 Again it is a Pi**ing contest.  I personally don't like it but if you
 call me ion it be sure of what you previously said.

Patience again Randall...  I'm beginning to wonder about the fact that St
Louis might have a "downstream" problem.  You have a knack for "out of
context".  This discussion was in relation to a TRACK evaluation of fwd vs
awd vs rwd on an audi quattro.  I reread the above with interest.  Not sure I
see the same things as this poster does.  Where is the inconsistancy
specifically Randall.  Open diff, reread that, open diff, reread that, open
diff.   I appreciate the fact you find my posts so interesting, but I really
don't see anything inconsistant with the post above on the TRACK vs my post
on a 2 wheel dyno.  

And again, without the spam, I ask that you post an informative post for
every one you use to spam me.  You are down a couple in that respect.  We
won't forget that either. Now, I have put up a post, an informative one,
regarding the use of 2 wheeled dynos for a quattro hp evaluation ONLY.
 Randall, you want to translate that to the track.  Won't jump there with you
sir.  It's in the owners manual (and the car isn't moving Randall), so many
shops are willing to do the procedure when you can show them the
manufacturers documentation.  The point is getting lost in the muck some
here.
