Default Newbie Rolling Road ???

I'm from Wallasey and have yet to get my car on a rolling road.. given its likely to give poor results but I need a starting figure!

Anyone got any suggestion for somewhere near I could contact to arrange a Rolling road day?

Would anyone be interested?

System R did a fine job IMO, the only ones who tned to moan are the ones who's figures are lower than they had somewhere else or where 'hoping' for . Having experienced Well Lane, System R was a much better set up, more friendly and accurate...
My bog standard WRX with no mods had over 260bhp there but whats at the fly doesnt count unfortunately
I reckon they'll be nearer ones to the Wirral than Warrington Pimmo, but system r are a good local resource for us telliners and Wire folk etc

Where is Prosport, Rolling Road Day sounds good so long as im not working that weekend, had to pull out of another RRD thats been organised on another thread, but i would like to know how many horses are alive under the bonnet. Im reckoning that its more than the alleged standard 240PS, as my little wrx stayed on the bumper of a colleagues STI, & my wheels were spinning off the start -poor technique by me, but he claims his car was not boosting right, Oh and it was in a safe traffic light location, dual carridge way with no junctions for a half mile. Thought i'd add that before i get accused off being irrisponsible.

Hope you can make it, if only to ask you what "rosted" is?
