1200HP/1000TRQ Breaks Dyno Straps!!!
Something I found on a forum I frequent:
Video Link (save-as)
Local guy here Carl with his 1929 Model A put down some nice numbers.
During Car Craft in Minneapolis, MN.
His 1929 model A up on the dyno lets just say 1200 hp
1000 ft pounds and the 4 tie down straps didn't hold the big beast down on the dyno the car made a hard leap forward. The guy that does the driving earned some respect today being able to stop the car before it went off the end of the ramp and into the crowd. Carl was lets just say oh shi**** when that happen but he took it real well, the wife on the other hand had to have a few cocktails to calm her down!
