Same experience in MD (pre- 88 brake conversion!)

When I first had my '85, it still had '85 brakes (with front p-brake, of course). They put the front wheels on the dyno, and every time the guy accelerated, the car would walk to the right and slam the right front wheel into the side of the dyno! After 3 tries they just did the older test (sniff the tailpipe and roll it). I didn't really care about the wheels (manhole 24 spokes) as I was about to do the conversion to 88 brakes anyway, but it really frustrated the tester. My brake pads weren't too happy either...
