IMO it should not be allowed in any but maybe the top classes of heads up racing. Pro and Outlaw maybe XDR..Honestly I dont think it has any place in drag racing but that is my opinion.

I have used the davis only on one car and I personally had better results with the built in traction control offered in the ECU of a few bigger name fuel injection systems. They absolutely will not make a car smoking the tires go down the track they are just a bandaid if you just do over power the surface.
One day I will have something cool here.

I won't be running a class as it is mostly a street car. All it will have is a blower and two dominators with an MSD 7al..so my question I guess is... Is there any other area it would limit power in a blown carbureted application other than pulling timing according to spikes in driveshaft speed?

just a ??? cause I don't know.. why is this looked down on but guys use progressive controlers for nos..seem to me to be about the same..i have know idea and will never be fast enough to have 1 but thought I would ask..
I would think that a progressive controller has a fixed (user programmed) "ramp-in" and does not change on the fly. The DTC is constantly adjusting down track and making changes for wheel spin.

so by it being more advanced its wrong????  i just don't get why cause they both do about the same 1 is just more advanced then the other... control over timimng is control over timing no matter where or when it does it...apple is a apple even if it is green not red..

Traction control is ACTIVE.."Riding the dots" is passive, YOU decide the parameters for riding the dots and once done there is no changing it. Traction control is adaptive and active.
