I think it would be a nice idea to hold a BHP leader board on the site, probably in the MKIV technical section as a smaller heading.
Basically this thread is to see what people opinions are on the matter, and to request permission from the mods to set something like this up. As I’ve said in the other thread I wouldn’t mind keeping it updated and generally looking after it as I would really like to put something back into the club that I’ve got a lot out of.
I would hope that everyone would take a section like this as a laugh and not like some people have suggested. I.e. arguing about people’s claims etc.
However, there is usually always one, so I reckon proof would have to be given in the form of a scan of your DYNO graph. Also, If any discrepancies arise and dummies get thrown out etc, then whether or not a BHP figure is included would go to public poll, along with evidence!! So emailing the person in charge of the chart and getting them to add the data would be the best way to do this.
Every member (I would say paid up member too) would be able to submit their DYNO’s and get involved, as to not restrict the initiative to the select top few which I would say is wrong as we are a club and we need to get everyone involved or its not club spirited.
Anyhows, my suggestion to how it could be set up is as follows:
Headings:
Member (ie. Matt_H)
Model (GZ TT)
Type: JSPEC / UK
Year (i.e 96)
Basic modinfo (i.e BPU or Single etc)
BHP at Fly (i.e 410)
BHP at wheels (i.e 340)
Date of DYNO
Link to members garage for more info on spec ect (if garage is available)
Without complete information a BHP claim would not be added to the chart!!
I would also suggest that all the above headings could be sorted in ascending / descending order like excel and the garage itself so people can find a car easily.
The chart would not only be a fun leader board for people to see how there own vehicles compare and for them to become involved in a club initiative, but also for a member to get an idea of what power they maybe looking for and what needs to be done etc.
Also a high light for the most power TT, most powerful car overall and the most powerful N/A and N/A T/TT.
So hopefully we can get this a goer more or less. Please add comments below, but please don’t add things like, well its just going to turn into a big argument, cos im sure that it would only be a few people if any that would get strung up about it. It would be far better to just see how it goes first and scrap it latter if it doesn’t work out rather than just shooting it down before it begins.
