Another Dyno Day - return of the R's and 2.4s!

Post by Peter255 » Mon Jan 14, 2019 8:18 am

Hi all,

Just judging interest in another dyno day after the successful one last year.

Thinking of using Surrey Rolling Road (based in Farnborough) again for another set of pre-booked power runs. It costs £40 each and takes circa 15mins per car.

Thinking of one Saturday morning around peoples availability.

You get a print out of the power run showing fuelling, and power / torque across the rev range. A great way to check everything is running right, over a free cuppa. :tu:

Pop your names down if interested. It would be great to get some more 2.4s and R's along this time after a host of 2ltr Atoms last time. Some Nomads would be good too. :vroom:

[mention]Sir Nick[/mention] up for a re-run?

That sounds very interesting, I'm up for it. My previous car, s/c Atom 3, always felt quick and the factory always thought it was a good'un, but this feels a good bit quicker, so yeah, intriguing. Of course if it didn't make 350 or thereabouts I would then have a problem, maybe it's better not to know...

2.0 3.5R - the last one (I may have mentioned)

Yes i would be up for this in my SC Nomad - but I am pretty busy the coming months so let me know the dates people prefer and I'll try my best.

Alan P 2.0 R
Trigger 2.4 SC Nomad
Sir Nick 2.4 R (from April)

So quick bump on this one as the weather is beginning to improve.

I know Nick's car it getting checked now @ Ariel, but anyone else interested?

Peter 2.0 SC (if the car is not sold)
Alan P 2.0 R
Trigger 2.4 SC Nomad
Sir Nick 2.4 R
IRG100 2.0 SC

I have asked Charlie from SRR for Saturday availability from 4th May on-wards.

We can work out the best date based on what slots they have available, and everyone's availability.

More 2.4's / Nomads would be good...

Heard back from Charlie @ SRR.

How does Saturday 11th May sound to you all? If it works i will get us booked in with SRR.

If it doesn't work for you please suggest alternatives.

Cheers

Close but no cigar. :-\

Can you all do 4th May? It would be good to get Nick's car retested. Or post which up the coming Saturdays you can do and we'll do the most favourable option.

I will re-check with SRR.
