It is a great idea but the dyno kings don't seem to track their cars and track kings aren't into dyno pulls outside of tuning. And everyone would need a trailer to return home after the 1/4 mile runs.

What about a standardized track (higher speed) auto cross run?

This is why I'm not posting in here. Well, until now.
If only it wasn't ten thousand miles away.

I just got off the phone with the dyno queen. He said he is running 40psi so, who ever is going to dyno, you better bring it.

Only 40psi? So he's not looking at breaking his old record then?

Yep - around 40 psi.
Its a dyno queen, I'll admit it.
But its a lot of fun on the highway.
Patrick - did Stevie Wonder make those headers for you? - they sure are nice!
I am going to trailer the car - THERE IS ZERO CHANCE I WILL MISS 944 FEST IN '09.
My turbo makes the turbo on my 3306 977 Cat look like something served in a French restaraunt....I'm just sayin'

Better yet how about a race for all classes on an endless conveyor belt that matches your wheel speed?
