It's a possibility yes and there will be enough experts around to lend advice if need be.

So is that your R James that Liam refers to?

Yes, it was at Cosford for those who were there. It's estimated to be running about 230 at the crank, but then it is 18 years old.

OK, would be good to see how she compares with my fwd manual.

So how are we deciding where and when with this dyno day.......a poll?

**JamesT5** · Sunday 15th November 2015, 17:20

To be honest, it's not running as I want it and the running gear needs an overhaul. Still, can't complain as I only paid £400 for it!

I'm not 100% sure that mine is had it should be either, but mine cost a lot more than yours. Anyway, what are we thinking on the when/where?

**foammanmark** · Saturday 21st November 2015, 20:20

Any news on this RR day............location/date?

**martin_r_smith** · Saturday 21st November 2015, 20:49

Think we need a poll on venue after some suggestions.

I'll start....

1. Btec Racing, OX7 6BQ

**foammanmark** · Saturday 21st November 2015, 21:07

I'm resigned to the fact that I'm travelling some distance, so if the venue above is close to the M40, then I'm in...........

**don kalmar union** · Saturday 21st November 2015, 21:09

Marlin Motor Engineers in Milton Keynes (Bletchley) or Powerstation in Tewkesbury.

Both have excellent modern installations and have been used before for Volvo meets.

Don.

**martin_r_smith** · Saturday 21st November 2015, 21:10

It's probably 30 mins from m40

1. Btec Racing, OX7 6BQ
2. Marlin Motor Engineers in Milton Keynes (Bletchley)
3. Powerstation in Tewkesbury.

S Clarke Remapping, Llanelli (south Wales). That should put some of the Welsh road virgins to the test...."We're off to...Laa,Lu, Lan...I give up, but that place near Swansea."

I've been to Llanelli many times, my ex's Dad had a property there, and I know it's pronounced Clanethly.

Marlin would take my vote, slightly closer to east Anglia than all these brummy side meets.

A good point Merlin, but it appears though my lengthy 30second research that the central point for all would be in Lancashire (Foamy will love that) according to the ordnance survey bods http://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/blog...great-britain/

**S70T5Chris** · Sunday 22nd November 2015, 08:05

Marlin would get my vote. Maha dyno too.

**Ettienne** · Sunday 22nd November 2015, 08:19

Id go along with the Bletchley one be good to watch, have family relatively close so can pop in for a visit.

I'll use the local snap on Dyno and speak with rich about organising a run for the locals in southern area.
