
sorry to be a let down

Guys, I've just spoken to Ric Wood Motorsport and this event is now CANCELLED.

I'll hopefully be re-organising for July / August time, once I'm out of hospital / rehab but I will be asking for deposits next time.

Well at least I'll definatly be able to make the next one!

so will I!

Thanks for the efforts with the NWRR days MABR - apologies for not getting back to confirm sooner; I've been a bit distracted recently. Maybe by the time you're back on your feet I will be up for the RR either still with my Coupe or it replacement - but will be up for another run in the Summer hopefully.

Hope all goes well for you with your treatment mate - get well soon buddy.

yep, all the best Craig
