Keep hearing stories but what are some techniques you have heard of?

Are you tuning to make it go down the track or tuning for a specific ET?

Hearing about the system being programmed to signal the driver the car is on or off the number. Maddy box type stuff.

That's not tuning....that's cheating.
There is a slew-rate box that can be plugged into the grid, but it is banned by most racing organizations.

I don't know about on or off the et. But I have a idiot lite come on around the1000 ft mark. If you think it can tell you if you off a couple of hundreths, then you better get a grid. No worse that using a throttle stop time at certain part of the track. But for the MSD telling you yes or no, the answer is no

There are endless ways of triggering the driver or car with this box about the cars ET. Is that cheating? I think it is but it's happening according to a lot of talk in the pits.

I believe that use in itself is considered cheating.
