I dont think the elevated dyno is the main problem,
Id like to have more than just the one strap at the rear.

I will admit I wasn't quite expecting that, I thought it was going to fly off backwards when the did the run down. I'm not sure what the point of those straps were, they seemed in the wrong place to do anything useful.

I really like this one *laughing* the car tries to jump of on the first run, even with people sitting in the boot. Check out the second run. They get the biggest bloke they could find to sit in the boot and re position a strap *hehe!*

Or what about this one *surprised*
