I know of this portable chassis dyno for sale..
My current employer insists that I could make money hand over fist running a dyno shop. It's true that I could charge a premium as being the "only dyno service in the county", but perhaps there is a reason there are no dynos in this county? I would have to get a loan to start up, and be profitable enough to be able to pay back the loan and make a living. Anyone know of a basic business model for a dyno shop? I assume I would need insurance for the equipment, as well as liability insurance. And then there's advertizing, etc. Does this all work out to a easy money, or just scraping by? And then there's the question only I can answer... Do I really want to run a dyno all day? |

a dyno shop (ricer) just opened up next door to where I live. it's something like $65 for 4 pulls. they get a decent amount of cars in there, but I can't tell if they are their own or customers. I really don't see how you could get rich off the dyno.
