maybe its just me but i cant understand why you would want to drive hundreds of miles to scream the tits off your cars on a set of rollers and fookin pay £35 for it

someone rented a unit off me in my yard for 5 years with a top notch 4wd rolling road and my escort was never near the fookin thing

and the engine was never near a dyno either

still whatever turns you on eh
