Thanks to everyone who came and I hope everyone had fun. My wife just got home and said I'm making the house stink of BBQ. Lol.

I appear to have bought a diesel - I made more torque than ponies, and the rev limiter kicked in at 6k rpm.  |

Great turn out!!
Resounding success once again.
Well done master chef!!
I was not even going to go on the dyno but I had an uncontrollable urge to get on. Lucky I did because the horse power gods were in my favour. 120.4 whp or 148hp at the crank this time as opposed to 109whp last year.. funny thing is that I have not changed anything apart from recatting!! Bizadre

Thanks for organising @horney and thanks for hosting skuzzle ! Was a good day, and nice to see a variety of beasty (and not so beasty   ) motors on the rollers. Wish I could have got there earlier! Will have to get back down at some point so I can get on the rollers and get my timing checked, at the moment it's a case of putting the roof down and putting earplugs in so I can pretend it's running right lol Good to meet those I spoke to - if I didn't speak to you, don't take it personally, I'm usually the quiet one in the corner so meets are always a slight challenge! Will look forward to some graphs in the rolling road thread, hint hint  |

Thanks for the exhaust demo wannabe, sounded good! No worries - always happy to help spend other people's money lol It's not that cheap but I'm very happy with the character it has! I was pondering on the way home (in the pissing rain - roof down, speed up, naturally ) about how it sounds different on motorway journeys, and I think maybe it sounds different when hot? Is that even possible?? We didn't really find a long stretch to demonstrate it under high-rev constant load and it wasn't that warmed up, but on the motorway it sounds more tuneful and harder-edged. Maybe it's because the power is up past the 4k rpm cruising engine speed? Or that in the outside lane the sound bounces off the concrete central reservation and seems louder because of it? Either way, it helps stop journeys being boring lol |

So as some of would have seen there was a GoPro set up behind the dyno. I think I got all the the RWD cars but I know I missed some of the FWD.
There were 28 cars dyno'd on the day so it will take a little while to process all the runs I videoed.
It was shot in 4K so if you have a new fancy tele you can watch your run on the big screen.
If people want me to send them the footage of their dyno run that's fine, but please bear in mind it will take a few days to sort through everything.
