I've hardly really driven the car much (2,100), but I'm going to ask the guy that lives behind me about where is the closest place to get a dyno done. He builds race engines and has for years, people from states away have him do their engines. He has a dyno that he uses regularly, but it's a direct engine mount (BTW I LOVE IT WHEN HE CRANKS ONE UP). He also runs the local 1/8 mile strip on the weekends, I just happened to see his wife in town the other night and asked her how much of the racing season they had left. She said it's thinned out a lot lately, people were starting to go to the bigger tracks and that her husband was thinking about remodeling to a 1/4 mile strip.
