I see what your saying but it's nice to know what your trucks making power wise. You can say the same thing about the track! Everytrack is different and the weather is always changing so there is a constant variable.

That why there is a correction factor to both. Dyno numbers help sell parts, yes but if my truck makes bigger numbers on the dyno than the next guy and the trucks are about the same ie; crew cab or 4x4 chances are the guy with the higher numbers will win. Then again you have to take gears,driver weight into consideration but i think you get what im saying.
