Who's was the silver S4 saloon, registration starting V3? I have a minute of footage of their car on the rollers, if you want me to upload to You Tube and post the link on here, let me know. The V3 is the only part of the reg that shows on the clip due to the fan being in the way, so car won't be fully identifiable. PM me if you'd prefer.

Yeah ok. As long as its anonymous. Hopefully the back of my head is not in shot either?

Don't worry Spen, you're not in shot, Mihnea makes a guest appearance though. The clip only really works well with sound. I don't know the technical reason behind it, but I think due to the footage being uploaded via the SDSL link we have at work, you gained that extra 1 bhp that was eluding you on the day. Congrats fella.

Thanks Jarv. I think I could get 1bhp by taking the rhd headlight out or removing the cats.

Next time we should use a microphone so we can cut down the fan noise!!
