Might come along to this Equidistant between our Wellingborough workshop and our house. Not sure whether we will have a Scoob to come in though but you never know I will see if I can get some other local owners to come along.

Ta!

Just spoke to Paul and he is up for an impromptu dyno shootout in the afternoon if anyone is interested? Probably get through about 6 cars between 3 and 5pm. We have a Dastek 4wd rolling road dyno and plenty to look at in our workshop

Normal price for a power run is £50 +vat but we could do it for £40 inclusive.
If anyone is keen they can get their names down in advance, or you can freestyle it and make your mind up on the day! But bear in mind that there would need to be 5 or 6 people to make it feasible.

Ta,
Liz

Forgot to say - the bed of the dyno is fully adjustable so we can cater for different wheelbase cars and 4wd, fwd or rwd and even Hummers!
