You would have thought they would have explained it to you a bit more.

Ill put a picture up of the graph tomorrow.
To be fair to minispeed it was a club day with lots of cars one after another. not a full rolling rd session. I just wanted to know if the car was fueling correctly. And was more interested in that fact.
I should have asked a few more questions but the bbq was just hotting up outside and the smell was just to tempting!

I see why you had to put bigger wheels on.

I had a very long look at your car at brooklands and got a few staps. And that's one thing I noticed was how low the engine sat in the frame. I see why a few people use sump guards as it's a very safe option. Did it hit at all on the rollers when you accelerated or de-accelerated.
I see why you had to put bigger wheels on.
It did not hit at all as the 12" wheels gave it just that little bit more clearance. to be honest the car is probably too low as thats how i like it and it handles great on the track. On other cars its not such a problem as they either have bigger wheels or they are not so low.
I am waiting for some news on a sump gaurd from pro motive as i would really like to use one, the mini ones do not fit as the front of the subframe is differant as far as im aware.
it has not caused me a problem so far but you do need to think about where you position the car when going over speed humps.
Thanks for the comments.

I'm sure my mate did get small footage of the old carb going round brands just before it let go, I'll see if he's still got anything and PM you
Oh and Minispeed is flywheel power and does over read compared with most rollers, been there with a couple of different cars before that I've had tested also elsewhere so I know they read a bit more output, good for pub ammo though!
Take it up to Sanspeed for a quick blast on either there Bosch or Dyno Dynamics if you want a true output
Nice work mate and yeah get a sump guard made up!

cheers mate,
would be good to see some footage of it from the outside. Did you watch the vid I put on youtube of the engine letting go? I did do a good job of it!

Not yet so will check it out now The footage my mate got wasn't of it letting go but I think the lap before when you was storming down a straight section
I know you did a good job of it because I saw you effing and blinding at your mate in the pits after
