I thought this was the sign up list.

Ellis, any chance of getting the bottle filled before we do this thing? It isn't really necessary but might be nice to see what it is producing N/A and with n2o.

Hey George/Nick, were you ever successful at setting loads on the dyno? Are the dyno day pulls going to be loaded, or maybe on request? I'd like to see some more torque!

Chris, We were unable to use that feature on our dyno...but we've found out if you stack a few bodies on the rear deck lid the torque goes up ouite a bit because the tires don't spin as much. We just finished a GTO yesterday and the torque was 817 with the extra weight and in the low 700 without.

Don't let a little rain scare you off. Back in '03 we had one going while it was pouring rain almost the entire day.

+1

Just don't drive up on drag radials and dirty cars can be washed.

--

Back in '05 the Mustang camp had a dyno day down in Tacoma and it was an otherwise decent day with broken clouds. On my way home back up to Arlington while passing through Everett -- IT FREAKIN' SNOWED.

Needless to say ... that was a long slow drive home. Hit the first patch of slush and nearly lost it trying to slow down gently down the center of I5.

That is a thought. I think the dyno has to be motorcycle specific.

Either way!! I'll be there to watch......
