Scheides, you know I'll volunteer before I'm asked to help out with stuff, assuming I'm not working.

Re: 2009 Fall Dyno Day - Oct 3rd @ MAP

Modern really needs to get a screen up that everyone can see like DB has. Not actually seeing the curve or the numbers takes about 1/2 the fun of the dyno day away (plus what a car does on the dyno IS the point). Yeah, people sometimes yell out numbers, but I care more about the curve than the peak numbers that don't mean much.

I also didn't like the fact that they weren't logging boost, at least the last dyno day I ran mine at. It's well known that many times the boost differs considerably on the dyno vs the street, plus some people adjust the boost for the dyno.

MAP - get a monitor up, it would make the day much more fun.

Apparently you haven't stopped by recently sir We have had a 24" monitor in the viewing window and the ability to log boost for quite some time now

Ultimately, if you've seen one car almost jump off the dyno in person, its enough to leave it to the shop to do while I worry about getting cars lined up to dyno

So, I see lots of discussion and only a few cars signed up....let's go people, its only a little over a week away!

^lol. Scheides, you KNOW every dyno day there is, I help out, grab ice/buns, etc. So, I'll continue to do so as well this time, and every other time!

Strapping cars down isn't that hard. I'd say the hardest car i've had to strap down was at a mazda day, and that beautiful blue one (also owns that white evo 9 w/advan rgII wheels) had this huge CF undertray in the back, and the car was already sitting low to the ground, so the tray had to come off. Either way, cars are not too terrible to strap down.
