Adger years ago before all the electronics I took a hood adjustment bolt with the adjustment bolt welded to floor under pedal, had white hash marks and I could either slow the car down or speed it up, this was back in early 80's, but I am just a no name racer.

I have never seen one Yac. All I know is there are a lot of HITTERS in this area and they all speak of restricter plates. Way too many wires for me. In Q-JET we trust .!!!

I do remember one instance where a prominent D1 Racer was told by the then DTD (may he R.I.P.) to remove his.

There are soooo many ways to "restirct" performance. Depends on which "vein" you want to bleed.
