Yeah it was a good day, even though we had only one run when we were told there would be three, got no printout???? Mini world didn't take picture's of the only two Bini's and the calibration of the rollers is very much questionable (3 runs would of maybe uncovered that???)
But even so yes it was a very good day.

Many apologies mark i know you were disapointed. I have outlined the reasons for the change of format in the main topic area.

No probs, i know non of it was your fault, it was still a great day regardless.

I went to a different RR today in Leicester.

The thread on 16V is here:

Looks like the Wheels figure given at Lincoln is V similar to Leicester. 124@ lincoln - 127@ Leicester
However the flywheel figure is Very different and what I consider to be more realistic. 162@Leicester rather then 186@lincoln.

So guys if the same is true for other cars the power at wheels figure is quite accurate but the flywheel reading is prob a bit high.

That sounds more like it i've had my supercharger checked out (after me and my sister got stupid figures) and it's working spot on, it's blowing 10psi more than my sisters standard S, so me and her are going next week to get some proper figures, and see what the difference REALLY is between the two.

This is where I did my latest power runs. I can highly Recommend them!

I am sorry if I have caused any offence.

But I was after a very accurate power figure to check my engine was working as it should after such a large series of modifications. I was also after multipule runs to see if there was any difference between different setups. I could not get what I was after at the Paul Goy RR day which is why I have since gone elsewhere. I though I would post my findings incase anyone else was in a similar situation.

This has nothing to do with the running of the day and the day it self. I really enjoyed myself all day. It was good to talk to other people as well as fix another mini owners car.
