Re: Harewood Hillclimb - Historic Meeting June 2016
My plan is still not going straightforwardly.
Took the Hoosley to Southam to get it set up ready for Harewood.
Onto the rollers, just started loading it up a bit & THE DYNO BLEW UP!
Hope to be able to pick the car up later this week in time for Harewood
The only good thing was it was showing 97 at the wheels @ 5,000 rpm just before the dyno pump let go. So hopefully a bit more to come yet

Re: Harewood Hillclimb - Historic Meeting June 2016
97bhp@ 5,000 revs,that must be 120ish at the flywheel
From a normally aspirated 1293 ?
I hope they recalibrate the dyno when they fix it

Re: Harewood Hillclimb - Historic Meeting June 2016
Quite frustrated that I haven't been able to enter. The Unipower now has new wheels and tyres (££ ouch) but still needs a cage and I've been let down with that , so with no other Mini up and running I'll be aiming to pop along for a gander. Nick if you still want a look at those overalls let me know.
