a power run will be about 25-30 quid. a full tune would be about 500 quid depending on what needed doing etc

why would he be taking the piss? grasstracking often needs little engines, my mate used to do it, always used 1000cc minis
i've never paid more than 30 quid for a power run

if you drive in off the street and want a run looking about £50-£100..
If you go on a Rolling road day would get a run for about £20-£30
I've organised a few now...

1 run = 1 hour of time really so we charge £45+vat for one run, a rolling road tune up is £120+vat........
