I wouldn't worry too much jamie, I've been to a few rr's now, and never yet seen a car go pop! Still, there's always a first time

Like you say, check your levels, make sure your cars nice and warm before your run, and bring a warm coat and hat, it gets very cold stood around watching cars on the rr.
Might be a good idea to take it out for a serious thrash before you go on too, make sure nothing is wrong on the road, before you go on the rollers.

See you saturday,
chris.

Make sure your tyres are inflated to the correct presssures too.
Under inflated tyres add drag.

NB my car is still in bits and hasnt moved for 3 weeks
Tommorrow it all should be done.

I'll pop by tomorrow *****, get that old knackered optimax sucked out of your tank. I know a safe way of disposing of it, but will have to use my tank to transport it there
