Having an idle pub conversation with a mate (who has a large workshop) led onto discussing the possibility of making our own rolling road. Just wondered if anybody has seen this done before??

We were bouncing ideas about and thoughts progressed about how this could be done. We have access to an old brake test machine and could some how rig this up to calculate bhp at the wheel?? I'm guessing that you could somehow connect the movement from the wheels to some kind of load cell and through a pc could calculate bhp at the wheel??

Anybody got any thoughts pls
