IT''S BACK!

Postby 2kwik » Wed Mar 17, 2010 9:20 pm

Got the car back from Indulgence today and realised how much I have missed driving it - since November last year?? Had a great run back to Canterbury (albeit M2) but still a laugh as you boot it past a line of traffic. :lol: Got the RR session with Gerald Dale tomorrow with Dan (contaminated) so want to see how it compares to the two read outs that I have that came with the car history. Have got the video charged up to record the valves hitting the workshop ceiling (PLEASE NO!). :o Will tell you the result tomorrow! ;)

Yeah post up the video, don't forget to follow that valve with the camera so we can see how far it goes!

Have fun driving and don't go too mad!

Is it me or can anyone see it?, I get "This video is not yet processed. "

Good old Gerald, he couldnt help me last year set up my Emerald but he really put in the hours over it, because he failed he set up all my suspension and cambers instead!

Oh I thought you meant he set up your cambers as well because he couldn't do your Emerald?! :o

I guess his kit can't deal with all that power ;)

It's finished processing now guys. Needs a while to download though - probably should have reduced the size. It was only taken on a digi camera though.

Ha. I will upload my camcorder clips of both Dan and my 'experience' today in a bit.
Awesome thing to do as long as you have taken some prescription calming pills first. :o
Gerald is a top man and managed to get mine way past what I thought it had - and all without any fuss. He even got rid of a flat spot at the top end of the power band that I didn't know I had - very few occassions that I venture into that 6500-7000rpm territory on the open road and haven't really been there much on track either. Just wait for next Tuesday though!! :lol:
PS Dan was awesome in his, ahem, new trainers poncing about outside with his fingers in his ears and saying la la to himself so he couldn't hear his car screaming in the booth!! Wot a wuz.
