Okay all I know we have addressed this in another thread but I wanted to start a new topic.

Today I spoke with another Dyno vendor and he is more reasonably priced and seems to have a better reputation.

This gentlmen will do $50 per car and that basically includes "pulls until the customer is happy" as the owner put it. I do however, need to gather enough cars to guarantee him at least $1000 to be there (he is travelling about 4 hours to get there).

So, now the question is, are you interested and would you "commit" to a dyno session? Vote here and post as well so I will have your user ID's.

The gentlemen that runs the Hermann area internet news site Neighborhood Galaxy said he would donate $150 towards getting the dyno here.

If you have never seen a car on a dyno its super cool........

I am in for 2 sets of pulls. We are going to have something special this year that is going to require my car to be dyno'ed 2 times. That is all I can say right now so you need to come and see what we have planned out.

I forgot to add that anyone that has already sent $100 towards the dyno will be refunded the difference either at or before the show on Saturday.

Do I get to operate the car during the dyno?

Will there be a wide band O2 reading? If so, for $50, I am in.

I am not sure about the 02 reading but I will check. I want to say yes on operating the during the dyno, but I will also check on that.

We checked with the dyno company and you can operate your own car and they will give you 02 readings. So to answer your qeustions, yes to both.

Great, air/fuel ratio readings are key to a successful dyno. Count me in.

Add another YES vote to the total. Our friend who's coming from Wisconsin wants to commit to the Dyno, but isn't a Team Shelby member so he's unable to make his vote register.

I suppose you can but what we really need is for you to come to Shelbyfest in person, even though you have already generously and graciously contributed to the dyno fund......
