    Can't have been tyre shake, you only get that ON the throttle, not OFF the throttle.

    What I know is:

    - The driver disengaged the clutch, allowing the rear wheels to free-wheel.
    - Obviously something came loose in the rear end, the wheels were loose but still hung on to the car.

    Never seen anyone run a dyno like that, usually it's a quick stab for a few seconds??

    He really was dumb for letting it free-wheel on the dyno, why would you do that?

    With some dynos, you can allow the car to free-wheel to measure the transmission losses and calculate a fairly accurate flywheel horsepower figure.

    How the hell did they stop the A?

    And that other one, were they revving it to 10 grand, or using overdrive for the pull?

    What's for sure was that this was a pull with a very tall gear.
