_ethrty-Andy_ 2136 Report post Posted October 14, 2013 Yeah I heard him mentioning that and I almost spat out my drink. surely its $6k not $16k. either way, makes my 540i kit at $600 odd look cheap haha We must do this event again, perhaps around late summer, early Autumn 2014/.. So 6 months ish? I'd like to think I will have some upgrades done to the upgrade already under the hood by then! If Im not doing anything i will come up for the weekend if someone can put me up for the night or two ha Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
central3 31 Report post Posted October 14, 2013 looks like a great day. Some sweet rides there. hopefully someone can organise something like this for Wtgn members. although i fear there isn't a rolling road dyno available locally. That someone could be you? I would be keen to be involved. Sorry but I didn't realise you were the M5 driver on Saturday - spent most of my time wondering how come you had 2 ladies in tow - now I know 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeffbebe 1560 Report post Posted October 14, 2013 How about we go all out for a 2 day event in late summer (end March) and combine upper and lower North Island - and anyone from the south who wants to catch a ferry? Presumably we can find a rolling road dyno somewhere halfway(ish)! And if not... Auckland's lovely in March. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Presumably we can find a rolling road dyno somewhere halfway(ish)! And if not... Auckland's lovely in March. good idea to keep the momentum going. In the past, we have done rather large meets at Taupo Motorsport Park which have worked well, a track day built in etc. best to avoid the temptation to do something over long weekends tho, many people have other plans already Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Presumably we can find a rolling road dyno somewhere halfway(ish)! And if not... Auckland's lovely in March. Sounds like a plan. Still, all the facilities are in Auckland, and it would make the most sense to stick with Torque performance, couldn't imagine a better venue. (plus offer consistent readings being the same dyno from a comparison standpoint) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NZ BMW 368 Report post Posted October 14, 2013 Wow, great variety of cars - is someone going to post up a table of all the numbers? It would be interesting how well some of the older cars are still performing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm in Melbourne at the moment but will chase everyone up and collate all the results as soon as I get back and post. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaveO 47 Report post Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) Great pics, Roo. Dave must be stoked with the M5. It's pristine and made great power. I am very stoked I had a very enjoyable day. Would love my M5 to sound a bit more like Ray's M3 V8 one, which I assume is just intake/exhaust More than happy with the power it made!
