Lightbulb Minisport Rolling Road, Anyone been before?

I've booked in at MiniSport @ Padiham for the rolling road to see what BHP my cars producing, costing £30. I just have a few questions...

1) Ive got a 51reg Bluefin'd ONE with K&N Pannel filter, anyone want to guess what BHP i'll get?

2) Anyone been there before? Is it good value? If so your thoughts and comments...

i reckon about 127bhp ;-)


used to take my classic down quite a bit. Speak to Rob on the rolling road, he's a top man and knows his stuff.
Look on some of the classic mini forums for reviews, there are a quite a few good ones...

Interested to hear how you come on, when's it booked in?

Better if you can stick in some shell or Tesco 99 octane, just to help prevent any knock on the RR.
