I DO agree with you sir!

But 1/4 mile (trap speed) is still a test of the driver, weight, how fat my fat *** really is etc...

(How's the Viper? I haven't checked your thread in a while)
Yeah, S&R's dyno numbers are a bit skewed in my opinion. I've never used/heard of a Land & Sea dyno other than theirs.

You are correct in that there are variables that will effect trap speed... but with all things being equal, it will be a true read of horsepower. Just like dyno numbers have so many fighting variables as well.

(The Viper is down again. I had it back for 2 weeks during breakin before it blew again. The motor was starved of oil, so the bastards didn't put enough oil in. The motor is still being diagnosed...2 months later)
