My local track paid to bring in a drag challenge chassis dyno for publicity. This is a trailer with two mustang dynos side by side. You actually run the car through an 1/8th or 1/4 mile on the dyno. Anyways the track manager asked me to bring the car & I did. Somehow the thing was way out of calibration or something because my car ran 5.40 at 132.55
that would be great. Unfortunately the fastest it has really been is 6.20's at 111. This was also in 95 degree heat. I know I have heard that mustang dynos give lower readings than dynojets & this was the opposite of what I expected. I only ran it once (they didn't have a fan) & I wasn't about to run it again starting at 200 degrees. Plus the guy next to me started smoking the tires & blew them both ripping up his quarter panels & destroying the plates on the top of the dyno
. Still was fun. Anyone have experience with these things? Or do you think I picked up 20+ mph in the high temps
