Although I didn't get my car on the rollers I have to agree with 555Danny as posted on the midlands section! (Shouldn't have slept in)
Given the time of year and what goes into organising these sort's of event's I think the lads at PowerStation did a great job! Many thanks to Karl, Rich, Curtis, Nick, Gerry, and Dirk (smokers unite!) for a great day!
The other suppliers that showed up as well were more than worth their while in talking to!! Invo Auto, Lico, Hankook, Performance Friction..
Just remember this cost's a lot of money to run a "free" Dyno day. And it was stated that first in first served on the rollers. I'd have loved to have seen a particular BMW run or even a Supercharged Monaro!!
I suggest you get down their earlier next time to avoid being disappointed!
And as for spending to much time on their own Time Attack / Track day warriors... I didn't see any PowerStation owned car that would suit that description! Unlike RCM / RC Dev / ZEN....
The lads were fantastic towards me and very helpful! I for one will go back for their next open day!

Saying "Get there early" is all well and good, but most of us had to get up at the crack of dawn as it is to get there by 10:30. We would have needed to be on the road by 5-5:30 to beat the locals to the rollers! As Lee said above, it just seems it would have been far more fare to pick numbers or raffle tickets every hour or something simular. When you have nothing to look forward to or wait for, such as getting your car on the rollers or watching someone you know getting their car on there, once you have walked around for an hour, its time to go. I cant comment on service to be honest as i didnt ask for any on the day.

I Came over form Ireland to go to the open day as i was staying with a friend that weekend and i must say i thought Karl and team put on a great open Day even tho it was a cold one. Nice to see events like these at this time off year as back home there aint much going on but i thought it was nice of the Powerstation guys to put on a free rolling road session for many cars. Ok some off you dont like some off the cars like myself but that shouldnt stop them from going on it.
All i can say is a big thanks to Karl and his team for making me feel very welcome and i will defo be over again for the next one!!! might bring the scoob also!!!

have you been before tho ? as it seems people who havent been before enjoyed 
and thats because it is all new for them but if you HAVE been before you expect better things to be there and even better organisation but it seems to have gone backwards
