sounds like a good idea. what about if it's £2 each, half to the person who guesses the closest and the other half to charity? know it won't be a lot but every little helps.

will get them to crank the straps a few more times for you....

reckon i could work mine out fairly close. will take a few sums so be back later with that.. wrc before powerstaion re-map, they did a before run and after run so the difference between wrc/powerstation = powerstation post re-map/wrc.... think it can work kinda....

How about to make it fair, we have to guess the total BHP for all of the cars that go on the rollers, probably a fairer way of doing it...

Just a thought,
as steve said a few of us have been on the rollers in the last few month, so have a good idea what we should have, give or take 5 -10BHP, maybe a little to easy for some.

Good man

Never been on the rollers so I could be way out 218bhp (standard) + centre de-cat & BB (18bhp) = 236bhp (maybe)!!

If I get over that I'll be well chuffed anyway so will not care if I don't win the pot!!

Doesn't charity begin at home.

To make the draw better, how about guessing the 3 most powerful cars and the combined BHP, closest match takes the pot

Because that would single people out, even lower powered cars should be equally included.
