Gears, tire size, torque convertor, slicks, etc. can all change the numbers you lay down on the dyno. That's why real world 1/4 mile times tell you if your truck has improved performance or not. Skips truck may make x amount of horsepower and yours may be a little more peak. However, skips may make that power through more of the rpm band and lay down a half a second better times. That's really when it all counts, when you are next to someone and mash the throttle and walk them like they are standing still.
