I always lean towards your way of thinking, I like to let track results do the talking. I think dynos are great and they definitely have their place, but I try not to get to hung up on their results.
Several years ago some friends of ours up here in DFW both had similar Mustangs, well they were always in pissing matches over their dyno results, but they never dynoed at the same place and I don't think the dynos were the same brand.
Even more interesting is the guy who always dynod like 75 to 100 more hp/tq (with less mods even, lol) got his but handed to him at the track by the other guy by at least 2-3 car lengths.
