Yep...good tune is critical but there are way more factors involved than just a dyno number. You're going to have discrepancies with numbers from one type of dyno to another, from one operator to another, from one transmission to another (since the figures come off the rear wheels).
So why do motors let go at less than 500 rw. Who runs race fuel...most folk don't. Fuel from a drum is much more reliable and consistent than pump. Then conditions on the dyno are not the same as those at the dragstrip. You're not launching, banging gears, doing burnouts on the dyno.
You dyno today....then go to the track maybe a week or month(s) from now. Tune is the same. Weather is different, things have changed on the car. You rock and roll at the track, things shake loose, car parameters change. How many folk datalog at the track, make fine adjustments on the tune or just shut it down if warranted, based upon the log?
