DamanC Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Following on from this thread my thing has been done. I have booked sunday 30th March for a mkivsupra.net rolling road shootout at Engine Advantages in Witham Essex. EA is equipped with a Hofmann Dynatest 112, which is a 2 and 4 wheel drive rolling road capable of speeds up to 150mph and 535bhp per axle. The rolling road incorporates data analysis and logging software to ensure the optimum mapping for all driving conditions. The last local event a couple of years ago went down very well so I cirtianly recomend this one The cost per car is only £30 and if it is the same as last year (waiting confirmation) you get two runs. A printout(s) is provided at the end of the run too. kick off at 10am so we need to be there around 9.30am (ouch ) For this to happen we have between 10 and 30 places to fill. Please only add your name to the list if you are fairly sure you can make it. Depending on when we finish there are numerous nice pubs with ample parking in the area that im sure we will visit for a drink and perhaps a bite to eat. 1. Daman 2. 3. 4. 5.

tooquicktostop Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I would love to bring my car to this, when you say the dyno has a max power does that mean if you run more you cant attend?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pig Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Nothing stopping you from attending fella But what happens if your over 535bhp? also, is that at the wheels or converted figure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieP Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 If it only does 535bhp per axle then not a lot of point in you single supra boys going:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letmeshowyou Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Ron Kidell's old Skyline has been on the dyno there and that was a shade under 1000bhp. I believe 535 per axle actually means per axle, as in each corner of the car! Doubt we'll have anyone runing anywhere near that kind of power Jamie, bring the Monaro!

Im sure its not each corner,each axle means a pair of wheels, not enough for my monaro:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tooquicktostop Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I would be up for this if it can be confirmed that a 535bhp+ car can get a run and readout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DamanC Posted January 27, 2008 Author Share Posted January 27, 2008 IIRC 'Afnel's' old car was rather beefy too. Ill check with them and let you guys know a definate answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

letmeshowyou Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Jamie, Ron's car definitely put down just under 1000 there. My friends GTR put down 550 at the wheels there aswell - the Monaro will be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s crane Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 I may come along but my new car has only got 231 bhp:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letmeshowyou Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 I popped in at lunch time, and Jamie is right - it's rated to about 535 at the wheels (beyond that there is potential of the rollers slipping) Steve - what you got now?
