yeah there's a tour of the plant. it's ok, you gotta do it if you haven't. hopefully your tour guide isn't the military guy, he was a dick. he was power trippin' during our tour. he didn't say anything to me but he would yell at people for doing anytning wrong.

it actually was a drive on dyno, the fail was it was 2 wheel only. so the "competition" excluded about 60% to 65% of cars there (gallant vr4s, 3kgt vr4s, evos, 09+ralliarts, gsxs, etc)

Oh wow that sucks. I saw a couple years back at the Cali MOD they had 4 dyno packs. Well at least its a step in the right direction. I had to work Sat so I couldnt make it this year.

The deal with the dyno was this.... When the MOD Squad Team originally contacted this company they told them they could run any kind of car no problem. The MOD Squad Team assumed they could run AWD then. When they gave the company the list of entries. The company then said they were not capable of running any AWD cars. Which at the time was like 3/4's there list of entries.

Years ago back in 2006 I believe there was a dyno at MOD. They company provided dyno packs which enabled AWD cars to run.
