Steve's a fantastic supporter of NTEC, and is responsible for my recent 347/360 dyno run (which I hope to improve upon with a little TLC from KevinD on Thursday). Let's all drive out there and show our support.

I'm scheduled to be there around noon. He mentions food, but I can't really wade through 50+ pages to figure out the deal. In any case, I'll likely leave the Frisco area around 11-11:25am on Saturday to head over there.

mrMTB you want to head over there and get a repull?

How long was it taking to get the three pulls for each car?

Unfortunately I'm busy between ferrying kids around and entertaining my parents this weekend. Don't think they'd be down with a trip to the dyno.

Jim, the other night it was taking about 10-15 minutes between cars on the dyno. Steve's new arrangement is worlds better than it was at the other shop. (We missed you guys at dinner.)

The only thing I would point out is that if there are both 2WD and AWD cars, he'll probably handle one type first and then the next since it does take some time to reconfigure the dyno.

Should take about 20 minutes or less total. 5 min to drive car up strap down. 5 min to calibrate. Then couple min each pull..

I agree that is what it should take, but last year it was taking 45 mins to an hour per car. Too long to wait IMO.
