Why? been looking forward to seening it on the dyno.Seen it on the cruises but to here it fully reving would be good,.

If the spot is still open Ill take it but i have to do it early seen going home to get some sleep for work.


the spots yours mate, provided it's OK with mods and organisers- can't see why not.

My car just didn't get ready in time- teh way it is would probably see around 385rwhp but it's just not finished on the tune

I won't risk it for the sake of just being there.

Shame, I was looking really forward to it and meeting all you guys.....

Big thanks to Steve & Team at Redcliffe Dyno & Performance and AFF for a good, fun day out. RDP have a great facility and the staff were all friendly and welcoming.

Special thanks to Fiery for organising everyone and making it all happen without a fuss.

Congrats to Sledgehammer for the biggest number on the day at ~360hp and my drool award goes to Bundy for having one hell of a sweet Ute.

Yep... for sure. I have to go out there now.

We have just seen how freakin lousy a Unichip is. I had it dyno'ed at 121rwkw AFTER tune and today it pulls 140rwkw without tune, running a bit rich at idle and up high, but better than nothing.

Thanks to RDP for hosting and Kerri and Deb for running round collecting numbers.

Why are the results listed in HP when the runs are measured in KW?

Thanks for asking that ! Was wondering that. Though it was a 'Queensland' thing..

Are the HP measures the same as KW ?

No. Power (kW) = Power (HP) x 0.7457

In NSW, the dyno runs were recorded in kW

So none of the class 1's turned up in Qld???? I wanted to see what Rob's car was going to do

And what the hell were you driving in Sydney Sean (Photn)? Is that how powerful a Fiesta on its roof is? Or have you tricked up Matt's car already??

(But you're not going to like the Vic result when you see it!!!LOL)

A big thankyou to the Melbourne crew, and to GD and their MAGNIFICENT new facility. And a special thanks from me for setting up for the only FWD of the day in Melbourne. Thanks guys

One of our friends decided to take Sean's spot since Sean didnt have a car to run on the dyno. It was a stock Fiesta XR4.

We had no-one for Class 1 or Class 5 hence making a third in Class 2 and Class 3. It was talked about and on the help and advice of Gill (hope I spelt your name right), she is the wife of Steve (both being the RDP owners) we did a 3rd place.

OK, thought you run today was in KW as that what you refered to in post no 9.

G&D in Melbourne did them in KW today, yea I know we can convert the figures, just assumed a National Dyno Day would all be measured the same, after all Australia does use the metric system.

Don't get me wrong, not complaining here, just curious

AND Must add that I had a great morning
