    "Correction Method: Standard". That uses a more generous correction then SAE. On Dynojet STD vs SAE makes a difference, not sure what you were on.

    <number without context> means nothing, <number with context> means everything... don't care if it's the 1/4 mile or a dyno, if there's no baseline there's no point

    i wouldn't say that the dyno means nothing. i would say it's one useful piece of information for you to compare before and after changes you have made. and it helps you isolate other variables like gearing, traction, suspension, etc.

    when comparing between vehicles though, the 1/4 mile is much more useful. dynos can lie or mislead (especially when used as a sales tool by speed shops), but timeslips don't lie*

    * I would say you should post the track location and density altitude if you want to compare with others around the country.
