Super Gas

shortz said

we used to race super gas 9.90 down here in new zealand, the best thing we ever did is keep the electronic throttle stop **** from entering the class, sure we have faster cars (we were one of them) but when the only thing you can do is feather the throttle to stop you breaking out it makes for interesting racing. If they keep up with the electronic crap controling how fast you go, it wont be long before you wont need a driver, you may as well do it by remote control

That's kinda the view of the "anti-electrics" guys here. You essentially have a bracket car (9.90), electronics to control it, why bother with a driver? However there have been cases of guys getting on & off the throttle & the car breaking loose & crashing, so some might feel the electrics are something of a safety (?) item in that regard.
It's like NHRA (& NASCAR) are saying "You can race, but don't go TOO fast or we'll penalize you!":wack:Heads-up racing is too big bucks. The easiest thing, IMO is simply outlaw electronics & throttle stops--- or else go back to racing classes every weekend.
