Driveshaft Speed Sensors
 
Should they be banned in Stock Eliminator?

as long as they are solely hooked to a data logger for the purpose of measuring converter or clutch slip, no. If its being converted to MPH and displayed or its hooked to an ignition box, yes.

I was told this weekend that some Cobra Jet cars come with traction control from the factory and therefore it is legal.

Is that true?
(I have no clue... flame suit on...):eek:

My next question would be, "Should it be legal?"

I'm always envious of those high hp. cars that only slip a radial tire a half of a turn at a hot and slick track.

That's a problem if the DS speed is not separate from the engine management system. The new cars probably have all sensors being monitored, so it would be very easy to manipulate the engine output if the DS speed did not match the front tire speed. Data acquisition and engine management should be separate.

Good afternoon Guys,
The production Cobra Jet's do not have traction control.
Could they? yes, but not any easier than putting a Davis system on your carbureted car.
Or running a delay box.


See you at the races,
Wayne Kerr

Shelby Mustangs come with traction control, Cobra Jet Mustangs do not.

I would add wheel sensors to the discussion.
