SES Rolling Road Day - 29th Sept 2012
 

Proposal is to run a SES rolling road day at Surrey Rolling Road www.surreyrollingroad.com/ on Saturday 29th September.

I expect we will need a minimum of 8 - 10 cars to make this worthwhile, so I will start a list.

Price wil be confirmed at later date, expect to be around £35 per car.

I'll come along for a gander (and pizza) but probably won't put the car on the rollers, not had anything changed since it last went on!

If Simons there I might put mine on... Possible tweak, otherwise I will come up and watch.

Date of 29th September set up with SRR

Even if you haven't changed anything it's always a good idea to have a run to make sure it's fueling ok etc.

I'll be there for the pizza

I'll think about it :)

In Africa. Shame as it would be good to see what fugly makes.8-)

That's a shame I'm working

Maybe, but its been on there twice this year already:doh:

Same. If Jgm is there ill put mine on as I need to take it to see him for a check up anyway :-)

Is that all..... ;)

Will this be set up for 4 wheel drive only or can I bring my mk4 golf gt tdi along to smoke the place out?? :razz:

Simon doesn't work at weekends so very doubtfu that he would be there.

Will pop up and have a butchers , may even put the Clio on there :-)

Would love to make it to this but mine may still be in the body shop having some fresh paint! :0)

Come with me mate , probably have the P1 back by then aswel so if so ill be there in that, if not French Blue hooligan it is.

need to see what car is making before I still to play with engine!

I'll probably pop along to meet some people and have a poke around some cars but mine will be on Charlies rollers in two weeks so I doubt i'll change anything by 28th.

Ill see what mines still doing. :-P

is it possible to pay on the day ? as i dont have paypal due to my religion of not being shafted by the basterds !

I'm sure Scott will confirm, but SRR normally take all payments on the day, sure it will be fine to just turn up with cash :)

Pretty sure Charlie will be 'happy' with cash!

When I've done days there before, it's cash on the day. But make sure the agreed number of people turned up, as one forum day I went on 10 to 15 were supposed to go and 3 turned up!

Don't think charlie was very happy, understandably. if we are short on numbers I might be able to bring my golf r32 up as well if I get mot, tax and insurance sorted on it by then. Also got mate with Clio v6.

ok result ill book the day off my first ses meet if the car makes 200bhp i would be happy and if it wont then might have a run with the nos !!

got the day all booked off work touch wood the cars running that day !

what time is every one going up there and any 1 else driving up from burgess hill way as i dont know any 1 and will be a bit of a loan worrior

Not sure on times yet, but i'll be going from Burgess Hill. Might make sense for a few of us to meet up at Pease Pottage services and then run up there together.

ok that would be great let me know will have to stop off at shell hickstead for a tank of there v power love

Sounds like a good idea to see a base figure :)

I'll probably do it, as the car feels down on power at the moment, so will be interesting to see if something is up with it.

Too early to say a definate yes though at the moment

Stick me on the list, I'll be travelling up with Pete.

Gonna have to drop out of this, but numbers are stiil good, so will still go ahead.
I will let Charlie know numbers prior to the weekend.

I'd like to meet up/follow as I've not a clue where I'm going,haha.

No worries, its only about 10 mins drive from J11 of M25, not too hard to find :)

what time does this start? cheers I'll meet all down there or see yous on the drive there :smblk:

Excellent, hopefully we can get a few to meet and convoy up. Went there three years ago with Midlife but dont remember how to get there.

it looks easy enough to get to ild rather convoy but will end up on the hard shoulder i dont have much faith !

I'll be heading up a little later I think, as I have to run the boys footie training until 10.

Cant do this one but definatley up for the next one would like to see what the old girl is putting out and she how much tweeking she needs. if you could keep me posted would be good. thanks

How do you mean mate, think the cars on its last legs or something?

i have not had it long and come across some bodges from the last owner i just wish had been fixed right and have only done 40 miles in 3 weeks so will be its longest journy

Ah I see. Always the trouble with 2nd hand cars isn't it mate, there's only so much you can look at and find out before making a decision. Spent a good few grand on mine getting it up to a standard where, as far as I know, nothing needs doing on it. The dyno run is my last test if you like to see if all is well or not. Fingers crossed.

Is yours running ok and that or you having troubles with it?

thats it theres only so much you can look at at the side of the road know ive got it back and can go over it nut and bolt at a time the maf is playing up the fuel is set to low and it hits boost cut now and then so am going to try cleaning my other maf out as got sold a dodgey one as well ! turn the fuel pressure up to what it should be and set the boost down to standered again and then get it on the dyno and next month fit my simtec vf34 yellow injectors and front mount and then get it maped and on the dyno again

Ah I see. Well sounds like you know what youre doing and like its all under control. Good luck with it, see you at the RR :doubleup:

Just read through this thread an realised Petey1985 is coming but got missed off the list.... meeting times will be confirmed asap. :)

lol at rule number 3:

Be polite to the Security Guards, at least wave at them without the middle finger raised. :rofl:

Thanks guys for organising this, look forward to meeting you all, though first time I've put a standard car on the rollers. Don't laugh at my power run please.

