Had to leave after my run because mummy had cooked me a lovely roast for 3pm. Was good to speak to some new faces and can't wait to see all the results.

I spoke to Guy@ CPL who has a dyno dynamics setup(where it finally got mapped) and he said do it in 4th, he didn't explain why. When I had did a run at yours last year that was done in 4th as well and the figures were about what was expected and pretty good for an internet downloaded map.

I don't think I've lost any power since then as I ran a pretty quick time(for a civic) at 1/4 mile a couple of weeks ago.

It doesn't matter really as it still passes the arse test for speed

I can vouch for how quick James Breadvans supercharged Civic is !!!! Cheers for the passenger sprint up the road and back, fantastic, that supercharger whine was amazing !

Cheeky b'sted !!!!

Just wanted to say a big thanks to Gary and guys at APT....a brilliant day and very smoothly run.

Thanks also to the catering ladies who kept us topped up with food, I swear if I had been there all day I'd have ended up eating at least 3 burgers !!!!!

Stu and Dunk for organising the bash.

It was a superb turnout with a really nice variety of cars and good to meet some new faces.

Was really interesting to get a figure for how much my car pushed out and to get that piece of mind that it was running safely....well I didnt get that because it was lean at top end !! But I had suspicions that it was gonna be the case so its given me the motivation to get it mapped soon !!

But I'll never forget watching my cars first run and grimacing when it was bounced off the rev limiter, if that wasnt bad enough I turned round only to find Ben filming my face and the reactions lol :x

Great day though, looking forward to seeing all the results from the day.

Yeh, a great big thanks to the boys at APT ... BigFil and your missus with the rather fine food.

Really enjoyed it and will be working on the video shortly ... I filmed a few peoples reactions to their cars on the dyno ... :twisted:

I have to say I really enjoyed the day. It was good to see what actually happens at a RR day as I have nevere been to one before and to see what sort of power my car is running. (not as much as I thought

).

Not that I was excited about the day, but when I arrived to see nothing but Phil and co's catering van there, I realised I may have left the house a tad early. :lol:

Well done to Dan for winning the day and Stu, Gary and Ian for helping him get his car running again in time. 8)

A big thank you to Gary and the guys at APT for such a great day and to Stu and Dunc for organising it.

Lets hope I get a better result next time.

:D

Cheers guys

Thanks for a great day to everyone who played their part in organising it.
Really enjoyed it and came away with a top result also.

Not such a big thanks to all your bastards who gave me a fire extinguisher etc during my run!!

:x
