ive been wanting to put my car on the rolls for a while now. so thought how about a rolling road day. best venue i guess would be northallerton close enough for the yorkshire lads and close for us north east lads. so whos intrested then. if theres any intrest ill make some phone calls and get prices. if we could copy and paste a list that would be great graeme welch s60 t5 rica stg 2
hi mate u say northallerton would that be at motorscope iam up for it
a friend uses motscope and he rates them plus its only 25 mins from me!
What about Alwyn Kershaw just outside york? now i remember a few years ago he was doing a T5 conversion into a 440 shell with full 4wd running gear. I have personally used him quite a few times when my capri was a standard 2.8 turbo. He is one of the few places that has a 4wd rolling road that can accept 2400bhp!!!!! Oh ye he knows Volvos inside out Simon
i thought motorscope would be a good place as i know they have a good reputation and its central for both yourkshire and the northeast lads. Ill find out how many cars we need to get the rollers for the day or half day depending on numbers. graemewelch smithness yorkshire R
Yeah Id be up for that. Could try out motorscope! Ive only ever used Bogg Brothers before.
Yep I would certainly be interested in this one, fairly local and I need to get the car on the Dyno again.
I am in, not for a go on the rollers but will pop across and see you all - depending on day
looking good so far. ill make contact with motorscope mid week and find out what dates we are looking at and what number will be needed
am game , they have a good rolling road set up like , not to sure about the rest
no trophies tho as smithness has enough lol

Hi, We would be more than happy to hold a rolling road day for your club. We charge £40 per car and each car will get 3-4 runs with a print out of the best 2. Each car will get a print out showing power at the wheels and at the flywheel as well as a torque figure, there will also be a print out of the AFR & Boost for the turbo cars. We can hold these days saturdays or sundays, for a saturday there is a minimum of 10 cars, for a sunday there would be a minimum of 25 cars. We normally ask for a deposit of £10 per car two weeks before the day. Do you have an idea of any dates ? Regards Motoscope.
im thinking of somtime in september. what dose every one think about this.
not to fused , aug or sept
Sept fine for me mate.
[quote=smithson007;404192]Sept fine for me mate.[/quote]yea thats fine for me to;-}
september for me. need to let my wallet recover and MOT the car!
Sept better for me
If it's september I should be able to tag along, got a bottom end transplant to crack on with first :(
il ask if the sept 17th is available. dose this sound ok to everyone. if they are available and this date is ok for most then i can take deposits of £10 then when ive got ten it can be booked
would have liked to have done this but doing car show on 18th so be busy cleaning the car, if date changes to weekend before count me in but am away on hols from 23rd till oct.
no date is set in stone. im waiting on some feedback from those who are intrested. with out ten deposits a date cant be set. was kind of hoping things might of moved a bit quicker
well im deffinatly going now and will take the 850 instead of the c70

Truth be told October would be best for me but I can still come in September, not sure when im working but can wingle a day off here and there. Without meaning to sound rude there will always be someone who cannot do the date that is offered forward, just need to go with the majority.
Any weekend should be good for me. Nowt planned in the near future.
ill ring motorscope tomora about dates. then ill post a date and start taking deposits so we can book
im free all of the time
yeah me too , was a canny little trip out last time me and deano went ,these lads have a good dyno to
sat 17 th sept is available. i need ten deposits of £10 to book the rolls. im away on holiday for a week this sat, but if i can get all deposits in by 2nd sept sooner will be better though. motorscope need deposit weeks befor the day to reserve the rolls for the day. if every one can send the payment to [email]graemewelch01@hotmail.com[/email] as a gift so i dont end up out of pocket with fees. please leave forum user name in the message on paypal so i know whos paid and who not. deposit isnt refundable.
Sorry going to have to pull out, got a load of overtime coming up in September. Apologies.
ok thanks for letting me know. it would be great if all other members intrested can make contact and confirm whats happening. im trying to get things organised with motorscope but with out comunication from everyone this cant go ahead. come on fellas help me out abit. ill try and pt everyone, after this ill just call it a day. ive tried but get the feeling im going to fail
I dont get paid until next wednesday and im flat broke until then so cant send any deposit over until then:(
I will still pop along but as the Volvo is no longer functional I wont be running for obvious reasons.
Rite guys..whats going on,, we still doing this??? may as well double check before sending my money so we dont have to mess around with refunds ta
No point in sending ya money until you know 10 peolpe are interested.... Another list of names needs startin now we know the date...
not enough intrest going on here so im going to stop wasting my time.
Sorry pal. thanks for trying though
[quote=Yorkshiresxi;407657]Sorry pal. thanks for trying though[/quote] ne worries mate. its a shame like it would of been a good day. not sure i would of been able to run either. some one went into the back of me whist on my hols. not sure if it will get repaired or not
Shame would have been a good day but i undersatnd mate. I always hate try to organise things.
now we are doing our 2nd meet maybe we could look into this again. poss march time
Ill be up for it mate. Hopefully be able to get a good few numbers together for this.
I'm thinking... Set a date with very clear instructions, costs etc... and then people will probably sign up. I'd be interested it was a Sat/Sunday Dates allowing.
You may well have me and mike850R in the meet if dates are right :)
I'd be up for it if it's North Allerton or thereabouts.
a min of ten people to run on a sat or 25 on a sunday £10 deposit then £30 on the day 3 to 4 run and print outs for the best 2 runs with charts to see how car is running these were the prices i got last time i enquired. im thinking sat the 3rd of march. if we want this to go ahead then ill take deposits as soon as we have a min of ten people. ill start a new tpic after the xmas meet
The 3rd would be good for me, but not the 10th and 24th March as Burnley play at Home. I love my Volvo, but I also love Burnley and need to use the season ticket!
If this is still a going concern, i would be up for it, only half hour from my house. As i,m close if i can help in any way ?
it could be if i can get the intrest and deposits.
[quote=graemewelch;441320]it could be if i can get the intrest and deposits.[/quote] I,m sure i can get along, (both me and t5_monkey need an answer). As i said if i can help please let me know.
last time i tried to arrange one there was loads of intrest untill it came to deposit time. im going to bali in january so cant do anything untill feb, but by all means if you want to try and get somthing sorted. might be best if all thats intrested just book a session.
Yes, i noticed you tried your best. If theres any interest this time see what numbers there are.
