I had my 1380 Clubby set up by Spamspeed, well worth the 400 mile round trip from Yorkshire.

Cost about £70

The rolling road near peterborough is Pete Baldwin's, its just outside cambrige actually, just off the M11, he has 30-40 odd years of mini experience, i've never been there, but it has been recommended to me numerous times.

I went to an RR session at Spamspeed in Bristol on Saturday just gone and it was a fantastic day out (even though it was freezing cold and raining all day!)... I'd be interested in coming along if you arrange one :lol:

Hi Everyone, I am doing work experience this year at southam mini and metro centre. It is based in the midlands which presumably is pretty central to everyone!! they have a full rolling road facility and can give you a printout too. Power runs are usually only anout £20 and a full tune-up usually £50, but if a shoot-out day is arranged the prices will be cheaper for everyone. Let me know what u think!! Dudley.

Would be good - but I dont mind when!!

I did one earlier this year - it was covered by Mini Mag & my baby underperformed big style due to a slipping clutch - and cost £50... :lol:

Be interesting to see what the old thing will do now!

:grin:

mad max and i shall both need one to set up out new engines in around a month! I wouldnt mind paying extra to go see mr baldwin though, though if its just a power run then anywhere will do, cheapest the better! by the sounds of it mini and metro centre has a new set of rollers! this should be good for accuracy being new!
