However you will need to do it on the same dyno as me, as well, you choose the dyno... Do we have a deal? Edited 06/04/10 11:02 AM by SPIKO

I am old enough to not need a dyno sheet to bat off to at night as I'm sure you don't either.I can't believe I'm saying this , but the results speak for themselves.Hope everyone realises I was just taking the piss

I did that run a few years ago and it's good to now see others going further than my power levels, or mph at full weight. Stripping weight will make that task easier.Doubt you'll try a max speed run on street tyres; I wouldn't do it again... just a tad too dangerous.Julian, I didn't see you post at the time I post. Hub dyno is obviously the most consistent, but it's just another tuning tool. Brian

If I know you as well as I think I do they would have been at least $800 a pop?Street tires whats that? When you can spend $100 to $1200 depending on how far you are willing to go?This is not a fair comparison... you know this.. ps: Last time we were having this conversation I had the Australian Record in an Auto? This time it's in a manual? This is feeling alot like de-javou my good friend.. Come down to the dyno day and we will then go to the track and see what's what..... Just go out there and be the quickest LOL it's simple.. Edited 06/04/10 11:44 AM by SPIKO

Even that is dangerous on stock rubber
