How do you get the car off the dyno? It looks like a pretty big gap between the wheel and the concrete. I can just see that thing when its running become a 5ton projectile........

Only some stupid redneck would build a dyno out of tires. That shows what domestic owners are capable of doing.

Bwahaahaha! that's hilarious... I hope the car flies off the tires and like ruptures its gas tank and projects the driver into a tree filled with hornets nests or something painful-sounding like that...

i dont know why everyone has to hate everything so much, and to be fair domestic.. if you have any national pride, shouldnt be something to rag on, domesticated products are part of what makes our economy run, also if it works hes got me beat i dont have a dyno in my back yard to any of you cause if you do we need to hang out more seems more genius than stupid (of course assuming it actually works) i dont think i would be able to build a dyno and i dont think most of you **** talkers could either
