Throttle Limiters
 
What would happen if the NHRA policed all those restrictor plates, disconnected secondary mechanisms, and throttle travel restrictors, etc.?

Daren, you are not giving and considering the creativity of racers. Someone will eventually find the way to circumvent it. Besides, I don't believe NHRA has the manpower to inspect Stock and Super Stock class cars every run.

Why wouldn't they just plug the desired ET into their Grid and/or data recorder?

Don't think for one minute that they can't!

You would need a device to measure the lane distance.

They put that information right on the timeslip. You just need to make one baseline run to see what distance it says.

I know someone who uses them and NHRA allows them.

While your at it don’t forget about the modified cars running BS with one carburetor, allowing them to run CM that has 2 carbs lol guess that could be considered a restrictor only running one carb when you can have 2 �� I forgot, where only after the EFI cars ��
