Hello everybody,

Firstly thanks to Nick and others that organised the day - I have never been to a Dyno Day before, but this one seemed to run quite efficiently, bar the small "incident" on the barby

It was nice to put some faces to names on the forums, everybody was friendly and approachable - it was great to have a chat to a few of the guys, and check out a lot of different cars!

The day was quite an eye opener for myself personally, as I found out a lot about my own car that I didnt know about (in particular its craphouse tune that was stopping it from making the power it should have). For those that wern't there, it made 303.7kw at all 4.

Congrats to Buster for breaking the dyno on the day, although a certain Midnight Purple R33 GTR also did quite well to pull 600kw at all 4....

....Apparently it was"stock".

I also took a number of videos of some cars on the dyno completing all their power runs (BU5TER, SNG, CNG, ZEU5, and Merli's 600Kw run!).

If somebody lets me know whats the easiest way of sharing these, (it will be ages before I can get around to hosting them)I'm happy to provide them (providing its OK by the owners of the respective vehicles). I took a few photos of various cars too.

Anyhow, again, I'd like to say thanks for organising, had a great time, and looking forward to the next one. (Hopefully my car will be sorted by then!)

Cheers,

Chris.

Chris, again your welcome and well done on such a well presented car - im sure with a good tune you will be seeing some very impressive results

[carlo]

I can arrange hosting of the videos. Just drop me a line if you want to put them up on the interweb

[Kinks]

the CRD guys love a laugh, everyone hosed themselves on the PF day when the poo-brown beetle pulled 195rwkw
