Default Rolling road results....

had the car on a mobile rolling road on sat morning. not sure how realistic the figs are, especially the estimated flywheel fig

acts were 35 - 40 whilst on the rollers during the run

according to the graph the car made 296bhp @ wheels @ 5550rpm torque was 285 @ 5250.

car ran up to 6500rpm but power was dropping off at 6k.

the graph shows an estimated fly wheel fig of.......... 358

surely if the wheel fig is about right i'd be looking at a max of 30 - 40 bhp transmission losses?

really nice smooth graph tho - no dips or spikes. wish i had a scanner - i'd post it up. if anybody can be bothered i can fax it over if you've got a scanner?


still, it was done for free and it didn't blow up
