              dyno'ing is generally at the users risk.

              and that HAD TO be the owner driving, I have only driven a small handful of cars on the dyno and the split second it starts to move you can feel it.

              any links to the aftermath?

                  Apparently the strap was melted from his exhaust.

                      actually, it was his WG dump. I can't remember where but I saw a picture of it.

                        That makes the most sense. The devil's in the details.

                        Whenever I have my Probe dynoed, not only do I get a front/rear strapdown, but extra chains to the front subframe....although I think I will use a Dynapack chassis dyno next time, as the last place was fraught with difficulties as my side-exit exhaust kept knocking out the dyno electronics and 60% of the pulls were wasted (which gets expensive not only in the $/hr charges, but fuel and slicks burned).


                        I'm also shocked at how flimsy the rear straps are. They're lucky it didn't go out through the wall in the back...
