i think its stupid bc we get graded if we abort, moniters are not set etc... we have no control. some stuff we wont know till middle of test. i abort if theres a problem while dyno and i get my score messed up or if im in the wrong gear

u can check the monitors before u run the test. and shit don't abort. do what your job ask u to do. some people are just going to have to be gross polluted. gd luck either way with your job. it does clean up the lol subpar illegal smog shops. just adapt you'll be ok.

ok i do smogs all day at a test only also.i do not like the star program by any means but the data is a good view of what goes on and as far as aborting because of alignment issues thats what tie downs and wheel stops are for even though i dont use them
