Hey guys,

I'm just wondering if you guys know of any dyno's (aka rolling roads) in Brissy. I'm looking for something very specific......a movable dyno.

Does anyone know of anyone that does this? Please let me know some names as I have a great idea that I would like to get off the ground! It needs to suit mini's / mokes etc (ie a 2WD dyno). Would prefer someone who deals with mini's but I'm not going to be picky if they don't :wink:

Cheers, Nick

theres always dyno days that are posted on boostcruising and im pretty sure their rolling dynos are moveable and deffinately 2WD. this was a recent dyno day (i think last weekend) by going off the sponsors poster if looks like "dyno dynamic... Aust" its a start anyway

Thanks for that >Rude<. That wasn't a total waste actually.....I spoke to a guy there (Brock from Mazfix - Dyno Dynamics are the people who make the dyno's :) ) and they didn't have a movable dyno but he gave me the number of a guy who does (I am currently waiting to hear back from him - I'll cross my fingers now).

Thanks for that spraycanmansam but unfortunately he is in the same boat as the dozen or so other dyno places that I have already called :cry: It would have been good seeing as he has worked on mini's before.

Thanks for the suggestion.

I am hoping to be able to get my hands on a dyno (most of you will probably have worked out what I'm trying to do with it by now :wink: ).

That's it :wink: I had a brain wave and thought it could be an idea - the hard part so far has been trying to find someone that has a movable dyno (and I haven't even got a price yet :roll: ).

If it does eventually work out, a dyno session is definitly one thing I WOULD stick around to see.



Louis, you are just too smart for me :P I just can't keep secrets :lol:
