Unfortunately they only do Saturdays for block bookings now (sorry John), minimum of 10 cars, most of the up and coming Saturdays they are free.

Btw they no longer have a problem with Haldex on S3's, they just switch it off do the run, and then we would need someone with VAG-com to turn off the error code [img]images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Let me know what Saturdays suit the majority, preferably before Oct 12th [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img]

How about the 11th then? [img]images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
This week is too soon for everyone to arrange, 27/9 and 4/10 I'm driving Scotland [img]images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

I wonder why you want it before the 12th? [img]images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] [img]images/graemlins/grrr.gif[/img]

sounds like pulling the haldex fuse. and running FWD. [img]images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
this was an option they mentioned last time, and not one SitaS3 or myself were keen on.

Ill just spectate and join in the banter. [img]images/graemlins/033102talk_1_prv.gif[/img]

11th is good for me, and the 12th is in my diary for some reason [img]images/graemlins/1syellow1.gif[/img]

Strange this Haldex thing - is that what they do, pull the fuse so its only front WD? How do other 4wd rolling roads get over it?

no they don't normally pull the fuse for this - it is down to the way the car is tied down that matters. AMD and Interpro both do it without pulling the fuse.

The last person I heard (S3Mon - Mr Elman) who had his car rolling roaded without the fuse in had to pay for a new gearbox/haldex stuff after a RR in Bracknell (iirc) did this and burnt it out..

G-force offered to remove my fuse after my car was bouncing around on their rollers and I wisely declined the offer.

I'll probably turn up to spectate like Paul nonetheless.
M3 CSL - Silver Grey, a few options.
