Title: S2smarts - BBQ - Sunday 21st August 2016
Post by: CrazyG on July 07, 2016, 05:14:53 PM
As per the subject, Rob is holding a BBQ event for his customers
From 10am to 4pm.
l see this as an oppurtunity for a mini-meet for those ForFour
owners close enough, eager enough, brave enough to show the
other Smart owners that will attend that we are also part of the
Smart family.

It'll also be a great oppurtunity to have a good look over the
S2smartsRacing Brabus ForFour.....for anyone interested....
as well as the Racing ForTwo that Rob used to race.

So...apart from yours truly, who else is going to trundle along?
Gregk2......Problemchild.....Scoobysook....Musmart....
woody-r....Cecil.....Edrx7...rjkennedy....mazzieL...


SatNav location:- WD18 9QP
Unit 2,  Vale Industrial Park, Tolpits Lane, Rickmansworth.

It is supposed to be for his customers, but I've asked if it's
ok for the odd ForFour forum member to sort of 'gate crash'...
I wasn't given a "No".........so read into that what you may.

Mind, it's a bit of a long trek for you.......but if ya fancy it..... ;)

so if anyone is interested, please email Tony with your request at
    mail@tune4performance.com   together with details of the
vehicle that you would like run up on the rolling road dyno.

If it was a 'no-go' then I would have amended/updated the thread...

So....JUST WHO IS COMING to this ?

CrazyG....me
Ocracoke
9582djk

Anybody else ?   ??? :(

I mean...come on...here's a chance to meet up and chat with fellow
owners of ForFours...(as well as the ForTwo/Cossblade/Roadster mob)...
with free drinks (albeit non-alcoholic), and a BBQ.
And it's going to be a nice sunny day....so what's stopping all the other
local/fairly local/not so local forum members attending then, eh ?
Scoobysook, Musmart, Cecil, woody-r, rjkennedy, MazzieL to name
just a few ?

Oh, and can I again say that anyone who wishes to have a free dyno run
of their car should contact Tony at Tune4performance....places are limited.

Today was THE DAY of the BBQ....and there were 9 ForFours !
Ok, so 2 belonged to S2...Robs CDI and the race Brab.....
but hey, that left 7 others....6 members, and 1 who has now joined...
(at long last)..Dave44, who bought my previous Brab ForFour !

I could put something up on the event, but I think I'll just sit back
and let the members who attended post up their comments and
pictures...if any !

Great to be back at S2Smarts for the BBQ, very happy to see and talk to fellow ForFour owners as well! A good selection of other Smart owners there as well. Fantastic to see the Rob/G et al there, many thanks to them for organising this.

The pictures I took - http://wirralsmarts.co.uk/events.php?event=s2smarts_BBQ_2016

I did record a few videos of dyno runs (mine included) but I need a bit of time to edit them to a reasonable size/format before I can release them ;)

(Above)....The S2smartsracing Brabus ForFour....

I only took 3 pictures...as I spent most of my time socializing,
so excuse my crummy pictures please.
Here's the left hand side (where S2 and Tune4Performance is located)

(http://i865.photobucket.com/albums/ab218/CrazyG_photos/20160821_103544_zpstsz4gvjf.jpg)
Ocracoke is standing in front of the Race ForFour  :D
Cecil is in the green polo shirt on the right....
There were loads more Smarts further up on the left...
(after the Range Rover etc...) I just didn't get them in the frame.

And on the opposite side to S2....(the 'rubbish' is not Robs),
and again, there were more Smarts further up but not in frame.
(http://i865.photobucket.com/albums/ab218/CrazyG_photos/20160821_103526_zpsabdzdk5a.jpg)


Oh, and 'funny' of the day....was when Ocracoke put his 1.3
up on the dyno...for the fun of it !
Note the mad dash 'Christmas Tree' lights that came up after the run  :o
(Soon sorted by disconnecting the battery for 5 mins)

A black Brab  :P

It belongs to digi-roadster. It is being 'worked on' by Rob (S2), but
it is not yet roadworthy.
