Would be great to see your Murtaya Martin - when is Motorfair on?

Mrk - Dastek Dynos use different diameter and weight rollers to Dyno Dynamics, with different retarder design etc, which is why you are better to compare Dastek measured flywheel power with DD extrapolated flywheel power, and just forget about wheel power, despite what many people believe

Cheers

Hi Rog

it would be great if these guys could stick to one sort of measurement, I was just starting to get used to wheel figures.

HAPPY EASTER everyone

Which roads are you driving through the Pyrenees.If you're local may I tag along?

StormyC · 07 May 2009, 00:44

Im back as Stormy C Re born perhaps.

Smiffy we meet at Pau Arnos for a morning on track then after lunch drive south to Torla, Ordesa etc

Your welcome to join us

Looking 80% that Specie will go on Saturday :-( so I need to find car for the trip, dont think the Focus or Pug will cut it

So come on whos doing the bungy jump then ???

Stormy

TonyG · 08 May 2009, 13:24

Leap off a dam with just abit of elastic between me and my maker? No way! Too many visions of my own mortality these days.

tony1scooby · 08 May 2009, 19:38

I'll second that motion Tony. If I'm ever feeling suicidal but can't quite decide I might try a bungy jump, until then, no f****** way.

Stormy C, If you can find an Exige in the next four weeks it might be lightweight enough for you and the car to jump.

How come its now 'Stormy C'?? Or do you need suggestions for the 'C'??

Crazy, corpulent, caring etc, etc...!

Labman · 10 May 2009, 12:06

....Charismatic,...

Stormy, I have a nice STi UK with only 'minor' engine electrical problems you can shout and swear at lot. At this rate, I'll be in my sisters Festa so might be me and you bringing up the rear...

tony1scooby · 10 May 2009, 18:07

Charming...

Cool...

Civilised...

Criminal...

Cerebral...

Chubby

4 weeks to go

The Admiral · 10 May 2009, 22:31

The thought of 3500miles through the South of France in summer without aircon, electric windows, stereo, or removable roof proved too much

So I collect my 2008 BMW 330i M Sport Auto Convertible (hard top) next week

Have loved every minute of the 645Ci, but it was starting to need for a few things, so I decided to trade it in today...

Cheers

Rog

p.s. or I might still take the EVO - not sure yet

tony1scooby · 11 May 2009, 18:34

You will definitely look way cooler in the bee-em Rog.

But try and consider other peoples feelings before blasting out the 'Right Said Fred'

It wont be as quick as th Evo round Pau Arnos but will probably be more fun.. Poweslidey kinda fun..

Bring a spare set of rear tyres..

Tony

26 days to go...

The Admiral · 11 May 2009, 19:44

Too late Tony - Right Said Fred CD and See You Jimmy hat all packed

Can't wait now

Rog

StormyC · 11 May 2009, 21:22

Cheeky Devils

C yep one word rolls readily of the tonque, as for chubby perhaps but hey Im testing the Bungy, wanna jump afterwards

Specie went on Saturday

, Deposit goes down on an Exige S tomorrow, pick it up the weekend before we go.

Anyone got some room for a Helmet bag ???

My major concern is getting aroused and not being able to get out of the Exige

terryb · 12 May 2009, 00:58

StormyChav - that's what it stands for

Rog - what's the matter with you - you need a car like this....

Labman · 12 May 2009, 11:42

What's the thoughts on tyres for EB09.
I was going t replace them but just checked and I don't think I need to.

I've got the following
NSF - 4.9
OSF - 4.3
NSR - 5.7
OSR - 4.7

I might swap fronts to rear, but I think they should do for the trip. they are the same ones I used for EB07 afterall

25 days to go,...

......S**t...quick, pass me those spanners!

NeilP1 · 12 May 2009, 22:08

i have a nice new set of toyo R888's to go on but will i ever find the time car is now off the road with no mot no brakes

Looks Mean

I thought of selling both cars and getting a GTR or 911 Turbo etc, but decided I wanted an open top CruiseMobile to preserve my licence and a turbo-nutter car for track days, so kept the EVO

Compare & Contrast

Rog

TonyG · 13 May 2009, 13:27

Car booked in for final fluids change this weekend. Tyres: about 5mm front, 6mm rears, so may swap them round. Passport-sized photos acquired for International Driving Permit (they're of the 'would you let this man drive into your country?' type). Breakdown cover renewed.
Suppose I'd better get some currency sorted out at some point. Guess I should also do a bit of a shakedown drive beforehand as well - all my road travel recently seems to have been the commute to/from w**k, which isn't exactly challenging...

Thats BFG's for you, loadsa grip and they just keep going, and going and going...... much like a black rubber version of the Duracell Bunny, or is that something else?

The Admiral · 15 May 2009, 19:43

Martin - I went down and got soaked and cold - looks like I'll be doing the same this Sunday at Time Attack

Perfect weather for a convertible. NOT!

Hope you get the Murtaya issues sorted ASAP

Rog

tony1scooby · 17 May 2009, 20:44

Mrk

Great job with the route book, again.

Good information and some awsome pictures... Pas de l'Escous looks like a drive thats gonna get the old ticker thumping and the adrenal gland wide open.

Can't wait.. 21 days to go..

Tony
