Default Dyno went wrong.....

Well i was going to go have my car dynoed today, since a local club had a dyno at their meet...Thought What the H..." could be fun before i do some more mods...

I HATE WORKING WITH AMATURES!

When I got the car up on the ramps the guy said, FINE!

HE relased the dyno, and asked me to roll gently the get the car positioned.. so i did very carefully, but i a second the car was on its way of the Dyno!!
Luckly i felt somthing was wrong and I braked..Took ud 30 mi nthe get the car down fromt those ramps with out damage on the car..

To top thing of, we noticed a a screw in me rear tire when we work on getting it down..so that was it no dyno for me!!!

Rwhp =0
Rwtw = 0

87´ Z52, 80.000 miles

-3" LPE front Y - NO PRE CATS
-3" Test Pipe - NO MAIN CAT
-Borla ZR1 cat back

Bummer, sorry you were unable to dyno it and now you have to patch a tire.
