Let's all run a 6AL like me !!!!

I’m even more antiquated than that in the Nova. I run a 6T, with a “soft touch rev control” plugged in to that, then a 2 step plugged in to that.

Bob Welcome to the 2020's. How do you take care of the EFI's. Their boxes can do most of everything a grid can do but even more. Ban the 6al box because I never used one!!!! Why don't we all go back to points in our distributors. Most of the people that seem to be against the grid boxes are the ones that don't use them. Or even understand how they work. Don't hate educate. BP

Doug isn't a two step an electronic controlled devise. Can't you control starting line leave with them? That's another way to control traction isn't it? Lets ban them too. I don't use one. Just kidding!! BP

I understand what you're saying completely. The issue they are trying to get at is when people "not saying you specifically" use their latest and greatest ignition boxes/ecu/data logger, or a combination of all three, to make changes to how fast the car is going down the track without any input from the driver. In the grand scheme of things, they are relatively "not all that expensive," but there is a decent makeup of racers that either can't afford them, or don't know how to use them. It's the same argument like aftermarket engine parts in stock. Those that have a combo that don't have the aftermarket support/can't afford the aftermarket parts will be against allowing them. But those that can afford it and have combos that benefit greatly from them will be impossible to convince why they shouldn't be allowed to have them. As with everything in life, you can't make everyone happy no matter what you do.

whatever you do in the grid will only slow you down. it does have a launch retard. but like i said. it will only slow you down. it cant make your car go faster. i have the grid and only use it to compare my rpms on the throttle stop. and i have an AFR gauge to see my fuel trim

When my brother and I were younger and foolish we started out with a 1969 427/425 HP Chevelle. That was in 1975. Only took us two years to run the index. Man it was a lot of work back then with the factory 4 speeds. Now and I laugh saying this all you stick guys have 4 speed automatics. I know you use a clutch that's what they all say. LOL BP

Barry, my stick cars had a two-step only and me personally, I used the 3rd pedal. I respect your experience and wish things were simpler but ?
