The morons that owned the shop didn't even know how to strap the trucks down correctly. Instead of crossing the straps, they were just bringing them straight back and the rear ends of the trucks were walking all over the place, almost touching the ground and some points and other miscellaneous stupidity. The hall effect sensors on the dyno kept giving problems from being covered in diesel soot, and when they took them off to clean them they didn't get them realigned correctly and took them 2 hours to get it working again. They were also loading the trucks by GVWR, not actual weight! As you can imagine, this brought up some interesting issues when the 1-tons started running.

Dyno operators that don't know what they are doing frustrate me.

These guys were seriously dumb.
The "We dyno Indy cars" was the response both John and I got when we confronted them about the prepostrousness of using the max GVWR for loading, instead of actual weight.
