I agree that dynos are just a good tuning tool, but track times can be misleading as well. If some guy runs at sea level busts out a 10 second pass, the same car would be considerably slower at 5000 ft elevation. So it all depends on certain conditions. It basically breaks down to the fact that dyno numbers and track numbers are simply that. NUMBERS. Engine performance changes all the time. I don't understand why everyone feels like that have to post their track times. As long as you enjoy driving your car, who cares what it ran at the track or pulled on the dyno. Of course, I'm gonna post my track times as soon as I get this piece of **** running. :-) but you get my point.
