To avoid a blatent thread hijack, in the TVR forum;

If you need any cars to help get the rolling road up and running, then I'll come!

ok, I'm sure you have access to plenty of horses to play with, and I know this is a bit cheeky. I'll even pay!

Well done Julian, I'll drop my low loader in for a Dyno shootout - should get about 60bhp!, I think you'll need to install a bathroom in the unit as well now as your lights will be burning away 24/7

I have a dyno plot already for the Corrado, but hell, why not!

[Jon Ison]

Does he have a weigh bridge too ?? I could bring the iccle one up if you do the weight/bhp calculation too

[Jon Ison]

Are you allowed to say that on PH?

[Boosted Ls1]

I'll just have to bring the old 9000T along to that Done the wishbone bushes so now it can do full mph, right up to 70 mph

Boosted.

Should bump up the power to weight a bit.

Should have got mine done when it didn't have a chassis.

btw, if you have the time come to the Nott'num curry night so we can debate camber loss all night

4 poster sold to a mate with agriff and westfield and soon-to-be radical .. went last night.

[chassis 33]

Fair cop. Radicals are awesome beasts played with one at Snett about this time last year.

Without wanting to re-open that debate from the Cerb forums around September last year which to the onlooker was hilarious, though I imagine not for someone caught up in it, how do you calibrate a dyno, is it more checking all components are within dimesnional tolerance or is there a defined absolute unit of power you can test against?

There are a couple of RR round here but how you get a 1.1 Chav-mobile to run 200bhp with just a green cotton filter as an 'upgrade' is beyond me, maybe there is some truth in the blue washer jets give more power stories. Reckon I should put some on the racer?

I thought they deflected lasers so you can't get dun for speeding.

If they give more power too, then I'll definately be getting some.

Yep, count me in for that
I'd be even happier if I could get a Service/MOT while I was there, maybe sometime in mid April
And I'm sure theres a few more suspects I could round up

[trackcar]

it's like xmas again

...I thought you were a motor mechanic Joo, not a tea trader???

Ho hum, learn something new every day...
