    I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to make this now. Need to fit my clutch and flywheel before hand so I can run proper boost but doesn't look like I'll get it done in time

    I've payed, has anyone been here before? From a quick look on google maps it seems it's down a lot of country lanes I.e. No good for low cars?

    No issues with low cars. Don't worry

    Do not follow Google Maps... It will bring you in the completely wrong way along some nasty lanes.
    Any "normal" satnav will bring you in the right way, but Google seems to like single track lanes!
    If coming on M5 South, leave at J23 and then let nav take over.
    If you come on M5 North, leave at J23, take first exit on motorway roundabout, then take 3rd exit at next roundabout and head towards Bridgwater - DO NOT take first exit and head towards Taunton... Drive for around 2 miles and then let the nav take over.

    We've had all sorts of cars arrive and never had an issue with extremely low vehicles.

    TA5 2DD will take you right to the door

    Yes basically. Unless you want to explore the back lanes!

    Please could each person going post up which sort of run they'd like, be it the basic one with printout only, or the premium version with the USB stick to take away?

    Thank you!

    @stuartuk - sorry you had to head off, we ended all done about 1600, got through things more quickly as time went on.

    Did you pay a deposit? If so we'll get that back to you :-)

    Thanks to everybody who came along, it went really well I think and we have a great new local venue now for a repeat visit at some stage!

    Thanks Grant620 for being a great host today, top time had all round I think!

    Great day and the venue was superb, thank you for making us so welcome big thanks to Ben for all the efforts he's put in to organising the day.

    Only way to make it better imo would be a screen showing the info outside of the dyno and maybe a video of the car. Guess that depends if you're planning on regular dyno days in the future

    Bet that cossie is a handful. I am still annoyed that i am poor and couldn't come. I could have come second.
