For what its worth, the last time I went there they said they had only ever had one car that had let go out of how many...?

They said it wasnt in very good condition anyway...

Hope that eases your mind a bit

That story is tosh. It changes with every RR, sometimes its one. MOst times its none.

I personally know of at least 4 cars that have gone bang on their rollers.

I cant understand why people are so scared of the rollers,when leathering your car on a motorway or round the country lanes you treat your engine FAR worse than when on the rollers,all they do is take the engine up to or near the limiter a couple of times.
Dont be such mard arses!!
See you all sunday.
