Was speaking to Ricky Gauld the other day and Coach House (where he works now) are installing a brand new Dyno Dynamics 4 wheel rolling road. Will post up the opening date once I find out when it is. At last someone with a rolling road that knows Emerald

Going to have to ask him for a fitted price which includes a rolling road mapping session.....

Maybe get a Scottish Elises discount scheme worked out in advance....

Was round at Ricky's today. Big hole in the workshop floor. So should be up and running soon. Already book the first slot for a power run

.
Plenty people on here will tell you that his knowledge and expertise is legendary in the NE. He's been around for years almost as long as tut, well maybe that's stretching it a bit but you get the idea

.
Knows the Emerald system pretty well having done a few and with state of the art RR there will be no stopping him.

Couple of fliers I got handed today

As to the discount for SE members, I will see what I can arrange. But remember we are talking about Aberdonians here, not renowned for there generosity

Great news.

Ricky has been looking after my cars since 1999, and upgraded both of my Elises when they were in K mode to 190hp. He is one of the old school, if possible fix it, if not make a new part in his garage, then finally look at replacing it.

He has become a good friend and worked on my car until 0200 more than once to get it ready for Stelvio or the Scottish Championships. He also has a very good collection of Malts.

Just looking at fitting the correct sized S/C pulley and crankshaft pulley to N3, and it will need re-mapping, so great that Ricky will be able to do it. His first Hondata K-Pro mapping was done on Craig and my cars, with Corbie alongside as the pro, and he also cut his teeth on my DTA and Emerald on N1.

I only found out about Ricky a few months ago when one of the pilots at my work told me about him, He used to work for Jim when he had the Lotus dealership up here many many moons ago. Great to hear there will be somewhere in ABZ to take the car.

Just spoke to Ricky and the R/R should be here on Monday, and hopefully installed and calibrated by Wednesday.

Great news if he's doing emeralds - probably need to speak to him to understand what he can do for the VHPD flat spot and get some more oomph

Like the flyer.
