went to get car setup today on a rolling road.

The guys did 2 runs, to set the rollers i think, he left the car running and went and did something on a computer in the corner.

then something went bang, lots of smoke, ppl running about with fire extinguishers and me crapping my pants. Somebondy reallised my car was still running so they backed it off the rollers and loads more smoke started coming from the rr.

dunno what happend but my car didnt get mapped and the rr is out of action for a few days.

typical
