Watch the video..

HLH0501 DYNO Video

A little afraid for my life

 

i would be oh so ****ed off

oh oh what did it put down before the strap breakage?

 

i was not happy in the least, and no #'s sorry..

 

you snapped the cables

 

Jesus 14+ Lbs of BOOST!!!! Ur ridiculous...must have been scary.

 

goin sideways at 100+mph on a dyno, with a concrete wall less than 10 feet in front of you? about the scariest thing of my life.. but made for a great keepsake

 

you must have dropped a lung..

 

So you didnt make any runs to post any HP and Torque numbers? those are what we call airforce cargo straps and they should have had extra ones.

 

I should have taken a couple more videos for you all.. first of me not being able to stand up because i was soo shaken after the smoke cleared out of the place.. and secondly, of my tires that litterally had to be peeled off of the dyno.. they were complete slicks w/ the tread ONLY of that little X design on the dyno..

 

you slammed the brakes?

 

holy s ... did you soil yourself?

 

it was a nice little episode, wish we had it on video it was a combo of them braking the dyno as i slid sideways, trying to keep it on the dyno, and hittin the brakes as i was yelled to do - it was all quite retarded in my opinion, im a little afraid to visit that place again.

 

I hope they didn't end up charging you! Man, that must have been crazy!

 

yes i know that is really ****ed and were glad ur ok..but damn talk about HP!! breaking loose those cable..nice. get some numbers!!

 

Geeze Harold! That coulda been a lot worse! Chris was telling me about that episode when I was in Bowling Green today. Didn't quite think at the time it was THAT bad! Whew!!

 

you broke the dyno!

Congrats! After you calm down a bit that nothing got seriously screwed up on your car, you'll probably laugh about this and have a little pride in it. heheh

Glad everything is okay otherwise though!

 

Did the tie down straps get routed under your wastegate dump or exhaust by any chance?

The straps look melted.

A Dynojet is designed to handle up to 1200 whp.

 

Must be busy or something.

I've got Cable access and it stops at 31% downloaded

I'll try again later. Sounds hairy. Glad you are OK.


Shaydz

 

that must have been some scary sh*t

 

How close did you come to the wall?

SuDZ

 

I kept it on that stupid metal thing, so not close. I consider myself lucky

who pays for your car if it comes off the dyno and totals it and you live? i know they would, just would I have to take them to court over it? I never signed any kind of waiver saying "if you wreck your car.."

 

wait u totaled your car? dam 14 psi?! remember that video u first showed at like 3 psi, dam, u wilding dawg, hope u and your car second are ok

 

NOOOOOOOOOOOO, me and my car are perfectly fine!! the strap snapped on the dyno and things went CRAZY but the only thing lost is a set of tires..

 

Yeah, they definitely look melted through. Looks like operator error to me. They're paying for the tires, right?

 

yes, they owe you new tires and a refund

 

from the looks of it they only had 2 straps holding you down in the front.

is that correct?

there should be at least 4, more like 6-8, holding your car down

I have seen cars put down 500 hp and 500 lbs TQ and NEVER seen a strap break, but they were held down with 8 straps.. it also looks melted

I WOULD NEVER go back there unless they were willing to pay for the tires and the dyno time

 

Rear dyno straps? They let it touch the muffler, huh?

 

Yup, my old place, Lightning Motorsports used 4 in front and 4 in back. My car only wiggled an inch or two when I juicey boosted.

 

yup lightning used 8 on my car for a dyno, dood im glad your ok that must of been one hell of a ride... glad your cars ok too.... mines in the body shop right now and i miss my baby already.

 

thats not good in any sense.. that could have turned out really bad. same question as everyone else, are they going to pay for the tires?

 

Good thing you weren't on a lifted dyno Glad your okay...
