Noob question:  I know what a dyno is, but what is a "pull"?

[wahoo5]

A pull is one run on the dyno. You get 3 for $50 as part of this special. Someone else will have to explain the derivation of the term.

in all actuality horsepower is a measurement of how many pounds a horse can lift by pulling in one minute 150 lbs  220 ft  and that is also where foot pounds of torque come in.

here's the website that helped me understand  :

Here a few pics and a video for those who missed it. The video is a Ferrari F430 Challenge car on the dyno. Sweet sound.
