      Huh? I didn't read anywhere in that article where anyone's claiming EFI slows anything down. As is usually the case, Grandpa Grumps is taking out his anger in the wrong direction. Meanwhile, "From a reliability standpoint of the [electronic fuel injection], I don't see any issues for anybody." WHAT ABOUT ALL THOSE ELECTRONICS FAILURES!!

      Where's Marky Mark when you need him? nevermind.

        The headline of the artical says they are pleased.
        It also says they are in the middle of the road so far as progress goes, so from your artical, it doesn't sound as bad as you are trying to make it.

          Face the facts: EFI levels the playing field, gone are the days of the six figure carb tuner. Now anyone can maximize their tune, and EFI biz is booming. I am writing this from a plane on my way to another tuning gig, every weekend for the next 3 months BOOKED. GOD BLESS NASCAR!

            If anyone can do it, why are YOU booked? Seems you must have something rare....the ability to tune EFI might be that rare thing

                wonder this discussion will end differently than the last hundred discussions on the same topic?

                  Wouldn't that be the definition of insanity?

                            Some people need it done quickly. That's where I come in handy.

                              I'm sure the prop guys hated kerosene burners too Jim. What I would like to see is real "Stock Cars" - cuz the Moat/Fipar's would be fun to watch with the AWD Taurus running 45 pounds of boost and anybody driving a 900hp FWD V8 (cough Impalla cough) would really have their hands full.
