Will370z Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 Words fail me, omg.......lucky people were not hurt. Bet thats going to be expensive http://jalopnik.com/shelby-gt500-absolutely-destroys-dyno-509929088 Quote
HEADPHONES Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 Damn......that ain't even funny. The car owner must be pi$$ed off big time. I know nothing abou dynos, so was it coz the driver gave it too much welly or just faulty equipment? Quote
shire350Z Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 Jesus!! Gutting and embarrassing for whoever was running it! Quote
SkylineV35 Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 ouch.... are shelbys really that powerful?!? Gives a new meaning to.. "tearing it up on the dyno" Quote
Jez @ H-Dev Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 Nasty. Looks like the retarder on the dyno blew up... Quote
4RE Leather Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 That did not look very secure with just a few straps on it. Prefer the one Abbey has as surely this could not happen on their set up could it? Quote
Wasso Posted May 26, 2013 Posted May 26, 2013 That did not look very secure with just a few straps on it. Prefer the one Abbey has as surely this could not happen on their set up could it? I don't think even those dyno units are bolted down? Quote

I don't think even those dyno units are bolted down? No your right they are not but wheel is held on by the nuts. Not very clued up on dyno's. Anyway cant do mine as oem clutch won't grip on full boost. But will hold fine on 5000 revs. I only poodle along but it would be nice to eventually find something thats grips without making the pedal harder. I have a re-ocuring metatarsal fracture that won't heal hence I could not do a long trip like wales. It went again 2 days b4 Japfest so i had to get a driver for the day. Quote
Clown Posted May 27, 2013 Posted May 27, 2013 See the guy in the background noticed something was wrong just before it blew up? Quote
