Hi mate, I don't know why your mate cringed as PE are well respected, if you look back through the southern meets section you will find loads of RR days have been there and all very good days These have been run by Sussex,Surrey,Kent,Hampshire ect ect.
Cheers

PE are very good....prodrive used to use thier rollers for their cars to get their benchmark figures... a lot of people voice their problems about rr's but PE have got tonnes of experience and some experienced operators.

Cheers for the replies. I recon we might try the Surrey Rolling Road. They've got a temperature controlled room to help provide consistant results between days.

Anyone else on here used them?

Cheers

I spoke with the lads again today and they won't change their opinions of PE. One of them has a mate of a mate who had a bad experience there...

It will have to be somewhere else for us.

Each to their own, but I have been to a number of rolling roads, and there are only two I would go back to!!

One of them is Power Engineering, the other is Minispeed but they only have 2WD rollers.
