Dyno Run

well, on may 5th there's a dyno day coming up here in Fremont Nebraska, and it's $50 to run on the dyno twice. well anyway i think i'm gonna do it, regardless of a slipping torque converter (unless ya'll talk me out of it). and this will be my first ever dyno run and i have no idea what to do. just wondering if ya'll can lead me in the right direction of proper dyno etiquette so i don't make a fool of myself.
thanks

I've personally never been to a place with a dyno machine that let you drive right up and dyno the vehicle yourself. They usually take the wheel for that. May just be a SoCal thing and folks not wanting to get sued, but I've never been on a dyno myself.

I dyno'd my own truck and I will next time that I go. I think it just depends on the place and how much stuff you have to sign beforehand.

ummm, so should i expect what? to have them do it, or just figure that they'll tell me what i need to do.

if nothing else, i'll just watch from the audience and see what they do.
