I asked the tech if it was possible that the straps could have been affecting the brakes in some way. He said it was possible but unlikely. Since it was only one wheel I think this may have happened. I'm going to crawl under the car tomorrow to see what I can discover.
As far as the numbers. Throw away dyno. The car runs real strong. But that little bit of doubt enters your mind when something like this happens. If possible I'm going to the track in the next 2 weeks. Another first for me. Gotta look for a helmet.
I wondered how stingy the dyno was so after a while I went back with the 300C. More or less the same conditions. Water temp was 220. Hot, hot, hot. Pulled 265 hp and 295 torque. So the dyno is a little stingy. And the dyno is cheap! $20.00 for 3 pulls.
