I think somewhere like powerstation or WRC is the go. I know with reference to the powerstation that there is plenty of room as it is on an industrial estate - big car park etc. Back when I was a member of the corrado forum we used to combine the dyno with a bit of a show and shine, chin wag, selling off old bits etc etc. I like the idea os the north south split as it can be a real pain if you have to drive for miles.

I'd be up for powerstation - do we know what equipment they use and how accurate it is AND how competent the RR technician is?

Richard and dirk @powerstations are very good and their RR machine was used by EVO in the E36 M3 ring project. Been there a few times myself in the P1 days. As RR goes, any figures derived can only be taken with a pinch of salt.

I'll be up for powerstations, nearby burger van is good. Wonder if Licho still has the GT40 on display there?

I thought the plan was north / south RR days?

Also, if I lived in Scotland I wouldn't call Silverstone central :bash:

Nige,

Understand what you are saying but its hard to suit everyone and events have to be biased towards the location of the majority.

I have missed the North/South event thing, I thought we were aiming for something central.
