Pretty much yeah :roll:

The results of the investigation have just come in. My car is to be moved class up into D. The clerk of the course has recognised that I am not at fault and has allowed my times from Sundays competition to be reclassified into D, allowing me to take my win. TBH this is the most important thing for me other than not being labelled a cheater.

My car was re-dyno'd last night on a different rolling road. This rolling road (a Mainline DynoLog Dynamometer) recorded my car giving a higher whp than the Dyno Dynamics I was on for my original SLS certification. The dyno operator of the Mainline says that his dyno is typically conservative compared to other dynos in its estimation of whp. It recorded my car to be producing an average of 208whp. This coupled with my weight of 1222kg (including me in it) results in a whp/T of 170, with the limit of class E being 150.

The Mainline dyno only reads in whp but operator said going by his machine my car makes in excess of 260 at the fly. We had a fairly lengthy discussion on how the results of the two dyno's could be so different.

Dyno Dynamics result of 181whp

Well that settles that. I expect its reading a little low but that's certainly more where you should be.

Not a cheater, just bad selection by the organisers of the Dyno Dynamics. Like you say, I'm glad you retained your results and that recent trophy win. 8-)
