Ill put a vote in for the February weekend, Ill see if I can't run my car to. Do you have to do anything special when running an Automatic car on the rollers? I know alot of you guys are running 5/6 speeds...

Nothing special, just follow the instructions the tech at the facility gives you. Typically you will be in your 1:1 ratio gear, probably 3rd for the 700R4.

Yup. And don't hit the brakes. Very Happy

Yeah Greg, we've had some pretty humbling moments in dyno history.

Bart's 52HP Corolla, John's what, 98HP? We've all dropped some crappy numbers!

If I can get it there I'll probably own the lightest car award and the least power award!

And here is what you get when you Dyno for 6 years straight.

Id like to try to make it down but im not sure yet how my schedule will play out. I would just throw the car on the trailer and take off if I do.... Are there hotel nearby or maybe enough room at a crewbies house for a truck and trailer? Smile

If you guys don't mind hearing the pathetic whine of a little four banger, I'd like to put my daily (02 Protege5) on the dyno.

I'm hoping for a whopping 105-110 to the wheels.

Dyno day last year was awesome, I'd like to join in even if my thirdgen days are over.
