Pretty neat idea. At least it gives ya something to look at while doing dyno runs.

Hmmm...I wonder if I could borrow John Force'* Funny Car for a pass...

I'm not to sure about the affects on the drive train .... unless they loaded the DYNO

sooooo why would you spend money to do that when i bet you can spend less and do the real thing? btw those calculated times are BS, supposedly my car is a 10.7 car when the best i've run is a 12.4 in reality, both were me driving.
it must not be loaded right going by what he said

IMO I would rather make the actual run down the track. Its much more exciting!!

This is a cool alternative though.

I agree, except it'* a good alternative to not running at all during the winter

Yeah for what it probably costs, I'd rather feel the kick back into the seat on the real track. But yes, agreed, not such a boring dyno run.
