No offense, but the only true way to get a time is by going to the track. You are just spinning the wheels and not pushing the weight of the car.......

It does sound good though......

I agree, it doesn't compensate for wheelspin and whatnot. Essentially creating the perfect pass, get her on the strip I guarantee you'll have more fun with her.

I disagree The Mustang dyno they use compensates for the weight and the drag of each car.It is accurate to within 1/10 of a second.Many people who race their cars on the track say the times on the dyno match the times they get on the track.I would love to take it to a track but the closest one to me is 2 hours away and if I break something It'll be an expensive tow back.Here's a link that explains what dyno drag racing is all about.Appalachian Performance Automotive • OFFICIAL DYNO DRAG INFORMATION!!!

i guess its sort of like kissing your sister.....

All jokes aside it good to see an alternative to street racing...

thanks for sharing the link with us....

Yeah, that article was pretty cool. I guess as long as you know the exact weight of your car, then you are home free.......
