Some extremely disappointing and frustrating news in from Westward.

I've been informed despite all they cannot accommodate us due to full Saturday/schedules for next several months.

We are back to square 1 and now must find a new 4WD location.

Are there any on the radar? Westward was the only one I was aware of.

I don't know Jamie. It's been a struggle to get it this far. Westward was Joe Powers recommendation too.
There must be alternatives.

I suppose all that can be done is try to poke out another 4WD dyno or wait for Westward to be available. How many months of a wait are they saying?

In short, its best we find an alternative.

Would this do?

Lol probably too complicated for us.

Is it true there is a 4wd RR in Galway?

Three was a business in Clare Galway a few year back called tightrope technologies. They had a 4wd hub dyno .I know cos I was in there once . Don't think they are still in businesss, could be wrong though??

Logged on to say I can't make the 25th - have to take the little lad to a football tournament.

What about across the border? Surely someone south of Belfast could accommodate us?

Do they take a long to time fit to a car? It might be grand if only small numbers attend, but if a lot of people attend it might be a long day.

I'll give them a shout this week.

Has anyone any experience of dealing with them though?

Loading cars onto a dyno is not that big a deal and they are all 4WD so swapping setups from front to rear like 2wd days. With 10-12 cars half a day at a steady but not rushed pace should be there or therabouts.
