At what power level does it start to become impossible to get traction on the dyno??
I know Stacey's car put down 1600rwhp, I guess anything over that and you would need to winch it down REALLY good to get traction.
Stacys had the slicks on it and we were still getting some tires spin on the dyno.
There have been some claims of hooking Vipers on the Dyno with using street tires and making BIG power<1500+>. I would pay BIG for someone to come show us how strap a Viper down on the dyno so that it would not spin on street tires or slicks..

If you are referencing Dell, which I believe you are (maybe SVS too...don't remember if they had slicks on or not), the dyno operator designed and built his own contraption that pulls the car down harder on the rollers as the car makes more and more power. Apparently it works wonderfully and it certainly doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that it makes sense. I would imagine it should be fairly simple to rig something up using some pulleys.
Now, if you are willing to change your dyno, Dynapack is coming out with some new models that should handle 2000+ HP.

If something like that had a chance to work you would have to lock out the suspension. I doubt that is the case. I can pull a viper all the way down to where the tires rub the inner finders. We have locked out the suspension and made it where we could pull a car straight down.... still no difference. Again I will pay HUGE to have this proven to me in person at my shop.

Have you checked your rollers? They do get smooth over time. I don't know what A/R you run on your turbos, but perhaps your power comes on a bit harder and shocks the tires loose? I am just throwing shit out there. I know that same shop has dynoed several high HP cars and this guys system works great.
Today I talked to Kevin at UGR and he told me that car put down 1380rwhp @ 21PSI. That is lots of power for low boost. I don't have the dyno graph but I'm sure Kevin will post it when he find time. For now this is where I have decided to leave the car alone and enjoy the car this spring and summer. I am planning on taking the car back to UGR this summer with my G-force trans and turn the boost up higher but for now I don't think I'll ever need more than 1380rwhp on the street.
Kevin can explain about these strikers race heads much better than I can but they are the way to go if you want to make lots of power.
thanks kevin and kc

Maybe we can try some of that GOOPY GOOP!!
