I have booked the next RR day for us, it will be on the 19th Feb 2011 (Saturday) at Dastek/Performance HQ located in Fife, as it is on behalf on Weekend Racer and here any car is welcome on the day. I've decided to get the ball rolling early as it leaves people more time to organise time off work or what ever and it leaves me more time to get deposits in, I have to pay them by January.
Where is it?
Performance HQ Garage Services Ltd
16 Ridge Way
Hillend Business Park
Dalgety Bay
Fife
KY11 9JN
Tel: 01383 827900
20 - 25 cars
£40 each unless we get over 20 cars, then it will be cheaper
2 Runs including a power graph to take away
You will be talked through your runs on the day and be given expert advise should you need it
Tea/coffee & vending machines on site
9am start
I will need £150 deposit, I was thinking of taking £20 deposit off people now then you just pay the remaining £££ on the day. All deposits must come to me. You can pay by sending cash recorded delivery, bank transfer, cheque or if you're local I will meet you somewhere within reasonable distance.
If people turn up on the day then decide they wan't to go on the RR then this is fine, you will just have to pay the full sum there and then.
Any enquiries then feel free to speak to me, you will not be confirmed on the Rollers until I have your deposit so the sooner you get the cash to me the better. Get your name down in here ans I will update a list on the first page as and when you pay.
This will be the 3rd day I've organised and I hope this one will be better than the rest, we've had a good turn out both times with some great cars turning up so lets make this one bigger and better 
I've got in to the habit of giving out a prize for car of the day, next one will be a valeting kit provided by CS and our very own Rich(refined Detail) and you will also get a years free membership to the site 
Unfortunately deposits are non refundable once they have been paid to PerformanceHQ
pics of the last day are here incase you missed it

So come on, get your names down!
1. DannyB - 16v XSI PAID
2. Mike56gte - c20xe Corsa
3. Nic - c20let Corsa
4. Eck - T5
5. Connolygt30 - c20xe Corsa

Is there any chance we could have something similar organised in our region as i would really like to get on rollers with mine, and obviously would love it if it could be done a little cheaper with doing it as a group
Thanks in advance
Danny

Right this isn't the first time this has been mentioned to me lately so it may be worth another look into.
Unfortunately it's not come about at the best of times, after attending a few rr days now, they somehow seem better when you're not freezing your nads off 
If I could get something planned, aiming for March, I know it's a while off but the weather will hopefully be sorting itself out a bit by then and it gives a bit more time since the previous rr day which was only 5 months ago. It'd also give plenty of notice for people to book off work if needs be (I know that's been a problem in the past) then we should be able to manage a decent turnout and a good day.
Let us know who's interested and if we've got the numbers then I'll find somewhere suitable and get everything sorted.
If anyone's got any details of rolling roads then feel free to let me know them, I've only been to one around here so if you could save me a bit of homework it'd be much appreciated

Probably will, consistency doesn't seem my engine's strong point, readouts upto now: 79.4, 65, 72.8, 50 
It's definitely not going the right way  As long as it keeps holding it's own on track tho, I'm not bothered, just gives me more ammo for winding people up after I've passed them

i would suggest my mates rolling road, but for nick it would be no good as they only do about 300bhp@wheels, but they know there stuff so if your cars not safe they wont run it, but they will tell you whats up with it too, and wouldnt cost too much either i dont think compared to some places which charge 50+ for runs, all the mini, cossy, ford RR days ive been too there have been a laugh too, yb powered minis, etc
i could find out if people wanted.

Just thought I'd dig this back up again why I'm on about the 2011 plans.
7 people expressed an interest which means maybe 4 tops would actually put a deposit down when it comes to it which obviously isn't enough so I'll top this and start a list see if it's gonna be feasible
So anyone interested, copy and paste the list and add your name
1.
2.
3.
Fill your boots

I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.
