I mistakenly listed the ND2RA-DYNO DRAGS as being held on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. They are NOT on Wednesdays but Thursdays. Sorry for the typo. I look forward to seeing you all there soon. The new 35 lb. forged aluminum racing jack is awsome. Remember, the drawing is for DRAG/VA members who join the ND2RA...ONLY. A nice season ending prize from Drag/VA and The Dyno Shop. Call 757-869-2439 for info and directions.
Best Regards,

Dyno Drag Info-
The Dyno Shop is located at 2810 Build America Drive, in Hampton. Were right behind the Best Western Motel near the 64 and Mercury Blvd. The local phone company is unable to initiate our new service for another two weeks, at least the end of the month. In the interim, use the cellular number 757-869-2439. We have a Mustang MD-250/7000 Dyno with a Pro-Tree light system. We can handle 650 H/P and speeds up to 150 mph. Dyno time is booked at $100/hr, for tuning purposes, by appointment only. Discounted rates are $50 for two H/P pulls or three drag runs. Membership in the ND2RA, the National Diagnostic Drag Racing Association, is $50 annually. Membership entitles you to half price H/P pulls/drags, when combined and your first pull/runs are included. Tuning drops to $75. Nice, huh? Membership gets you membership card, good for several discounts, decals, elgability for a large group of contingincy awards, nationwide trophy-competition within six classes and three e.t. brackets and access to a national data base within our upcoming web site. There are over 150 Mustang owners nationwide who will be coming onboard with the ND2RA in the coming weeks. We have installed a new pro tree light system and will be able to capture reaction times, 60-foot times, 1/8 mile and 1/4 mile speeds and e.t.s. All drag-car participants are scaled with Longacre digital four-wheel race car scales, to assure the accuracy of the data. Drag/VA members, who join the ND2RA, are also placed in a drawing for a 3,000 lb. capacity forged aluminum racing floor jack which weighs only 35 lbs.! Newer counter broshures are being printed and will be provided to local businesses throughout Hampton Roads.
Thanks for the questions.

I noticed that I forgot to tell 93 Foxbody that we have a Mustang Eddy-Current type dynamometer. www.mustangdyne.com Recognized as the the most accurate diagnostic dyno made, it is also the fastest known with regard to data aquisition and analysis. It is the kind.

The DynoJet is the most accurate, anyone that went to your dynopull on the 22nd should know how accurate your Mustang dyno meter is, maybe you don't understand how to use your equipement just yet?

http://www.dynojet.com

The accuracy, precision, and dependability of Dynojet's Automotive Chassis Dynamometer has been recognized by the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing as the benchmark in automotive dynamometer design. Dynojet Research is proud to announce that it has linked a three-year deal with NASCAR to provide dynamometer services for the organization's NASCAR Winston Cup Series, NASCAR Busch Grand National Series, and NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series events. NASCAR uses Dynojet's dyno for race rule enforcement, and to determine power production of the competing cars in race trim. The Dynojet Dynamometer is ideally suited for this role due to it's simplicity of operation, reliability, and accuracy.

Furthermore, Dynojet has become the officially licensed NASCAR dynamometer. This agreement is a reflection of NASCAR's recognition of the advanced technical capabilities of the Dynojet Automotive Dynamometer. Several NASCAR teams have acquired Dynojet Dynamometers for their own use.


The Pros use only the best

It would seem that DYNO RAT forgot that he did not finish his run as directed. If you notice the torque numbers you will be amazed that a "rat" Cavilier could make as much torque as a strong small block mouse motor. It can't. We came equipted to do drag runs horsepower only and require a spark plug sensor to aquire accurate torque readings. While the rear wheel H/P reading is accurate, the torque number is a "flash" reading with missing data imputs. This was explained to our brash and excited Mr. DynoRat. We subscribe to the policy that "Knowledge Is Power, How Fast Can You Go?" We suggest that everyone read the Dyno comparisons article in the April issue of 5.0 Mustang & Super Fords Magazine or read the article reprint on-line at www.mustangdyne.com. Once you understand how different dynos work, you'll begin to understand how data is aquired and analysed. We will have printed material, which explanes all of this, available at The Dyno Shop, shortly. Bring that "rat" back and we will gladly retest it, free of charge, and post the results.

I am trying to start an arguement, but.....

The Mustang Dyno sucks assitola. The dyno results posted in this thread are about as accurate as many of the other results I have seen from your particular dyno. Two summers ago you guys were at an Import car show at Super Kmart on Holland Road in Va Beach. I went with two friends.....both driving Camaros. The LS1 you dynoed was some 30rwhp off, and according to your dyno the torque was close to 600rwtq. I dont know what you are talking about with DYNO RAT, by saying he didnt complete his run as intended, since you guys also hooked up the Camaro that read 600rwtq.

Long story short, it is a waste of everyones money unless you want to hear someone blast your car WOT while you listed from behind. :hi:

most Cup shops use mustang dynos now been there seen them. and i was at the deal before x-mas must of the guys were happy the ones that wern't were the ones that thought they had more than they did!! sorry! the timers don't lie 12. 12.1 12.2 so on we are talking about drag racing fastest to the 1/4 mile also yall need more kleanex you have to stick with one dyno to get a good comparison to each other

While I know some may think thay flamers, like "Henderick Edition", aka the "Elongated Member" are just going through some gender identity crisis, I prefer to think that anonymity and lack of good manners creates a braggadocious effect for it's own sake. A reasonable person would gather all available information prior to making comments about which they are ill-equiped to discuss. While I am sure that spinning BMW emblems must be needed to help some to develop certain "elongations", my suggestion is to "bring it on". If you can talk-the-talk surely you must walk-the-walk. Do I hear an amen? Dyno Drags...where the talk stops.

Um, yeah. :confused:

I merely stated my opinion, and made a disclaimer that I did not intend to start an arguement, but........looks like you do. :hi:

Identity crisis with me? Never. You have a sense of humor? Guess not. About gathering information..........hey there buddy :hi: , thats why I posted. I posted based on what I have either witnessed or heard from reliable friends. As for the BMW comment, I do get elongations from it, while looking in my wallet after working on them all day. Feel better? I hope so.

As I have stated before many times, and will state again, "dyno racing" is ghey. Its no different than competing with actual numbers that each car might put down to the pavement, with the only variable being a shitty dynomometer (ie Mustang Dyno). Granted, there are some cars that you can get fairly accurate readings on, yet you lack the software and/or motivation to correct an ignition pickup to resolve this whole issue. :confused: I think you should change your quote also.......


Dyno Drags...where the talk stops.

....to something more along the lines of "where the talk starts", since most people walk away whining about their outrageous and falsified numbers.

Take it to the track, thats where the talk stops. And if you wish to "attempt" to insult me or my intelligence, start a thread in the punchout and lets have at it. :hi: Be prepared.

well in my opinion, the dyno was off, when i went i got 133 at eh wheeles, an rsx t s with cold air, and manny other mods got 138, then another Rsx-S with an intake got 158, seems a lilttle off, then they told me to shut down at 86 mph, they told me that is where i topped out in third, NO!! that was only 8k RPM i redline at 82K 92 mph. when thay get all the kinks out and i start seeing real numbers i'll consider wasting my money again.

from what i have seen a stock Gsr puts down 153 at the wheels easy.
