Yeah you warm it up then Jon backs her up on the rollers we strap it down on the dyno and Jon will drive up to 4th gear at about 50kph and then do a Wide Open Throttle Pull to Redline. The Dyno then gives you a power reading. He will do this twice and give you a dyno print out.

They usually do it in 4th as that's 1:1 in most gearboxes.

Sorry I won't be able to make it as I'm going away that weekend
I'm also pretty sure Brocky will be unable as well due to unforeseen issues
