Ha ha...are they finally chasing that up. It was from when I took the car to QST...I registered whilst at QST but coz I'd gone through that morning before registed, they don't backdate. I mailed them proactively to say hey, you haven't charged me ... and I've chased it up ... but nothing. So what have you had through?

Ha ha we went to brands hatch in September and I paid for a return journey £4. Few weeks later get a fine in a post for £60 something quid. I appealed right away with my return payment receipt. Than they send me a letter saying that, their record shows I made a payment for 2 journey but one more is outstanding. And they are prepared to let it go if I simply pay the £2 charge. I called them up because there were no dates on the letter thinking WTF? How is that possible I made 3 journey in one day. Turns out one of them was for December 2015

they guy suggested I apeal since I did not own the car. But I asked if they would chase the old owner and he said yes they would. So I though for £2 it's not worth the hassle writing them letters and you getting in more trouble lol. So I told they guy on the phone, let me pay the £2 to make it easy since I know the guy who didn't pay it on the first place

so yeah you owe me £2 ha ha. Would you like to set up a payment plan? I don't take cheques tho ha ha.

Nice one Ade!

Zebede - You ok with 12.15?

Post by **MrHilario** » Fri Nov 11, 2016 10:59 am

I know it's a bit late but is there anything I should do/check before the dyno tomorrow? I've never put a car on one before? Do I need to check tyre pressures? Full tank of fuel etc? Or is it ok to just rock up and go? Cheers

I've had mine dyno'd 3 times I think - no special prep really. Tyre pressures and a full tank of 99 sound like good ideas though.

Only thing I will point out is that the B7 is really really susceptible to heat soak with the poor airflow you get on the dyno....so, I'd make sure the bonnet stays open.

Since we are eliminating the biggest variable, the "gasket" between the steering and the seat

full tank of Tesco finest and correct tyre pressure will be sufficient

Ooooh look at Mr Formula 1 driver over here!

Does a few track days and thinks he's Lewis Hamilton!

A tank of Shell VPower will have to do. Cheers guys

See you in the morning Lewis

is that how it came across? Ha ha I actually meant all of us as drivers not you! Since it's the same guy testing.
Ps. I am more like Jenson Button actually since I am white and not winning as much

Thank you Simon for organising today!
Been a fun day either way even though we did not see the numbers we were hoping for.

Here is how the numbers stuck up:
Dan RS6 - 554bhp
Adrian c63 - 414bhp
Ilya Rs4 - 353bhp
Simon Rs4 - 295ish (slipping clutch and other unknown issues)

So after all this, I decided Fcuk it! I want another opinion on this lol so went to another Dyno straight away. Luckily there is one just 5min from my house would you believe that. And managed 370 on their dyno. Don't really understand how numbers can be so different. What is interesting torque is almost same as what AMD did when they mapped it 6months ago. Around 320fp.lb but peak bhp is 40+ lower. I suspect it's due to installing gruppeM and inlet spacers. Need map tweak ASAP. Or as Mike would say, "go to MRC"

Either way, I don't really care about the numbers. What is important is how the car feels on the road

AMD

Dyno dynamics

Dyno performance

No worries mate, good to see you all again, and nice to meet zebede too

Disappointed with what happened but hopefully won't be too serious, was fine driving home, revving well over 7k so not sure what it is, will get it up to AMD next weekend and see what they say

Nice pic too! Can you put up the normal one without my pathetic figures please? Want to use it. Cheers
