Guys - This could be our 1st opportunity that Williamsclio has of running a rolling road club shootout and would be an ideal opportunity to get a level result platform for all club cars.

Ive just spoken to Nick Hill about his new rolling road that he is having installed at his workshops. The new set up can do more than just printout a piece of paper with your graph on, which is a bonus. And Nick can give you detailed breakdown of your cars performance and talk all day about potential tunning questions.

As this is his opening day, and if we can secure some good numbers. We might be able to get some more magazine coverage in PGTI.

Hill Power's address is below so you can get a idea of where we are going.

Barns Heath Farm,
Snarestone Road,
Appleby Magna,
Swadlingcote,
Derbys,
DE12 7AJ

Can i have a list of people who can commit to a date in the begining of 2006. I will confirm a date with Nick nearer the time.

whats the cost of the day mate? roughly? might be interested! always wanted to see how the willy fairs and it would be a prime time to do it?

northy
08-12-2005, 18:37
normally its around £25 for a power run Paul. Well it is in the North West.

But ive no idea what Nicks rates are.

I will ask and get back to you tomorrow. I doubt its going to be any differant to be honest....but its better to ask.

hard to commit to a date if i dont know what it is pal, interested none the less but not putting my name down until i know a price and a date, not being funny or owt but just not sure if i can afford it

richy
09-12-2005, 21:00

MatBrown
09-12-2005, 23:12

northy
12-12-2005, 09:00
good lads.

I will ring up today and confirm a date and price.

Thanks guys.

Scott-16v!
14-12-2005, 22:14
any news on it northy mate? :)

northy
15-12-2005, 08:37
not really

ive spoken to Nick and have the following information.

Price: To be confirmed when he has worked it out
Date: To be confirmed

Amount of cars to power run: currently nick is working on 15max at the minute, but more could get on if he gets the others through within time.

He would rather do less and provide support than say he could do 25 - 30 by rushing them through.

So at the min, i need to wait until nick can get back to me with a date and then i can start the thread up again.

northy

Zollo
15-12-2005, 13:48
I'm definately coming :)

Would really like to get mine on the rollers, but if numbers are resricted it doesn't look like there's much chance of that!

J o n
15-12-2005, 14:19
Williams should get 1st refusal :wink: :twisted:

northy
15-12-2005, 14:37
to make it fair, when people start to pay for the run prior to the date, i will compile a list on a first come first served basis.

Nick Hill might well be able to run more but tbh i think he is just taking precautions.

craig100
15-12-2005, 16:41
soon as you get times,dates,prices let us know northy n ill pay up.its only right nick taking precautions if its only just up and running :D

Lunner
15-12-2005, 16:53
I might be there, but depends if i have to book a day off work for it, i'm saving days off work for trackdays only this year, so would have to be a weekday

northy
03-01-2006, 11:58
Spoken to nick hill - he wishes us all the best for 2006.

The rolling road is fully installed and opperational but he at the minute he can only offer us one of the two features of his rolling road. 1. power data loggin facility (basically the standard rr results of BHP, revs and torque printouts).
2. The engine data logging side (recording, ECU, lambard, water temp and fueling data) isnt finished yet and will need technical help from America to complete.

He is confident by the start of early feb all the software will be installed and he can offer us the full rolling road package.

Were looking at the start of Febuary guys for our magshoot rolling road day. I still dont have a confirmed date, but i will push to confirm by mid January.

Zollo will the magazine be ok with this ??? If not i will organise a sub feature along the lines of Which standard williamsclio was fastest ? The 1, 2 or 3 ??? :wink:

03-01-2006, 12:12

I would have thought they'd be fine with this mate.

Don't bother with the second option. Generally magazines don't want a predictable outcome and it's obvious who's gonna be slowest :wink:

Swervin_Mervin
03-01-2006, 12:14
Well if you all plan on staying on the rollers you'll all be as fast as each other, derrr! #-o

MatBrown
04-01-2006, 02:13
He's normally there most days, best bet is to ring him just before you leave.

I was there today and Nick told me he was considering sat 11th feb...not confirmed yet though. His rolling road setup is up and running and looks awesome!

stew
18-01-2006, 21:42

:twisted:

Martin
19-01-2006, 00:08
no map fella just a few more revs :)

Chris n`nic
19-01-2006, 11:29
Put us down for it m8...wouldn`t mind Nick having a look at mine to see if my ECU has the fueling all over the place or not..

Chris

Nick Hill
19-01-2006, 16:45
I have sent Northy a copy of our Rolling Road charge for 2006 and some pics of the rollers. With the data I can now get from the rollers along with the Clip diagnostic tester I will be able to log fueling levels, display them, graph them and print them.
I have set aside the 11th of Feb for the Williams Club.
As this is our first Club Day I am looking at running 15 cars on the day. If I have time at the end of the 15 cars I will run some additional tests.
I will post further info as to the special offers I will be having on the day as well.

Cheers Nick. I've let Performance GTi magazine know, so I'll be coming along on the day to do the feature. See you then!

i will come guys but i wont stick mine on the rollers, mine will be goin on soon there anyway so no point in doing it twice!!

northy
19-01-2006, 18:26
Nick has stated his preferance not to be over run buy cars.

So i will create a list on a first come first pay basis until the 15 places are filled.

Anyone who missed out can come down and wait to see if he / she can get a run and then a payment can be taken there and then.

I will ask people to send me a credit transfer rather than paypal please.
