| Right, Im wanting to gauge the interest on this, also if anyone has any suggestions of were to go (remeber not all rollers are suitable for lowered cars) or recommend somewhere you have used before.
The Date may possibly be in the new year to give people the chance to sort there cars out.
So to get the list going:
1) Cymro - Mk3 Polo Coupe 2) 3)

| its the distance thats the issue for many i think. closest mostly used one to me is got boost nr port talbot but thats a 3/4hour trek for the rest of us. so some traveling will be required by some. | |

it may be an idea to get somewhere that is keen to help people out, a bit of a tune at the same time etc. | |

| nooooooooooooooooooooooo incorrect loss factors on my last run there -------not recomended in the slightest.
bhp came out at 164 when with losses it should have been 188, operator left the correction for a previous RWD vehicle in the computer car and never tested the losses correctly for my car..
avoid in my book | |

| ask them matt. see what sort of price they want for a club tuning/power run day.
if they offer tuning sessions can you ask if they do carbs (including bike ones) too. | |
