mikeanics, congleton rolling road day 24/04/2010

[BluntyR5GTT]

right guys just like to start by saying hi and my names Andy i dont own a nova anymore but my first car back in 2001 was a haze blue 1.3sr reg plate g698 aeh, i still bloody miss that car iv owned a 192 bhp throttle bodied mg zr and a fiesta rs turbo since, i know currently own a 1991 tungsten grey renault 5 gt turbo :d

anyway after the success of the last rr day i did at mikeanics im organising another one for the 24th april 2010 we had 18 cars at the last one (would of been 21).

its a good way of seeing what your mods have done or even seeing what your running before you start to mod your engine, mikes rollers are by far the most accurate i know of.

runs are £25 complete with a printout :thumb:

Hmm, tempted stick mine on. Last time i went Mikeanics his rollers seemed quite accurate too!!

[BluntyR5GTT]

yeah you should come along i personally know mikes rollers are very accurate he has them calibrated every month or 2

[andybishop]

Alright fella, as said, may well come along if I have the Nova Back on the road by then, but could do getting it setup before hand to stop the engine management light coming on.

[BluntyR5GTT]

awesome andy would be great see you and the little local legend nova up there :)

You know that this is only a power run, not a set-up session

[BluntyR5GTT]
