What do wheels have to do with tint or you being white?

I tried getting a dyno for the car show. It costs about 1000 to get a dyno for the day and we could have to charge something like 50 a run and have 20 people go to make a profit. Not to mention the school shitting a brick about it.

its not just the money. imagine the noise of up to, and possibly over, 20 cars (whose mufflers may be questionable) taking their engine to redline over and over. the people in the dorms next door will go on a rampage.
btw, i didn't know you're from roanoke. i am too, i live near cave spring...but i'm not a yuppie asshole 8)
If it wasnt the same day as the as the ccvt show, you could probably get some of them to come up.

CCVT had a dyno come last year. It was a portable dyno where they put the ass of the car on jackstands, take off the tires, and bolt the dyno brakes to the hubs. It took forever for each car and was kinda stupid.
Portable roller is the onlly way to go....but I honestly think there are better attractions to have. (however, I'm sure u could make some money by getting lots of ricers to pay to dyno their turds)
I feel more like i do now than I did before.
I doubt many people would come to a dyno at our show since I'm sure they'll have one at NOPI.

noise is a factor.

The dynapacks are easier to transport and better from a tuning standpoint - FWIW.

The dyno is a tuning tool - the peak numbers are pretty useless except if you want to boast about how big your dick is.

i agree.. and if HP number is all you care about then get a turbo supra.. i saw an article somewhere from a supra meet in las vegas. the top 20 highest hp dyno pulls were all over 1000 hp... pretty nuts i have watched a supra make over 1000whp.. it was damn scary to be near.

As much as it turns me on to hear a 1000+hp supra, I hate dyno queen supra's. I would much rather have 500-600usable horsepower than 1000+ unusable horsepower.
