Uhhh...have you ever been to a dyno? I’ve never seen one go awry, let alone catch fire like this.
Sure a fire extinguisher is something you should have on hand, but not literally in hand.

I’ve got to say this is far from worst case for having a strap break on Hellcat dyno run. Also, I’d suggest these guys start to replace their straps more frequently.

The dude didn’t tighten his manifold rivets. It probably popped a warning on his laptop, but he kept going.  Seen it a thousand times....

The fellow in the driver’s seat felt something break, and stood on the brakes. Rear brakes are not designed to stop the inertia of a dyno roller.

Safety third!

This “side loaded brakes” thing makes literally zero sense. In order for it to flex enough to cause THAT much drag the wheel bearing and hub would have had to been broken or this would happen anytime anybody gets a little sideways because the dyno is not “forcing” it to track straight any more than a road would be…

Agreed - I cannot stand Mr. Regular’s inane rambling and was disappointed to see that’s all this was.

Ughh, I was looking to actually read something, not click to a regular cars reviews embedded video that I refuse to watch. Why not just name these RCR posts or something?

Depends.  Is it Truck Month?

80,000 dollar trucks are objects i will never need or understand

That is perhaps the WORST film technique that I have ever seen.

I mean, can't just about any car do almost any task a small family needs?

Best explained in 1929 by Grossmann in his work, The Law of Accumulation and Collapse of the Capitalist System, capitalism’s fatal flaw is that, unchecked and unfettered, it will divide wealth in such a way that workers will, eventually, be unable to afford the goods they produce. At that point, the businesses they…

Don’t worry. the lower middle class is more than willing to spend 35-55k on a car and take out a 8 year loan on it.

What in the world is even middle class in America anymore? I feel like to have a comfortable middle class life and not live in the boonies, you need to be making 200k+ household... And to truly afford a 50k car, you need to be making 200k. Your house shouldn’t be more than 3 times your yearly income and your cars…

Let's just call it what it is: a car mortgage.

at some point maybe corporate America will realize selling $35-55k cars is difficult if there is no middle class

If that sort of thing is important to you, this is not the vehicle for you.

VW TDI transplant then. How 'bout that?
