Exactly! What I do with my street/strip car is disconnect the back carb barrels. slows it about 1/2 sec. or i carry weight, and can also adjust timing, easy peasy! Some use one of the mechanical stops. whatever gets the job done. like many, I just don't want to put a roll bar in a pristine 67 dodge coronet that is still occasionally driven on the street
