My thoughts as well, but they was all tested on the same rollers at the same time so its compairable

Well done on J1mbo's feature as well

They were all tested the same way and all tuners were happy.

We did everything we could for a fair test and level playin field.

I'm not a RR tuner, but with reputations at stake i'm sure if the losses were a problem, we would have heard about it on the day.

p.s. Thanks for the kind words.

Cheers for the comments guys! Genuinely appreciated!

The trans losses do appear high, which is one of the reasons we printed all the data - to give a better idea of exactly what happened on the day.
