Oh boy are you lot going to be upset when you get your results.

1 - PS rollers are notoriously stingy with bhp figures.

2 - Last time i was there (5 or 6 weeks ago) they said the 4wd figures were off a little because of some water damage to the front roller section (whatever that means i dunno).

My WRX ppp made about 230 bhp lol. Absolute joke.

Ah well, sorry for the mini rant - i hope they've got the rollers sorted now (they should have had time to sort them out) and you all enjoy the day.

Powerstation aren't getting their system sorted until they move next month. Its being done on insurance (about £16k I think)

Yes, they are under reading by about 40bhp at the moment.

Well I have my graph from last time I was there so If they are well out then this will show and they can then explain why we are paying £25 each to use knackered equipment.

Nick,

Quite quite seriously - i think you need to talk to Dirk or Richard there and try to get some comment on this problem.

I was extremely pissed off when i got such a low result. I had TWO prior PS prints and showed them the figures, Richard simply shrugged it off and still took £25 off me.

You have a shootout arranged that is going to turn into a very crappy day imho. I hope for you it doesnt but marklemac and me are both saying the same thing here - bewarned.

Oh and also - Richard told me he thought the front rollers were down "only about 5bhp or so".

BS tbh.

Right, had a good day at Powerstation today. First car went on and yes, the figures were down by quite a bit. Mine then went on and they were also down so I showed my graph from last time. Another car went on who hadn't done much from last time and his figures were also down.

They then used a Citroen C2 GT to test both sets of rollers to see which ones were down and found the problem to be with the front rollers as the car came out at 110BHP on the front rollers and 125BHP on the rear rollers.They then said if we all still wanted to run there would be no charge.

We had someone available to work out how much the rollers were down and corrected accordingly.

18 Cars ran and everyone chipped in £10 each which was presented to Rich at the end which more or less had to be forced in his pocket as he didn't want paying.

Big thanks to powerstation for a great day and look forward to the next time in the new place
