Realistic Road Load Simulation Settings - Buzzу - 01-06-2026
Hi all, I’m trying to get my dyno settings as close to real-world road load as possible. What’s the best way to simulate typical street resistance so my tuning isn’t over-optimized for ideal conditions only?

To truly simulate street driving, you have to account for rolling resistance, air drag, gear selection, and throttle modulation. Most dynos apply steady load, but actual driving is more dynamic. That’s why modules Dynotest https://dynotestpro.com/ include configurable road load models — they let you fine-tune resistance to match a daily driving scenario or even a specific vehicle weight and tire profile. This way, your car’s performance reflects how it will behave in stop-and-go traffic, not just full-throttle pulls. It’s a smarter way to tune for balance rather than raw peak numbers.
