who knows. it's probably ungodly expensive and not very useful, but that's what RC cars are all about

I have an on-road and off-road nitro car. i don't know why there is a dyno for it, cuz the nitro engines in them are rated at the most 2 horsepower at the flywheel. I guess its for the hardcore guys wanting to squeeze all the 35,000 rpm they have.

Dude, read some of the electric car forums. People go ALL crazy into tuning their motors. They have motor dynos and spend hours tuning the brush alignment and brush types, etc...

i wish i had that. actually, i don't. dyno's on rc cars are a waste of time and money, even the motor dyno's. lap times are the ultimate chassis dyno
