Hey Guys,

For all of those who are attending the dyno day this weekend..

Those that have pre-paid will recieve first option at the parking,
Photographers and staff please park OFF SITE, to the left of the building down Patiki road (other than those who I have made arrangements with)
There will be some spaces reserved for display cars and for platinum staff.

The rest of the parking will be on a first come first served basis off site of the actual event (there is plenty of parking close by)

The day is set to kick off at 930am, we will be holding a briefing at approx 9:20am
To make it easy from a logistics point of view aim to be here by 9:15 at the latest
The list here is the order of cars on the dyno, we will do our best to stick to it.
The BBQ will be running from 11am $2 donation appreciated :)
We will break for approx 20 mins at Midday

There will be reps from Fusion, Rota Wheels and MRP racing products feel free to have a chat with them about their products etc.
The Boys from Fatcat will be playing tunes feel free to come and say hello to them!

Professional photographers on the day will take pictures of your car the photos will be on facebook, and if you are after hi-res images please contact me and I can arrange it for you, at the discretion of the photographer.

Why was Llewyn's Supra DNF? Blow up or too powerful for dyno? :D

Was surprised to read the XR6t was highest for the day when I saw photos of the MK3 there...

Think they used the wrong fuel type and clogged up the injectors.

Actually problem was I moved house - Put spare set of plugs in a box and during the move 2 of the plugs got cracks (put in new plugs for dyno before I left home without checking).

After the dyno mess - Got home - Pulled plugs - put in new good (non cracked ceramics) plugs and she was right as rain.
