I didn't say there weren't A FEW. (The best examples I know of are Jack Costella's.) But MOST of the very high speed rigs are also very high bucks rigs, already (whether they have TC, or not). Why w

Bill, the only problem I see here is if your MSD is communicating with data acquisition from wheel RPM sensors. If the driver is in manual control of the retard feature, what's the harm? ____________

Wouldn't a "spectator" be able to hear it? I have heard it in road-couse cars. I know hearing ain't "catchin'" but but if suspicion was great, & SCTA wanted to make an example out of you, I suspect

Well NASCAR has been on top of the supposed "hear it" line of thinking and invested heavily in acoustical (if that's the word) equipment to detect TC. So far they haven't caught a singe one. Will SCT

I've heard people say that they have "heard" TC at El Mirage, also. Maybe so. What does TC sound like? Working in CART, I've heard some strange undulating sounds as some cars launch out of their pit

You don't need to hook to wheel speeds. An accelerometer and a slew rate rev limiter will do the job just fine.. Or rather than rev limit you pull timing out as well. The ones you can hear use rev li

Our old M8C McLaren Can-Am car used a timing retard rev limiter on its Chevy ZL-1 engine. When the rev limit was reached, the timing was retarded enough to suddenly lose about 200BHP. It didn't over

Most, if not all of the rules are a result of an accident or incident, or just experience. I would think it would be useful to know the history of a rule so that we can remain within the spirit of it
