Oh man, that's killer. Nicely done Torrie. Enjoy it Fracman.

Having Torrie come up this spring. Can't wait!

Thanks, burnt nearly 1/4 tank while on the dyno and driving back home (about 5-8 miles).

BTW - I saw proof that the 6 year old tires need to go no matter how recently they were put on or how good they look, the car is covered in mini-chunks of rubber courtesy of the leading edge of the treads beginning to separate.

Cool super-charged numbers Fracman! I knew there was a reason I like Torrie!

That's also a big function of the drum pattern vs torque vs friction vs wheel speed. It's real common on that type of dyno.
