Agreed. I know that if my next setup makes more/less/same power than a previous setup, it's not likely to be due to a different dyno or operator or whatever. Plus the Delaware place lets us do simple tweaks between runs, lets us run our own car, and is cheap. People have done 5-6 pulls with major tweaks between runs and it's still the same price.

the DE place is great for a large group. but i swear it takes out at least one car each meet :)

Took out 2 this past time. neogen's and Jes'. Paul actually got in the laguna the other day to drive it and was wondering why he had no heat. :giggle:

Somehow I missed the fact that there was a second blown motor that day. Or are you saying it happened more recently? My recollection is that Jes' car had clearly audible knock on the dyno.

did her motor go? i thought it was just that hose.

Just the hose. But the car did ping on the dyno.

I need an alignment from York. I need to finish my car. What date are you shooting for?

Please post there so as to not disturb the detritus of this last dyno day.

let's not talk about that stupid hose ever again....BTW I'm never helping anyone listen to knock on a dyno ever again
