Anyone fancy meeting at the Cobham services on the M25 at 8:15am to convoy over? Its about a 30 minute run from there (and they have a Shell garage).

Sounds good to me.

You won't want to follow me, I'll be in a diesel

Unless I get a lift with someone else i guess....

[555_Si]

I can pick you up in the golf if you are willing to cross over to the darkside lol.

[Rdlangy1]

Well I have an empty car besides me!!! ha ha ha - although you'd have to gimme your address and tell me how far from Cobham services you are e.t.c.

Not sure about meeting at 'Cobham'.
My usual route when on business is M25, A3, Hog's Back, then Aldershot/Farnborough. It's pretty easy and gets you off M23 ASAP.

Nice one Steve, I'll let you know. Not sure if i'll need to leave mid-afternoon so might need to be in the diesel anyway, but if not then a lift would be good if you're passing this way

You mean M25 then A3? The Cobham services are before the M25/A3 junction so you'll be driving past??

[scoobie_paul]

Might not make it my rad decided to split
On route home from work today "gutted" I've ordered a new one but won't have it to fit until sat ! If I can get it done quick can I still come a bit later ?

That's a gutter mate. Come along any time. I guess peeps will be there well into the afternoon.

[scoobie_paul]

fingers crossed I can get it done in time ! I really wanted to meet everyone and get it on the rolling road it's pretty stock but would be good to know what base I have so I know what benefits I get from future changes !

[C. J.]

Best to come down the m3 rather than the A3 but up to you guys as I'm coming cross country

rads are easy to change over on scoob. 30 mins max I would say

Depends on how much rust on the fan bolts. Mine was an ars3!!!

I don't know about that.

The less time on the M25 the better!

Once set off for Dan's from Banstead an hour after a chap from Epsom and arrived an hour before him.

He went on the M25 & M3, whereas I went on the A3, A31 and A331.

Extreme example, but it's always put me off!

Nope, just east of the A3.
As the services are accessible from both sides of the m/way, you can effectively use the services turn-off as an extra junction on the motorway... so can approach from the west and return west for example without going down to J9.

[Rdlangy1]

Right won't be on before tomorrow so just thought id wish everyone safe journey, and see you all tomorrow...Whoever is meeting at Cobham, ill be the blue bugeye parked next to green Nissan 200sx - see ya!

[555_Si]

see you guys there, I am flying back to UK tonight so will probably miss you guys at Chobham, need every minute of sleep I can get before I fly back out Sunday. Heavy drinking session last night and a sleep deprived week has almost got the better of me.

[Ginola]

I'm afraid I can no longer make this as have to work this weekend

Have a good one guys and hope to see you all soon.

That is a shame,

I thought you was the boss..

You could let Wanda drive the scoob to the rollers..

[Steve_PPP]

For those meeting at the M25 Cobham services, we aim to be there at 8:15am (to leave by 8:30am).

We'll then meet up with everyone else from 9am at Surrey Rolling Road (postcode GU14 7QU).

That was on a Saturday, but you're right, it should be better.

[C. J.]

The numbers on the units are all over the place and not in numerical order for those that have not been to the new place . If you follow sat navs and then when on invincible rd follow signs for invincible M.O.T. Your find srr 2 doors to the left

[ScoobyStu]

Gutted to be missing this, was really looking forward to it. Have a great day, see you all soon...

[Rdlangy1]

Ok I may have over estimated my travel time - I'm at cobham already! Pmsl

[Rdlangy1]

We're parked first right and right again as u come in services

[Hongkongfooi]

Overslept so sorry won't be there. Look forward to seeing the scores from the day

Get in the car and see you soon

[Rdlangy1]

Well back from SRR - what a great day!!!
Big thanks to Charlie and C.J - great guys - and really know there stuff!
Was impressed with my own car considering its only got a back box and air filter (nothing done by me I might add - 281.1 hp (yes the .1 is important!) - more pleased that its running spot on, which means I have a great base to start from...

Was also fantastic to meet Big E, Steve PPP, Red Baron, Lucky, Wagon Si and Wagon Jo (nice cake!), Silver Surfer, and the others guys whom im sorry but im no good with names

Great bunch of people, and considering it was my first meet up with you all - you were all very kind. And thanks for showing my mate Sean courtesy aswell considering he was in a nissan ha ha ha

Ill get posting the pics up now - if anyone wants vids emailed of their motors on the rollers, I think I got everybodies, drop me a PM with your email addy.

Cheers

Ryan

Missed you all, yeah he is the boss but had no choice on this once with peeps being away. Dave has been a bit down over it. How did you all do?

[Rdlangy1]

281.1 - was shocked beyond belief !!!

Was great to meet everyone too...

[Red Baron]

Good to meet you Ryan, glad you were happy with your results, Seans 200sx was nice as well, need to bring your friends R33 as well next time.

More than happy with my 251bhp and 260ish ft/lb considering such minor mods.

Next job is to flush the clutch fluid as cooked it sitting in traffic on the A21, stupid idea to put the resevoir above the turbo.

[andy-m]

was good to meet everyone, but as this is probably only the 3rd SES meet I have been able to come to since I joined, there was only a few faces I recognized !

I got 274.1bhp but wouldn't rev over 5500RPM, so i guess i'll have to come to the next rolling road day after i've fixed that little problem.

[555_Si]

Good day thanks guys, and thanks for the happy birthday.

Disappointed with the 256 that my golf did, but confirmed what I thought in Germany. Happy with jo's jag at 158 with 275 ft lb. I can't imagine what they are like remapped as I thought it may have been done already.

[Rdlangy1]

I think I should have a rolling road birthday!!! Ha ha - nice cake too

Have you done anything to the Golf?

Sounds about right if not, maybe slightly up on standard... thought they were 245ish.

Yeah it has been remapped, decatted, milltek exhaust and has seen 276bhp on Charlies rollers when not running right before and 288bhp on other rollers, we think it has cams, but I have a set of cams here to go in it, which I will probably look at now, as I am going to replace the head with a ported and flowed one and get it remapped again.

i'm thinking maybe my maf is old, also going to check compression when I get time.

Glad you had a good day mate. Everyone on here, that I've met anyway, is nice and friendly, it's a great community we have. Nice figures, let the slippery slope of modifications begin
