Default Powerstation in Tewkesbury ... Anyone ran their car?

Off there tomorrow for a rr day from the rs mania lot, shud be a good crack, see how it differs from APT rollers ...

Anyone ran there and seen more power than they expected or less? Or is it quite accurate?

Did my 2nd oil change tonight, now on semi synthetic for 1000 miles, then will stick my mobil 1 15-50 in it

267/325 to beat

My brother run his Pulser there 4 years ago,

DIRK & RICH ?, used to be AUTOPOINT in THETFORD, NORFOLK, sold on to RAY MEARS, who was a garage owner of GM AUTOTECH, of HARLESTON, NORFOLK, but a builder at heart, who closed the business down and now does chips/maps from his home address, had a VERY god head porting person work for him called DARREN, now set up as DAMICO in EAST HARLING.
DIRK is VERY tall and thin, Rich shorter and a bit plumper.
They were both very capable of doing a good job, if they could be bothered.
