Default REMINDER - Australian Ford Forums 1st National Dyno Event. (26 Nov 2005)

If eveyone has a memory like a sive (like myself) they would have forgot about this.

Just a reminder and heads up on the dyno day tomorrow.

the run it self, 5-6seconds. Getting the car on, strapped down, up to temp/speed, 2 runs and off again , about 10minutes

Well, i've charged up the Camera and the tripod is in the car. I'll have a heap of photos to post after the event. And it'll be good to see if the Falc still makes about the same power as it did 18months ago.

Well, if you see some guy trying to look like a pro photographer hiding behind a Nikon D70, chances are that'll be me. :
