No, Kevin, a Dyno is a dyno, and road tuning is road tuning, they are dfferent. You can simulate some things on a dyno, but that is all it is, a simulation. The real world is the real world with all it's flaws an variations. I choose to embrace both.
Please descibe how on a dyno you would simulate a lap at Laguna Seca, Thunderhill, or even Fernley at 12PM tomorrow. Please incluide all data including track surface temperature at all points of contact, and tire temperature/pressure on each revolution at each point on each tire, air temperature, air speed, and direction, humidity, fuel load, conerweights on each tire throughout the lap, etc. Oh, and please explain how you will simulate cornering.
While you attempt to even provide a list of variables and equations involved in simulating the above, I can probably run a couple hundred real laps, or at least the the one at 12PM tomorrow if I could only get off work...
