Can somebody tell me how to do a Dyna with a broken mouse.

I read the tutorial weeks ago and now I didn´t find it

Thanks!!!

you mean a dyno? i dont think anyone ever finished that due to lack of resolution on the mouse end.

my friend has a "strobe tachometer" its good for measuring wheel rpms but its not a cheap piece of equipment.

Yeah I mean a dyno, sorry but I'm from Costa Rica and my english isn't good.

what you said it's true, probably what I want is something to know the RPM's the car produce.

Thanks.

im from ohio and my english sucks to. dont sweat it. i figured out what you meant.

well from memory a good dual cell with fine tuning was doing about 2300rpm(at the wheel).

a way to estimate this number is to take the motor speed(we will say 30,000rpm) and divide that by the gear ratio say 9.86 and subtract say 15% to account for slop in the gears.

so in theory a 3.0 motor should spin the wheels about 2500 times a minute.

but keep in mind a real dyno also measures torque.

the true benchmark for measuring power output would be the 1/4 mile.

I ask for, 'cause a friend of my wanna race with categories, but he don't want to make categories by time, he want by motor RPM...

Who knows whatta hell is under his PCB!!!!!

Tkanks!!

The neighborhood called Holmesburg, it's in the Great NE section of Philly.

Flyers are Winning.
Phillies are playing well.
Eagles have some new players.
The Sixers, well they haven't been that good since Croce left as president.

Hey I'm from the Northeast too! What up dog?!?

You are a bit farther NE than I was though. I lived in Tacony and Wissinoming for the most part.

I'm a HUGE Eagles fan and I'm pretty excited by the pickups they got in the off season...little concerned about the defensive backfield though.

Sixers...I have always felt Iverson was overrated...I don't doubt he has mad skillz, but he is so inconsistant performance wise and he is a bit too concerned about himself to be a great team player.

Doh! maybe we need to start a "Philly thread so we don't get too off topic
