smudge 1020 Report post Posted November 23, 2015 With more and more of us now sporting performance modifications, I was wondering if anyone would be up for a Rung What You Brung session at Santa Pod next year? http://www.santapod.co.uk/e_rwyb.php This is a great day out (weather permitting of course!) where you can test out your car's performance as much as you want for just £35 all day long! It'd be interesting to see how the different setups perform against each other and we can tie it in with a meal out in the evening if people fancied it? Just gauging interest for who would be up for this if we looked at something around Feb/March 2016? There's an event on Sunday 28th February 2016 so let's aim for that date Interested: Smudge rob275 Ztox - found his balls! KevinA Tarerim - also needs to man up and stop relying on his Torque app Keethos Deacon AJ124 Mark-in-Stoke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rob275 1817 Report post Posted November 23, 2015 Not a massive fan of straight line performance, but that said. It'd be nice to see how the different F/I kits vary so i'm in Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It'd be nice to see how the different F/I kits vary so i'm in I much prefer going round a track, but it's still a good laugh I really wished I'd had got a 1/4mile time on the old setup so I could compare to the new one, so it's be good to see you there so I can have a rough guess of what mine would have been Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ztox 230 Report post Posted November 23, 2015 As I'm not F/I yet I probably wouldn't run it but I'd be well up for the day out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tareim 343 Report post Posted November 23, 2015 is there a cost to just come and watch? as I used torque to give me a rough 1/4 mile time so don't need to spend £35 lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The actual experience is all part of the excitement. Doing a 1/4 mile with a stopwatch on a road somewhere isn't quite the same Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
