Dyno Day, Saturday 8 December 2007

Serjames · 10-29-2007, 06:24 AM

Well there was that... yes, AND there was the metre long front right break streak as you joined the A1 off the South Mimms roundabout... :0

Ahhh - there .......

I thought that I set off at a sedate pace for our drive in the countryside.

ChrisMWard · 10-29-2007, 11:10 AM

Don't know about a 320d but I might be able to bring the 120d along. It all depends on time really, would have to be an early run as I've got the works Christmas party in the evening and have to get down to the hotel in Sussex by about 1600 hrs. Any ideas what time it's kicking off?

Regards

Chris

Most likely mid to late morning. If you leave at around 1.30pm you'll be able to get back to Epsom then onwards to Sussex by 4pm. Bring the 120d along - it'd be nice to have a different shape on the rollers. Besides, the engine's the same anyway.

Probably ought to refresh the UK4 one

The Banner ought to mention Uxbridge, and perhaps link to here ?

I'd have a go meself, but A) it would look crap and B) it would look crap

SJ

p.s. you coming ?

The one you've got doesn't look too bad, actually!

Do you still want me to knock one up for you, James?

I can't make Dyno day, because of work, I'm afraid James.

I would like to experience the south of France next summer, but it is still quite early for me to know exactly what I'll be doing & where I'll be at that time of year.

However, I do fancy coming down to London to meet up with you, Tony, Paul et al, perhaps for a bit of Christmas shopping, a nice meal, a drink & a chat!

where are these skids marks?

The lack of anti-shake on the filming is making the plate masking a bit tricky, Carlos, but I'll get it sorted, ok!

As long as I can get an early run in then count me in. Can't bring the 335d as the missus is getting her hair done in the morning for the party and she only drives autos, so it'll have to be the 120d.

No prob - we'll put you on the rollers first, so you'll get a good run and plot. Then whenever you need to just head off for the party.

Chaps,

I hope to do just that. Will have to check work schedule (will have started a new job by then but should be OK), and clear it with the 'Miswah', then I'll RSVP.

I'll probably just come as a spectator though......

mjh93sa · 10-30-2007, 08:13 AM

I'll be across with the cameras as it's the right side of London

Excellent! You going to put your car on the rollers too?

E92Fan · 10-31-2007, 06:47 PM

So is there anyone else interested in coming along to this Dyno Day? James & I don't want this to die a slow uninteresting death as we've gone ahead and booked/confirmed everything with the company.
