I'll be the retaining strap on the passenger side slipped off or let go.

Whats the problem?

Angrybird 12 · 07-22-2013, 01:48 PM

I wonder what damage it did to the car and if the dyno people would be responsible for the repairs.

Nope...roller drum support failed. Hence the sparks then the failure.

Not funny on any level. A nice car got damaged and it's a miracle that nobody got hurt or killed.

He should have never put that awesome ride on that type of dyno, What was he thinking, Just looking at the dyno he should have left his car alone. This is a post on what not to do,,

I don't disagree. I would never do it. But there are those among who HAVE done it, and got away with it.

This Mustang owner wasn't as lucky:

I have to go with some people really don't know. You show up to an event and a guy or company has a Dyno and you say what the heck. Maybe you assume they know what they are doing.

As far as whether or not that company paid for the damage, I don't know, they guy may have had to sign away liability before they'd dyno it. Always read the fine print.

I'll say this, when I did get my car on the dyno at an open house for a shop in Ga, lots of people around, but no one would stand right in front of the cars on the dyno.
