not saying your dyno opperator is incompetant but I have heard of more than one dyno shop that put in the dyno before they hired someone that knew how to run one......

nah man... we just had it strapped a lil too high on the back end and too low on the front end... we had to move the straps up in the back because we kept getting wheel spin and we just didn't think to move up the front straps...


Friends don't let friends drive ricers!

well, I'm the guy behind the camera in this video, so I know first hand...
all afternoon we had either been spinning tires or the clutch would be slipping and we decided to try and help get the rear to hook up a bit more and raised the tie down on the chassis....the front was still strapped but at and anchor distance for a full length car...well with the new rear tie down point on the chassis we were still having issues hooking up at the rubber and with the clutch...until they both held...then you get the wheelie
