to Powerstation near Cheltenham for a rolling road day with some of the lads from westover.org.uk

It was great fun.

I didnt take my car up there as we went in my Boyfriends Leon Cupra R.

List of cars that went are:

Vauxhall Monaro
Toyota Aristo
Scooby P1
Ibiza Cupra R
Leon Cupra R
Saxo VTR
BMW 323
BMW 325
Golf GTI

I have all the charts if anyone is interested.

@ Dangerous Dave, You mentioned liking the Leon Cupra R as your next car, I thought I would post you up my boyfriends chart for you to have a look at.

He has had the remap done by www.e-maps.co.uk and loads of other goodies.

Video clip

I'll let you all know when we plan another one and maybe some of you could come along too.

Thanks

I'd be interested to know what BHP the P1 put out.

Any chace you could just type it on here though please :D

And the video is pretty cool, not bad power figures either.

That'll be the ol' Corvette box of prior Lotus Carlton fame, then :D Probably originally sourced from a truck or something. Five nice tight charging ratios and a ludicrously tall cruising gear. Not like it hasn't the power to punt easily along with, though...
