We are about 10 miles south of where the M25 meets the M4.

Could be tempted to come along, do you need to book or is it just a matter of turning up?

Fingers crossed I might even have the E30 back on the road in time.

Just reply to this thread by saying you would like to come and you pay on the day. If for any reason you cant make it then send me a PM so we can keep track of the numbers.

Ok, how's that then... PM me if you prefer. I've only ever put my car on the dyno using an Autologic.

Most of them just run with the TC off, if they are troublesome, then you do a run till it cuts, turn the car off, turn it on and it should run fine.
