Your opinion may vary.
Your opinion may vary.
Your ludicrous suggestion hardly merits comment, but I'm a sucker so here goes. Where do you propose we do repeated runs to 130MPH? Do you have a airport runway or other vacant 2 mile stretch of secure deserted tarmac? What makes you think there is no BS in your "well established data base"? Running cars on the EXACT SAME DYNO in the EXACT SAME CONDITIONS is the closest thing a sane person could expect to a serious shootout. It is called a "dyno shootout" because you are on a dyno. The big number wins. If it were a 60-130 shootout, we'd call it that. If you want to play with the dyno readouts and extract 60-130 times in a specific gear under specific loads, you probably could do that. Next time YOU host an event, let me know how that works out. I'm done here. Those of you who LIKE my format (which is actually workable) feel free to let the Pole know it. Thanks.

+1, if you have an airstrip to donate near Nelson Ledges for Fest, I think we'd love the opportunity. If not, back to back dyno runs with the same weather conditions, on the same dyno is about as good as we're going to get.

Forgive Pole - he is being sarcastic.
He has fallen off of his snowmobile and cracked his head on the frozen lake one too many times.
