Anything that you can do with the grid you can
petty much do with the EFI cars. There maybe a few exceptions but I not aware of any. BP
I'm not an expert at using the grid and this year of racing is over for me. But next year come on over if your at a race I'm racing at. I'll plug the grid into my computer and show you what it can and can't do. I'd worry more about delay boxes or boxes with in another box.

I use a 7AL-3 box in my car, and have a RacePak Sportsman in my car... they are independent of each other.. the 7AL-3 is my ignition box, and the RacePak Sportsman monitors the sensors in my car.. I'm not sure of any way that I could use the electronics to assist me in the deadly dialing of my car.. HOWEVER, I have been told, and I have witnessed several drivers, only having to hit the tree, as the "Cheater Grid" has them on their dial.. I have brought this to the attention of NHRA, with negative results.. they did tell me that there is a device for testing the Grid, but there is only one of them, and it's not available at this race.. IMAGINE THAT!!!
As with the Matty Box, there are a limited number of individuals that have access to the secrets, but I'm sure that the info is available if you happen to be a trusted friend..
Am I saying that those using the Grid system have the ability to cheat??.. ABSO-FREAKIN-LUTELY.. especially in the Super classes, where it's the same dial every time..
