Default Who would be interested in a dyno day?

I currently attend UW-Platteville and my automotive group is hosting a "dyno days", we have done this is years past but we never really thought about advertising it on the online forums. This is one of the largest fundraisers of the year for us. What I would like to do is to invite anyone that is in the area who is interested in Dyno-ing their truck or car! There is no charge but we would like it if you made a donation of some sort, as if you were going to go to a shop and getting your vehicle dyno-ed it might cost you $100 for 3 pulls. We are certified for the dyno. If you do not know where Platteville WI is, its about a hour west of Madison. We plan on conducting this either the second or third weekend in April, I will know for sure a bit later. If you are in Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa or even Minnesota area and would like to attend please comment below.

Thank You!

Well my buddy has a Subaru who gave me an estimate of a cost and I just realized that a AWD Dyno probably cost a bit more than a RWD/FWD.

We aren't charging anything, but would like a donation of sort.

It is a RWD/FWD Dyno.

Actually we hit 70 degrees two days ago.

I'd do it if I had a truck that would do something on the dyno haha. I never really thought about dyno'ing my 3.9. Maybe it would be cool.
