Thanks Ben for organising this meet, it was nice to meet people face to face and see so many 8'ts. :)

Yep, great day at Revo. The hospitality was great from all at Revo, I'll certainly attend something similar in the future, but I may not open the wallet quite so easily. And it wasn't for the lack of trying that I can't keep up with you Kid. Though I'll be a bit closer now, that V10 is scary to watch. It shouldn't move so quickly, but it does.

I also just wanted to add to my previous comments about the remap, no change in the fuel economy for me, but the performance change is astonishing. I was worried I wouldn't feel a benefit, but the way the car accelerates out of junctions and roundabouts now is almost a little unnerving. Its that much faster, I'm having to recalibrate my right foot.

i know its hard to do with this remap but try to back off a little on the throttle and maybe you will get better fuel consumption.
no forget that just put your foot down and have fun +++

OK. Two things
Here's the link to the coffee morning drive out, and I think everyone will agree that you can see we were all being sensible, as you'd expect.

Ten out of 10 there Mike. Am I right in guessing that you'll be glued to the TV for the day.
Unless you have a royal wedding invite, it's the only way you're going to be able to see that dress :ROFL:

There's a Royal Wedding? Who's the queen marrying? Is Phil the Greek Dead?

Will there be cake? :rolleyes:

tonupkid 15th March 2011 07:19 PM

Whoops..... Innit Royal???

There's nothing like a slice of cake to take the edge of... a cake knife

Singh 15th March 2011 07:36 PM

They are so excited about this Royal wedding over in the US, everyone kept asking me if Kate or Katy whatsit had chosen her dress yet. :Confused:
On another note though, my sister had a meeting with the queen last week (RanjA8 on the forums wife) about Leamington's new justice centre.

Conan_the_Librarian 15th March 2011 07:55 PM

The queen got to meet your sister, Amar. :eek: Bet she's chuffed! Being a queen can play havoc with your back what with high heels and stuff...........................
