Thats exactly what my RX-7 did last time it was on the rollers.

 

Umm..did his car actually break the dyno?

 

That did not happen.

 

God damn , makes me think twice about wanting to Dyno my car... Couldnt imagine what would happen if this was inside....

RX7 + Wall are not a good match =P

 

At the end of the video some guy scream " carl broke the straps on the dyno"
The scariest part is thayt it's a mobile dyno so it's way off the ground. I've seen a few vids of car stretching the straps just enuff to let the tires hit the ground and the usually urible noises involved.
Anyone else seen the dumb **** with the 240sx on the dyno, he's almost done his run when he thinks his car is gunna fall off so he slams the brakes and destroys the dyno???

 

I have read about this and the story is that he broke the straps not by power, but because they were touching his exhaust. the staps started to melt from the exhaust heat and then snaped with the tention from HP. Soooo never trust the operator, double check his procedure and set-up.

On another note, could you imagine the guy doing the testing. He must have left quite the brown stain in the Model-T interior LOL
