    Any Dyno Days?

    Just seeing if any Dyno days are coming this late summer or fall. I did some light mods on my Cobra and was looking to do some runs to make sure everything was good, knowing if I made HP is great but more concerned about A/F, etc. Also good to hang out with other owners and shoot the shit. :coolman:
