They don't have the hub dynos where the wheels are removed & the hub is bolted. They measure wheel horse power & have a process that calculates transmission loss & hence engine power.

Normaly a dyno operator will check if the car is running lean or rich by checking its AFR (Air Fuel Ratio) it's measured by inserting a wideband O2 sensor into the exhaust tail pipe. DET is detonation (a result of running the incorrect AFR or incorrect timing) basicaly DET will kill your engine. Any good dyno operator should not run a car on the dyno without checking the above as they risk doing damage to your car :shock:

I've checked with the rolling road and by the time we go there, they will have head phones that listen for detonation and they always use a gas analyzer to ensure the mixture is correct.

As we are upto 16 cars, is it possible for the people that are definately coming, to PM me and arrange for a £10 deposit. As with everything I know some people will not be able to make it, plus a couple of the guys don't have a car ready yet.

We need at least 10 definate cars to make it viable for Revivals. Thanks

I have hightlighted the people who have already sent a deposit. There's no limit, but its probably a 10am start to 4pm or later. I'm was looking at about 12 cars, as each one will take 20 minutes to strap down etc. Can I add your name ?
