I have managed to secure a substantial discount for VPCUK members at Gerald Dale Motorsport in Sussex!

Gerald has agreed to let me organise a DYNO day/session which i have provisionally booked for SAT 10th Oct at 10AM

Link to his site is here ... http://www.geralddale.co.uk/

He is willing to run each car 3 times (proving run and 2 power runs, with printouts) for £25! per car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But............... and heres the BUT! We will need more than just me to turn up lmao!
So volvics at the ready (Or anything else you'd like to run) Lets make a day of it!

Cheers

I'm working, what numbers does he need to run, what Dyno, max BHP, Autos, 2wd/4wd, does he do AFR and Boost plot? there's nothing on web site, and I know local place to me is cheap, but very limited on what they can test/print out/and would only do cars upto 200BHP, as is mainly used for tuning cars with carburettors :o

Its a bit out in the sticks (nice roads to drive at night), I have driven past many a time going to friends in Bexhill.

If they can run decent power, with AFR/Boost plots then probably worth posting on VOC/T5D5 as well, to try and get more interest (its next saturday)

Hi John,
I can't do that day - may be tricky for a few weeks with kids birthdays and more importantly sister-in-law in Cambridge taken a serious but anticipated turn for the worse (withdrawing chemotherapy - this is basically it) so need to be around for bro. If I can, will still get mine done locally probably during half-term week. Sanspeed only RR during the week anyway - and £80 so you have a great price there.
I hope you get some takers on that one. Well done for organising it. Hope to get down to Brighton at end of October so may give you a shout.
Cheers,
Phil.

Sounds a good idea but i think you probably need to give a bit more notice to get a few people together, i know Ninfield my Folks live about 30 mins away. I am working Sat 10th October, if it could be arranged for a later date i would bring my V70R but its AWD so if it 2wd rollers i'll bring my E39 M5. £25 is cheap !

Cheers Simon.
