    Dude, that's Dash Command, not a dyno. I barely trust the boost readings let alone the "power" estimates.

    A dyno and how it drives are to different things.

    Was just saying, if you're talking dyno and show a screenshot of Dash Command you're going to get questions.

    My car was dynoed on the Mustang Dyno at Helix. The dyno is nicknamed the "The Heartbreaker" because everyone comes in saying my car makes.....and the the heartbreaker show the true number.

    Also it sure as hell was not cold out because JAN will not come to the East coast when it's cold. He is a so-cal guy. :lol:

    So anyway I originally posted just to show my excitement for my Mini that goes way faster than my untuned Mini that I originally bought for $2500 a year ago.

    This is true! And it looks like you know how to drive that Mini! If you can you need to come to minis on the Dragon.

    You should be excited. You also started one of the better threads in a while.

    Mcs02 My parents live in Knoxville so there's not really any reason why I couldn't make it down there to the gape with the Mini. Of course I would trailer it down for the 10+ hour drive from the middle of Pennsylvania.

    6 for me from Memphis. I do the trip in my R53 (Long live the R53) with the Koni’s on full stiff on the rear. This time I may bring my R58. Dave puts his straght pip on the Mistress and makes a long drive. Driving the Mini will be fun.

    Are all the AX courses that short in your area? How many runs do you get? I'm migrating from AX to Track currently due to the seat time difference between the two.

    So far that one was the shortest one. We got 8 runs at it. We also go to a airport but we are limited to stay off the white paint. Here is our last run there. It was the highest speed course too.

    Son at the end gets pretty excited kinda funny.

    I can't go back to the track I spent way to much back when I did on a sport bike. This is enough to keep me entertained and go to the limites safely.

    Yeah tires and brakes get pretty spendy if you spend a lot of time at the track. In my area AX is TOO popular. We might get 6 runs at a meet. Might.

    It also gets spendy when you send your bike off the track sideways without you on it. LOL
