Escort Cosworth is going on the rollers after the ad break.

Not sure, but he got 546.1 bhp according to the rolling road they used.
Commentator was a bit of an idiot though - 'Having spent 100k on the car, do we think he will have improved at all over the original power figure?'

He was leaping to the defence of the Escort (naturally) as he assumed you were dubious about said rollers.

well they usually use the rollers at thorney motorsport for that programme, which is probably the most accurate up to date and advanced 4wd setup they have in the uk.
