Just a few pics from around the show.












Everyone had a great time, got some more pics just have to get them uploaded. Chris(Legmaker) and Nate(RTJunkie) Both had their rides Dyno'd with very impressive results.

hey patrick - cool pics!!! any chances of having you emial me the shots and video of the dyno runs??? want to put it into my files here at the house!! thanks!!! tell chris to clean the car again, it probably has more spots on it!!!

[RTjunkie]

Dyno's definitely weren't bad at all. I was pleased to see I'm right around the 300HP mark at the wheels with 332 Ft.Lbs of Tq.


Edit: That was also including my spare tire and stereo equipment which will be pulled out for the Dyno Day on the 27th.

UMMM CHRIS aka "Legmaker" there are no spots on the car (unlike yours) LOL! As far as getting those video's of your dyno run, we will have to see if I have enough time left over from cleaning. LOL Chris

Silly question,

Does removing weight make any difference on a dyno ??

I wouldn't think so, thinking back to Physics 101... (but this is total speculation)

Since the vehicle is NOT moving, it could weigh like 10K pounds and would put out the same HP and Torque.

I would think that the 0-60 and 1/4 mile runs would get better as the vehicle gets lighter. 'A body at rest wants to say at rest', right? But the dyno shouldn't change.

To a point Todd is kinda right. Although one thing that I think should be noted though which changes things a bit is that excess weight = more friction from said weight while the car is up on the dyno.

nate = einstein...... hehehe
