was a great day and had a great turnout with lots of different cars attending so heres some pics of a few:
clean mk2 golf:

My mate Ryans 250bhp astra c20let:

Citroen C2 Loeb edition, first I had ever seen and regularly sees the track, stripped interior and 145bhp!


chris's mondeo V6:

Saxo VTS made a very healthy 135 bhp (has manifold, enclosed induction kit and exhaust):

corsa 1.4 16v:

had loads of clio sports turn up, all of them making 160 bhp, even the 182's made 165bhp:

^^^^the car in the middle of that pic was great, 2.0 turbo conversion and is built purely for performance and track use. my favourite car of the day

Tvr griff 500 went on the rollers but struggeld to make much more than 280 bhp. had a problem with holding onto the power past 4500 rpm. Has a race spec engine built by TVR racing, should make 400+ bhp

The TVR owner then went home and came back with this BMW ZM roadster. absolutely amazing car, perfect in every way. made book figures of 338 bhp:

Kris turned up in his z20let corsa C, has been on before and made 182 bhp. after having us build a full exhaust it went back on yesterday and made 198 bhp soon going for a VXR turbo and a remap.


then a corsa VXR arrived............and broke before it even went on the rollers

turned out it was the coolant pipe going to the turbo, had to remove the turbo housing and fix it before it went on. which it did and made 192.5 bhp

had a lot more interesting cars on but didnt manage to get pics of them all. Hoping to have a VX220 / lotus day soon

i knew them clios didnt make said power but noone believed me
whenever iv seen one in action they always seem slower than the power suggests.
someone else also commented on vagweb they regularly get less than 172 or 182.
saying that i do like them and they are good cars

I read in a French hot hatch mag a Clio Sport rr feature. 172's with exhausts, manifolds, filters were making 135bhp at the wheels. Don't know what that is at the fly?

Z4 M Coupe (Roadster is the soft top version ) is lovely with M3 CSL alloys on it.
Some lovely cars there, the Corsa C Turbo must be rapid.
