Yes it does, only thing is I'm having trouble locating the manual for it, but its an easy set to use anyway.

Sounds like yourself and your boss are a pair of fools. What company do you work for?

Just so you know, if you had a "tunn" of ballast in the back, slamming all on could have done you a serious injury even if you didn't hit anything else in the process.

We do a lot of loaded testing and jamming the brakes on (even with it all strapped down) causes the ballast to move around a lot. Tightening the ratchet straps down as tight as you can, still lets it move 3 or 4 inches under heavy braking.

Default sorry

sorry for insulting anyone but tbh it was a one off and it wont happen again and when we did the speed test the motorway was practicly deserted no one was even in sight so thats why we did it and the ballast was strapped down with chains and pullys in the back of the van and we didnt slam on the brakes we came to a gentle stop so the ballast didnt shift a inch looking forward to getting my brca and membership and that conrtoler hopefully some neew wheels

As a "farther" do your kids a favour, do not try to teach them spelling.
Always makes me laugh these speed threads. Nobody else ever breaks the speed limit.
