We find that pretty easy to do, just tell them if you had a college athlete running a foot race against a grammar school student, the grammar school student is going to get a head start based upon the times both claim they can run the race in. To keep them both honest they can't run quicker than they claimed. If one runs quicker than they claimed they lose. If both run the race quicker than they claimed, the individual who ran quicker by the largest margins looses.
The delay box concept is understood so quickly they ask if people cheat with it in classes where it is illegal.
Throttle stops? Even car guys who attend don't understand the concept of the throttle stop!
