Dyno Challenge


 

How the Competition Works
Once Entrants have been processed at Registration and Scrutineering, competitors must visit the Dyno Cell to be allocated a time. Dyno competition commences Saturday (time TBA) and finishes Sunday (time TBA).
Awards being presented on Sunday

To win the Class entered,  the car with the most outright power is the winner.

How many runs does each car have?
Every car must have a safety shakedown run so that the Dyno Technicians are satisfied with safety.
There will be two full power runs with the Dyno Technician giving the owner of the car the option of another run.
After the shakedown run an Entrant may be allowed a max of three minutes after the shakedown run to make final adjustments. The Technicians will allow approx 15 secs of idle time between each run.
In the event of a computer glitch, a competitor will be asked to return to the rollers.

Fuels
Any type of fuel is acceptable.

Why should you enter?
It’s worthwhile giving the Competition a go. Firstly, it’s a chance to see what your car can achieve and ask a Dyno Technician for an explanation of what the printout reveals and then you can brag about the result.
The second reason is to aim for back to back numbers with as little variation as possible.
Best of all, win your Class, run with the smallest variations. Imagine how you’ll feel if you’re a little guy and you’ve knocked off the big bangers.
Whatever your size, power, make or model, you’re welcome in the Dyno Cell to run in the Dyno Comp.
