I agree, track times tell me how good the driver and vehicle are together.

I am positive almost anyone with any real driving experience (track, auto-x, road racing, rally driver, etc....) could drive my car faster than me.

Sunnyboi - Between your two (2) threads, all I can say is "DAMN." You have done a terrific job on building one sweet-ass ride.

I remember in the top speed thread that you were saying your car was having trouble picking up speed, and felt slow. Did Miko fix the problem or was it all in your head?

Thanks for contributing to the dyno thread. It takes a while to do an update (lots of things I have to do) so it will take a little bit of time for me to update it. Sorry.
You're at the top though so far. =]

I think the other way around. For me seeing the MPH the car makes down the track is what tells me how a car is moving. Dyno numbers are just that. Dyno Numbers!

I am a big fan of dyno tuning. Not really to get numbers but, to get the power curve on point.

^Agreed. If necessary I would have someone else drive my car to see if they could get a better time. Dyno is to get the power and good driving is for good track times.
