Aaron and I are hoping to book half a day (or more) in the next few weeks and will be needing people to fill in the rest of the 8 hours. The ideal available date will be August 7 (the day before the rallycross), but I haven't confirmed it yet.

If you think you would be interested in some dyno time in the next few weeks just post here.

The event would be held at Carolina Automasters in downtown Durham. The dyno has a HP limit of just over 1000 hp (in case you were concerned). I'd expect the cost to be $60 max (I lost a little money on the last one).

Count the new Sentra in! We gotta know just how much HP we have compared to the infamous Dirtmaster CoROLLa right?

I have two vehicles I would like to dyno, and 8/7 works for me.

Let me know when you are doing it Scott. I can think 2 or 3 vehicles I'd like to dyno.

I could potentially bring 3 vehicles...

The truck: How uber is it?
The Integra: How worn out is it?
The BMW: How terrible is it?

Scott,

I'd be in too if you have any time left ... just one car.

Scott,

If I can get someone to watch the girls, I'd like to bring the Miata out. Probably still have the turbo on it. It would be good to get before and after numbers to see just how much power I lose without the turbo.
