So I've pulled together the final list for Saturday 13th May, apologies to those who cannot make it however this is the only viable option.

Others are welcome to join - please keep me informed.

Have a look at the summary - any corrections please let me know, I will confirm to Charlie on Monday.

Good work Mark. As you know, my 335d has a DMS remap, though we'll see which one on the day as it's been re-done since last Rolling road day!

Of course yes... not really populated the mods - only those people remarked upon - I've added to the master list.

Noted...

F30Andy needs to run first and disappear to let the staff in - on the basis he's go an sDrive, t makes sense to do all the sDrives together. Charlie can then set up for xDrive and run the rest of us.

Once all confirmed I'll get times for kick off etc. Anyone who doesn't want to stay for the duration can then come and go (ie. you can drive down at a respectable time!).

The premier in is good place to meet.

You also have Costa Coffee just by M3 with lots of parking and another drive through costa opening next to Costco Farnborough (need to check if it will be done by May)


If anyone fancies lunch /dinner afterwards theres Heron on the Lake in Fleet.

Yes - date now confirmed for 13th May.

F30Andy - 9am start time, does that cause you a problem?

@Smee (why can't I tag you?!) - no charge for additional runs "...so long as you don't take the pi**..." ?

Tengocity - its fair to say not working myself too hard these days ?

9am will do me just fine.

I will probably be there a bit earlier on the off chance though.

Cars to develop best figures obviously they need warmed up and pre cal dyno, doing 3 runs off the bat isn't going to produce accurate/scientific figures with tuning box.

I'd suggest 5 runs, 2 standard then you get your stock figures/dyno calibrated and warmed up then tuning box.

TBF any tuner who doesn't do at least 1 warm up is taking the piss. Saying that they may already do a warmup/cal thus everyone is getting 2-3 runs minimum.

All cars i have dynod they have 3 runs, 1 warmup/cal then 2 power runs 3rd always generally gives best result.