I know charlie doesn't like early starts but that's a bit late start even for him !

Nice spot CJ :lol:

I've edited the posts - its a 10am start, not 10pm folks :)

Up for this as well, want to see what she is putting out :doubleup:

Cheers Steve! :angst:

Mines still standard too :-)

Right, this is only a few days away so we better sort out some plans. Please read the following points and i'm sure everything will go smoothly :)

- We will all meet at Surrey Rolling Road at 10am.
- SRR is located at Unit 120 Qinetiq, Chobham Ln, Chobham Lane, Chertsey, Surrey KT16 0EX.
- Upon entry, please park in the car park on the right (before you go through the Security hut/barriers). We will gather here then walk round to the SRR building before getting the cars on the rollers.
- Be prepared to hang around for most of the day. We will most likely run all the classics in a group, all the newages in a group etc, as it saves time adjusting the rolling road for different wheelbase lengths all the time. The order of running is unknown at the moment, so apologies if you need to wait until the afternoon.
- Please fill in a form beforehand and bring it on the day! (See Silversurfer's post above!).
- Bring the £35 cash with you for Charlie.
- Bring some spare money for lunch. Normally we'll just order a load of pizzas and have them delivered. If you don't want to join in the pizza, bring something else.
- If people want to meet up at Pease Pottage services and convoy from there, be at PP and ready to leave for 9am. We'll then just follow M23/M25 up to SRR.


There's a few newbies on this list so please introduce yourselves on the day. Also, can you post up whether you are meeting at PP at 9am or SRR at 10am (so we don't leave without anyone!), plus what car you will be in so we know how many classics/newages there'll be etc.

Thanks folks :doubleup:

I may pop long a bit later as my girl is playing football in the morning and I may go on if there is room but not that fussed as I was on the roller not that long ago.

Sure there will be room for you Steve if you do turn up and want to put the car on :ok:

I may pop along and watch for a couple of hours and if I do I'll be at pp

I'll be meeting up at Pease Pottage. I'll be in a red legacy estate.

Wish I wasnt working saturday, this will be a good day. :sadnod:

I'll be a bit late as I can't get away until 10 - I think I know my way there :wink:!

Not sure which car at the moment might be the bug now if Sian needs the Forester.

I'll be there at 9.45 opening the place up so if it's raining you can wonder over leaving all but 4 car in the carpark ;)

Cheers, nice one Chris :)

I'll be meeting at Pease pottage, I'll be in a blue newage bug eye.

i may meet you all at Pease Pottage (Mica Red bugeye wagon), but don't wait for me, depends how responsive the misses is at getting up, seeing she has been to SSR a few times now, i think the enthusiasm may have died off. Golf R32 is going to have to stay at home as still in bits, so will just be the scoob.

If i miss you at Pease Pottage, i'll see you all at SSR.

I'll be the clueless idiot that will be half asleep.

I may see if I can pop along too

Looks like I will be bringing the Bug now (at least I wont be in the lowest powered car now!).

Question for C.J though.... As I have no tow points on the back of the car at present (due to removing towbar) will you be able to strap it down or do I need to get under the car in this rain and fit the brackets I have?

Would love to have popped along but I have the pleasure of spending the whole weekend digging up my driveway. Make sure you post some photos!

Straps go over front Laterial link so will be fine

I will proberly see you on the m25 if not I will see you all at SRR

Cheers C.J saves getting cold and wet!

Just to let you know when you exit the m25 come down the dual carrage way and turn left at first roundabout let your satnav have a spaz then at next round about turn left take the little road 5m into that road on the right . Hopefully your satnav will then reroute you to the rollers .
The reeson for this was on the news , the round about next to the hospital collapsed with all the rain and the road is going to be closed for sometime .

Thanks for the heads-up CJ - but turn right at the second roundabout? I guess you mean go up Fox Hills Rd?

Yes sorry right :)

Not 100% sure i can make this now, apparently i've been double booked by the Mrs.

I'll try to make it down, but have no idea if i'll be a yes or no unfortunately

Lol, not only do i have to miss the rolling road, but it might even be costing me £10k!!! :shock:

Was this what we discussed a couple of days ago or are you going for something else?

Same one (i think)

See you all tomorrow folks.

Don't forget to print the PDF form and bring it with you (even if you're only coming to watch!).

see you tomorrow. i maybe running half an hour to an hour late as only got in an hour ago from picking new wheels up which i need to get unloaded and put away in the morning and then got to check car over before it goes on rollers. will get there as quick as i can.
