Default Shelby GT500 destroys dyno video

Have you seen this yet ? I saw this and if I was the owner of the car, I would be really ticked. Gotta see this.

I saw that on another site. That traveling dyno owner would be hearing from my lawyer in a matter of minutes.

.....at least nobody got hurt.

The straps looks like the cheap ones, bet the right side strap broke sending the dyno to the left side of the car. Looked like a bad set up all the way.

Ray, I think the roller just exploded. If you look, right as the car gets into the peak rpm range, it doesn't budge at all. ....then the roller unit explodes. No matter how you look at it, it was no fun for anybody involved.

Probably correct. The tires are doing over hundred when that thing came apart.
