Would normally cost around £45 for a rolling road run,there used to a firm called Martek Motorsport (I ran my Touring here on their rollers) around Dudley area,but I can't find any details on it online.

Hi there is a rolling road day coming up in a couple of weeks, its in luton but a few people including myself will be going from croydon, meet up for the drive there if you would like to go. The cost is £40 and that will be for enough runs to get a consistent result.

Check the link for more info

Can't believe how many owners there are in Croydon, how about a meet someday or booking up a rolling road session? :D

I did arrange a day at Surrey Rolling Road a while back but there was not much interest. Charlie has asked me if I would do another one but there is not enough interest/cars to make it worth his while.
