The last time we did a Dyno day, Paul G. brought a grill and did the burgers and dogs.
I was going to setup a day at Anthem but..........
If you find a place and they can accomidate us on a Saturday I'll get an email out.

The guy at AZ Dyno Chip (ADC), http://www.arizonadynochip.com/ , knows his stuff. It's a Dynojet, so inertia type dyno, but he really does knows how to work the thing and tune. Probably shouldn't be tuning on a dyno day though. He'll produce graphs corrected to SAE value with zero smoothing, so they're realistic. We had a dyno day a while back at AZ Dyno Chip (ADC) It went really smooth, efficient and was really fun. The dyno day we had at Arizona Dyno Chip had the guy that runs the place making dogs, burgers and chips with pop. He's really a great guy, quiet and modest, but you can see his brain working while he works the dyno. He loves Fords too.

Dynojets, when used correctly, are going to come out very close to HP calculated from trap speed of 1/4 mile. Definitely the most fun for a dyno day.

I used XACT Dyno
A fellow named Tim runs XACT. His is a real fluid dyno, so none of the problems inertia drums create wrt spin-up rate. His dyno bolts to the hub, so no tire spin on big power cars, resulting in errors. No tie downs and sand bags for weight/traction needed. I wouldn't trust an inertial dyno, unless I had no other local option. Tim has a weather station built-in for true SAE corrections. He's also a real sharp tuner who found I make the same power at 28 deg advance that I get at 32, 34, or 36, so we backed the timing to where I'll never detonate! He can handle the power from any of the local Cobras; he tuned mine to 540 rwhp in 2 hrs. The thing that was really cool was that he could set in the computer the time to ramp from 3000 to 6000 rpm (we used 6 sec) and just floor it, the computer on the dyno controlled the load to linearly ramp the rpms up. Not like the old days!
