daves16v 1 Posted June 15, 2013 Well it was touch and go whether I would be attending, the car developed a worrying clunking noise a few weeks back when steering and when pulling off and stopping. Finally found time this morning to get the car up, invest in some torque wrenches and go round checking all mounting bolts underneath for just about everything. The only problem I found was a loose lower strut bolt on the driver side. Took it out for a run and it seems I may have fixed the problem so I will be attending tomorrow.

_Meth 0 Posted June 15, 2013 Still unsure if I can make it or not, the baby valver is still giving me some bizzare knocking when pulling away and steering too! haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 0 Posted June 15, 2013 Glad everyone is excited! Going be awesome. I've just had someone drop out so that means one more space left if there's any last minute takers. could probably squeeze 2 additional cars at a push :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VR6Pete 0 Posted June 15, 2013 Peter, I haven't paid the 5 quid deposit! Is my name deffo down? Cheers Ben No deposits required, sorry should have updated first post. It would only have been required if we were struggling to get the numbers but there has been an overwhelming response to this and the lads at stealth will have their work cut out tomorrow given the numbers who have registered. Full house + more! Just £25 to pay on the day to the rolling road operator and show and shine £3 if you are not a VR6OC member. Cash only for rolling road too :) Time get my head down, early start in the morning ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VR6Pete 0 Posted June 17, 2013 I have the sheets everyone filled in but have had some family time since I didn't get home till 6pm on Father's Day :) Vince is sending me the files from the day so will have all data, temp, transmission loss etc.. Too along with graphs which I will upload. In the mean time here's one from a few years ago I did http://vr6oc.com/results.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stonejag 10 Posted June 18, 2013 Was a good day, thanks for organising! Dave's engine bay really is a thing of beauty :thumbleft: Little disappointed by my numbers - 182.4bhp, 23% transmission loss - but I only got one power run as they fluffed the change to neutral at the end and it measured it all wrong... Good baseline before I do my head work and go for remap though. Nice to see another auto there as well, I think I convinced Ben at least...or maybe it was the roundabout drift that did it :lol: Had a great day out so thanks again.
