Re: Tuning ET with msd grid

Ok so having an indicator of time from launch is ok and not against nhra rules? I have to take your word for it. It seems like a grey area.

I have seen guys run the same dial for 3 days in a row, they must have something going on.

The racers are tough, and if you think I am going to look at the light going 140, when the other guys is going 170, you have no idea.

Easy there Maverick, i was talking about blatant cheating, ie: using matty box, arc control, or having a delay box hidden in a class that does not allow it. now if the light coming on to give you track position to et. then it is a form of cheating and that should get a warning then if found again yes, banned. The light coming on would be a tough one to police as i had a shift light that would come on around the mph cone. i was asked about that, at the time is was just that a shift light. it came on at 6500 rpm no matter where i was at on the track.... lol

I have been wondering, What was your true intent when you decided to make a timer turn on a light at the 1000' ??????

Does it trigger anything else?
