[mrf101]

[Dawie]

What a great day. Hot as hell out there. Signed up for club membership before retreating home.

A quick pic:

It was great for those who got to put their cars on the dyno before the clowns from KAR messed everything up...

[Titleists]

KAR?

[Dawie]

What happened? When I left cars were going on and coming off the dyno quite quick.

[Duck]

How did KAR mess it up??? They where on thier wy out when i left and there had been several cars done after there cars had run

[1.8R_andre]

I must agree with above mentioned those cars took forever to run and did not follow the cuing system.
Its unfair towards a lot of the okes that was there way before they pitched up.

[AlexTDi]

This event was an Epic fail! I got there just after 10 and I was already 81 in the Queue, Comm please let every know what number they actually got to in the queue system? As far as I know when I left after the rain started at 3 they didn't even reach 29,

I'm sorry but as a paid up member We should have preference at a VW Club dyno day, please clarify how many paid up members actually ran? From what I saw their were more non members and open class cars running then actually VW's Club members. First come first serve is ****! Its VW Club Dyno day and not a ST, Suburu, Alfa and Toyota dyno day they have their own clubs and own dyno days, they should have the least preference on the day.

[Le Clue]

Yup unfortanately it rained out...hot dyno and wet car = not good.

Extremely pissed with the KAR tazz, that Escort, the Porsche and Alfa that took forever to dyno. I timed a few cars and it was 10minutes from pulling up to beinge done pulled out.

Otherwise, what a awesome venue

For everyone that did not get their money back, please speak to one of us. Otherwise WRC offered to give you your 2 runs anytime during next week instead of paying the normal price.

Nice gesture. The wrc guys seemed very cool...

This is a nice gesture from them. You could see they were also getting frustrated with the KAR guys after a while. I think between the Escort and the Alfa they took more than an hour just on those cars. The "normal" cars took about 5-10mins, which was way better. If the KAR guys weren't there, then I think we could've gotten up to about 60-70 on the numbering system?

Thanks to the comm, the venue was well-sorted and there was ample space and refreshments. Even the music was good! Next time the numbering system just needs to be policed more effectively...

[Dawie]

Anyone know if the Revo Polo 6R GTI managed to get onto the dyno? Would love to know the results. Saw a stock car do 127kw before I left.

yes it did. I think it made about 150kw. Check on Facebook on the vagtechnik page...

"The little Polo 6R GTI made 30wkw and 80nm more than a stock 6R GTI...what a thing "

Pimped from Shaun Mooloo's Facebook page Awesome little cars those!

[Dawie]

Goeie bliksem. Thanks for the numbers. Mnnnnn.....

[Kev0]

What Alfa was this?

[MeanTdi]

The numbering system was temporarily held up by running a batch of four wheel drive cars to avoid taking time to re-setup the dyno. The dyno times to change the cars did take long for some cars, but safety comes first.

[1 Eyed Monkey]

How was that supercharged Voora's run? 169 wkw iirc, and still sounded like a stock VR6. Goeie fok....

[6R_GTI_BB]

I think overall it was a good event, this was my first real dyno day that i attended, however the numbering was faulted imho, but overall good.
Saw some strong cars ran, although the overall opinion was that the dyno started off very stingy... thats what i heard atleast....

i was very impressed with the Revo 6R Polo GTI!! Big ups to them. Pity that Shaun is a very hard man to talk to, he is always busy with something...

Overall big ups to the VWclub crew!!

[BIGMIG]

Nice gesture. The wrc guys seemed very cool...

yes I agree they did seem cool. The guy that was pulling the cars on and off called me over after he had pulled my car on to the dyno to tell me that my gearbox mounting could be nackerd. Very nice he could of just ignored it an carried on but he didn't.

Go very burnt but had fun in the process

Dude, you should know by now, any dyno day, doesn't matter which club, if you pitch there at 10:00, chances that you'll dyno your car late in the afternoon is very good. Yes WRC didn't look quite hurried to get home early unfortunately but that's the way the cookie crumbles.

where are the results ?

I wasn't worried about the time the car got on the dyno as long as it eventually would, i knew i was going to be there the whole day and in no rush at all but by the way things were running they weren't even going to get the car dyno'd by Sunday. People were also claiming they had to be at places before the afternoon and were jumping the queue to get their cars dyno'd. Their should be no Queue jumping at all.

where are the results ?

Has to happen every time
