request same machine... his files will probably identify which one you were on... I always run on the same machine - but for this event I'll get on whatever is easiest for the schedule since I'm getting dyno tuned next week for my real files.

Yes, Dynapacks BTW

Makes it great for him. He can just jump from car to car to car all day. Even at such a great deal he can make some money for the day.

with the pricing the way it is and the giveaways + food + labor for his crew, it truly is a break even event... he's not doing this for profit (the shop is already doing amazingly well! He doesn’t need an event like this for profit)... he really is doing this as a favor to us.

Edit: In actuallity, Shawn's words to me verbatim were: This is a thank you to the VQ community.

I think I did my very first dyno on his 2nd machine, and did the rest on the 1st. Now, if they have the same calibration, I don't mind. I'm sure he does, I just want reassurance.

And kudos to Shawn for his support of the VQ community!

Dynapack. It can be sitting in the ground if you like (although you might not like the result )

As long as there is a way to get a jack of some sort under the car then it shouldn't be much of an issue. Dynapack is a HUB dyno meaning it runs directly to your wheel hubs, and doesn't rely on tire contact. It's safer and more accurate, but obviously more time consuming to attach the car to it.

I think most of those are in the 700-800HP range.
