March 2010
March is already here and we had our first Club event of the year earlier this month; a rolling road day at GotBoost in Llandow (as asked for by many members in the Club). I wasn't expecting any spectacular results as I had made no modifications to the Trophy over the winter (largely due to spending most of it in Perth, Western Australia) but thought I'd throw it on the rollers all the same.
Sadly there were a few issues with the rollers on the day (calibration issues) but it wasn't too far out when it came to my time to roll. The dyno graphs are shown below. I'm not sure what was going on with the power delivery as it seems very 'lumpy' and the AFR seems all over the place. Still, I'm not complaining as it was a good day out - a chance to meet up with friends old and new and the car is driving great anyway!
As always, Lyn and I were there with the cameras ready to grab a photo or two. We also improvised and used a bullet cam to capture some footage as we didn't have a video camera available on the day:

As I write this, the mileage has just crept over 60k so it's time I contacted Rentech to get it booked in and serviced. I've also got a few more minor updates coming over the next month or two (hopefully) all being well.
