imster · 09:35 PM

Yay! First to post!!

What a brilliant day!

Huge thanks to Matt (You owe me a test drive fella!) for organising the meet and Chris (Toffs) who is an absolute star doing all the paperwork and info gathering just to make the meet that much better!

Big thanks also to AMD for their generous rollers guess its the season of giving with Xmas and all that coming up

It was great to catch up with all the familiar faces and meet a few new poeple too.

Star of the show was the black mk4 with the rotrex for being the loudest! (sorry mate didnt get your name!)

Other highlight was booming it down the M25 at a fast (but safe) speed lol, Paulie was gunning it and he left me and everyone else for dust!

Time to start doing some "research" on superchargers, my wifes gonna kill me!

I will post some pics + vids up later on

Thanks to Matt for the organising was a good day and heres a couple of pics

Then there was a little mishap!!!

Luckily it was nothing major and after a quick 5 min fix it was good to go

Thanks again for today was a bloody good turn out and good to put a few faces to names....

little_mp3 · 13th December 2009, 05:33 PM

as i stated in the other thread in the meets.. thanks to all you guys!

absolutely fantastic turn out! amazing convoy that had two groups of R's perfectly merging together on the M25! kinda like it was written in the script of a film!!

it was my first meet and boy... if every meet has around 30+ R's that would be amazing!
i was lucky enough to sit in suz1 R8, and what a beast!! v8 grunt!! and then straight away paulie gave me a lift in his R and one word keeps springing to mind... RENTLESS beast!! seriously need to see what gforce its producing paulie! it can't be healthy if thats the everyday car and flooring it like that! lol..

AmD was very welcoming and gave us a brill bbq in the cold! though the stats from the rollers may have been on the more generous side.

but all in all its by far the best day i've had in ages!! top notch guys!

hope u all drive safe and get hoem safe!

little_mp3 · 13th December 2009, 05:35 PM

oh and i forgot... big thanks also to toff for being the camera man!! top top guy!! can't wait to see the video clips and pics!!

Ren32 · 13th December 2009, 06:40 PM

Awesome day! Nice to meet people for the first time! I've almost forgot what everyones names are on here that i've been speaking to today but everyone was very friendly!

5 hour drive back to Derby, however, was not pleasant! damn M25 closing!

Toff was spot on today with all the camera work etc! good man.

Cheers, Chris

That was a great day!!!, thanks to Mattchaps for organising the day, AmD for running it and Toffs for sitting behind all the cars taking photos/videos. Perhaps Toffs should be changed from parking attendant to keeper of records

. Was great to meet everyone and catch up.
I’m pleased with my results even with my little mishap. I was expecting 430-450 bhp but ended up with 473bhp & 386lb/ft

which isn’t bad as storm only quote 450bhp for the kit.

My rr printout:

Thanks to all those who helped push my car off the rr and on to the ramps

, at least everyone got to see what the underside of an R32 looks like

.

Did a few videos, @59 seconds you can see the grill pop off (front left) that’s when the hose popped off the intercooler after that it was running a bit rich (hence the black smoke) and only made 318bhp.

Was a great day out, well organised and good to see some old faces and meet some new ones

Thanks to AMD for hosting, the all day BBQ and drinks, and 276bhp was a nice result too

Good turn out, I counted 36 R32's at one time but there was probably a few more over the whole day.

Easily one of the best Rolling Road Day/Forum events I've ever been on. I counted a maximum of 35 R32's and about 3 other cars such as the R8.

Nice to meet everyone, put some faces to names and meet up with the regulars; Rupo, dwolff, paulnutter etc

Such a great community to be part of and made me NEVER want to sell my R32

I will certainly make more effort to attend other meets from now on.

I personally feel (as did a few others) the AMD rolling road is a little optimistic. But what the hell, it's good bragging figures for the Pub

One of the highlights for me was some of us deciding to pay £3 each just to drive through Dartford Tunnel and make some noise! It was epic

Oh, and I managed 273.2bhp and 266.6lbs/ft torque in the end. Mines REVO'd with an ITG Panel filter and it was interested comparing graphs with the black standard R32 MKV there (which made 270bhp)

DougalR · 13th December 2009, 07:47 PM

I think rolling road was fine, i feel more the frost cold air was why!!

awesome day people absolutely loved it !!!! D thanks to 450BHP dude for taking me out made me want a blower more now!!! D

James (caxton01) · 13th December 2009, 08:09 PM

R32Dom · 13th December 2009, 08:12 PM

There's far too many blue ones! Looks like a good day was had by all... so will there be a list of cars/figures?

blistex · 08:26 PM

What a great sight as you drove into the estate. All those R's. I didnt stay long as I was with my folks in their polo, parked far far out of site. Looks like a good day was had by everyone then. Thanks to all the organisers, It was my first event and I will definately come again. Whose was the DBP Mk5 in front of the door, with the kahn alloys with stretched tyres and west side stickers? That was super clean. i didnt know anybody, so was a bit shy to intro myself to anyone. Thanks again to all the organisers.

That's because blue ones are faster. Although there was no Rolling Road evidence to prove that unfortunately :(

The car you refer to is imster's if I remember correctly.

I forgot to add earlier. MASSIVE thanks to AMD for there hospitality; £35.00 for about 20 cups of tea (it was cold!

), two sausage sandwiches and two Rolling Road runs was a bargain. The food wasn't any cheap crap either, can't beat quality sausages and bacon

alyr32 · 13th December 2009, 09:35 PM

What a brilliant day we had today nice to meet you all. Special thanks to Matt for taking my nephew out for a blast in your car it absolutely made his day, he is still grinning. A big thanks to Barry for doing my alarm beeps top man. Roll on the next meet.

DWolfUK · 13th December 2009, 10:00 PM

another great day

- BBQ as promised, plenty of motors. lots of good people. what more could you want??
