Hi - we are looking at organising the next rolling road day, to take place late October, early November (before it gets too cold!!)
What normally happens is we get there early, mooch about talking cars - run your car if you want, keep warm with a few brews. Then for those who want we book a local hotel, have a bite to eat and go out for a few drinks (and usually a club)
We have used both before and both come heartily recommended. Aldon does one power run at £25 measures power at wheels and estimates at fly and John Sleath does 3 in close succession at £35 and measures at wheels.
Aldons road maxes out at 250 bhp at the wheels, whereas John Sleath is 4wheel drive and is good for huuuge HP.
So - which do people prefer - Aldon Automotive - West Midlands - night out in brum/wolverhampton
or
John Sleaths - Doncaster way - night out in Sheffield??
We do need about 15-20 cars to run and for those interested we'll charge £10 paypal deposit to avoid people saying 'yeah i'll come' and not turning up, as then the club won't get its deposit back!.
Pete

John Sleath gives power at wheels doesn't he? Since flywheel figures are theoretical only on a wheel dyno.

I don't mind organising this again with John if we decide to go there. I've not spoken to Aldon but I presume the older chap is out of hospital now etc?
John can also plot boost pressure & AFR on your graph, which I know aldon can't, but we do have lots of data for runs at Aldon in the past.

Only 11 people have voted, but that doesn't mean that more people don't want to come - they might not care where it's held. I don't mind either way, would come to either!
