Well, no matter the shifter used , it requires an electrical activation to work,
Air has 2 issues , 1 electric, and air issues .
The electric has the same , but connected to same issues , electric current
Batteries get low , inconsistent it becomes,
All in what you trust, what one prefers

---

an electric shifter uses very little power, it only shifts twice for a split second and has 0 effect on being consistent. if you are racing these days without an alternator

Uhhhhh......not true. They put a HUGE spike in the voltage graph on a data logger when they hit. While this may or may not effect your car, they still do it. Plus they get REALLY hot. Anything electrical gets THAT hot, it is using some juice

We use air........well not really air, Nitrous. Since it is a nitrous car, was very easy to tap into that system to use the air shifter and only had to add a tiny solenoid and reg to car. Ours doesn't leak either

You are using the kind of solenoid I don't like. Mine runs cold. Not sucking power except when it shifts.

same as mine

Dont hate the players hate the game. The .90 classes have evolved into what they are. No going back now, it aint gonna happen. It is what it is

I don't understand the insistence on making ones opinion known on the guys preference on which class he wants to race. Who cares if the guy wants to try throttle stop racing. If you cannot ad anything constructive why not just move on or ad whatever experience you may have had or what your product preference is on an item.

What really frustrates me is why anytime a question that involves stop type racing comes up the conversation always seems to lead to the same inevitable place. That some people don't like stop racing and want everyone to know it. WE GET IT YOU DONT LIKE IT. My frustration comes from the instance of people to make sure they get their feelings known on the subject every time a post like this appears. Instead of adding constructive advice on what question the poster has. If they have chosen to compete at this level why cannot people just accept that and try and help?

So now I'm branded a HATER, because I mentioned Throttle Stop. WOW!





I wish I had known that I hated Stop Racing before I started the http://sesupergas.com/ 23 years ago. I must have hated it last year, when I raced it and I guess I'll hate it again this year when I compete.


" The .90 classes have evolved into what they are. No going back now, it aint gonna happen. It is what it is"

So NHRA never changes

Years back a Div. 2 racer Ronnie Davis approached NHRA about adding a new class and having an exhibition of them at the Southernationals. Things worked out as the class has been made permanent fixture. Maybe you have heard of it, it is called TOP SPORTSMAN.

Again in Div 2, five or six years ago, the track owners added some more new classes to the divisional menu. They now have a 10.00 index and a 11.00 index, along with the 9.90 and 10.90. The big difference in the 1/10th slower index classes are: NO Delay box, No active throttle stop. Guess track owners have to hate too.

The only races I can go to that allow active t-stop's are SE S/GAS races or NHRA races. I can go to NO/BOX-NO Active stop race at least 2 or 3 times a month if I want. Time will tell which type wins out.

Touchy aren't Was not signling you or anyone out in particular just a statement about the inevitable course these threads seem to take is all.

So tell me exactly what changed there about .90 racing? Adding a new class or classes did nothing to change ANY of the Super classes. I don't hate any class or how it is run. Diversity is what makes the world go round. There are plenty of options/classes for racers to choose and that is good. Just because super classes have evolved and left some in the dust is proof of that fact.

Sorry you choose to not like throttle stop racing to each their own and I am very happy you have a class to run in that you are comfortable with. Still don't see the need to throw stop racing under the bus because it has evolved from where it once was. Apparently you are not comfortable with what it has evolved into and chose to move on. Nothing wrong with that, but why bash those who choose to run it or just the idea of the class itself.

Have a pleasant day

This is about air or electric not what class anyone runs,but Al rather you know it or not you are very Lucky.We run the Viper & Camaro in the 4.70 index class and we are not allowed to use a throttle stop.
