R/R in the eastern region!

[mystery machine]

was discused last night with some of the eastern dudes in the new year (jan/feb). unsure/cant remeber the venue but these whimps are throwing down a challenge to us possible TV feature as well. this region needs good motors.... are you one of them?

names for a R/R shootout needed.....

[Ronin]

Well by then mine should be setup properly and throwing out around the 280-290 mark, so you can count me in.

[mystery machine]

names and estimates....
ronin 280bhp

copy and paste keep em coming.....

[Tom Williams]

gav can i suggest using PTS in luton for the location perhaps or somewhere in essex?

[mystery machine]

Tom, i spoke with drizz and mark (mwcav) with reguard to getting this off the ground. cant remeber the location but a reputable R/R place was mentioned

[sounds2k]

I thought it was gonna be somewhere in Essex ... would bring the barge along but I doubt it'd get much beyond 200 bhp ... so it ain't gonna be winning anything ... maybe the "most likely to cause sea-sickness round corners" category ? lmao

[mystery machine]

bring it anyway dan. always good to know what is being thrown out at the rears (mine was 182)

[sounds2k]

yeah, I was gonna get it put on the rollers at trax but by the time we'd finished watching the 0-60's, drifting and a mooch around it was time to leave!!

seems to go fairly well (especially compared to the 2.5) so I'm guessing the belt change was done right after all, just want to satisfy my curiousity as to what it is doing TBH, plus it'll give you turbo boys something to snigger at / take pity on lmao

seems to go fairly well (especially compared to the 2.5)

Nice one Dom! Lets get the C16XE or put the C20XE you got in

[MarkW]

Hi all, I temporarily forgot about this!!! lmao

Venue is probably gonna be John Mowatt Motor Engineer's in Pound Lane North Benfleet.

I'ts provisional at the mo, but I am gonna get in touch with TV and see if they want to cover it.

After speaking to Mowatt's its probably gonna be limited to 12-15 cars but I'll keep you advised.

As for BHP, I reckon you lot will beat us!! lmao

I estimate 150-160 bhp for the cally (if I haven't killed it by then!!)

[Dave GSiT]

there's a duplicate thread on the eastern region here - so that's another 5 names to add to the list so far ...

[MarkW]

OK, if it keeps on like this, I may have to think about a change in venue.

Mowatt's reckon on 12-15 cars, I'll have to see if they can cope with more, if not, I'll hunt around.

[mystery machine]

LOL @ mark, exactly what i said earlier, didnt expect it to be so popular... didnt even know we had 8 se members lol, i noticed Kevin Gunner aint posted up yet either

looks like the se sould be renamed the 200+ region

[MarkW]

I'll come along assuming my car doesn't have a disasterous MOT at the end of January like it did this year and I have to spend a week tracking down parts that Vauxhall don't make anymore.
