RWYB

Nickc1982 · 03-04-2018, 03:24 AM

Seems to be quite a few rwyb events coming up and I would really like to give the 340 a decent test, plus need to remove some rubber on my new goodyears!
Any interest in trying to get a forum get together? Can then hopefully run some different spec cars to compare.

We never got this off the ground last time unfortunately - it's difficult to get people to commit!

If the weather it right I'd be keen.

They just had a complete resurface didn't they? Could be interesting.

If the date works I'll gladly come along. Last time I did a RWYB I was in a 2l diesel Mondeo on a stupidly hot day with the air conditioning on full blast with a few hundred kg of subs, amps, batteries and sound deadening was in the car

I could be up for it if the date works. I've been a few times but not had too many runs as either the rain got in the way, and another time was the BMW festival, which meant it was absolutely rammed.

I went expecting a few from another forum to turn up. In the end it was me and a 200SX from my forum and a pile of Vdubz. With all of the noisy beetles and stuff revving up I didn't think they'd mind me pelting out some music... They did. Ah those were the days!

17.749s 1/4 & 77.31 mph
2nd sept 2007

my friend with the 200sx
16.576s 1/4 & 76.45 mph

My car was fully loaded up with audio, toolkit and loads of other stuff. I only did the run to see what it would do as a daily driver.

The 340 is stock so I don't have any excuses.

And just to be awkward, the following weekend is my birthday weekend so we'll likely be busy.

Can someone post a poll with date options?
