"The Bender"Hey guys, go check out the throttle stop thread in Tech Talk.
I made a comment about how Ed's new throttle stop looks very much like one I had 30 years ago. It was purely just an observation, but he immediately responded to my post as to start trouble. and you can guess how it went from there......same old crap.
And Ed, I know you are reading this, have a nice day.

BP758Bump bump
Dennis Reid developed the Stop in the 70’s as well as a bunch of other devises back then..

What an asset for the racing community.
I bet that simple white trailer has offshore bearings, lights etc...
Hooks baited.. waiting for the jerk.
And for Moe we have the kitty

"The Bender"Wasn't Reid the guy behind Dedenbear?
Used to run Dedenbear timers and delay boxes, they were the gold standard back in the day......

Triple NickelLOL its nothing more than a billet version of the Dedenbear throttle stop that came out like the bender says "30 years ago". Funny how now all of a sudden someone puts the same fundamental design on a billet throttle body and it becomes an amazing piece of work that just is the absolute best thing in the world. Same principle same concept, different packaging. I'm with the bender on this one.
Dedenbear had awesome stuff, hated to see Reid get out (sold Dedenbear business) of the electronics side of racing.

"The Bender"Yup, big difference between a billet and a cast engine block or head, throttle stops....not so much.

T/D6591So what you are saying is that it doesn't repeat any better just because it is billet aluminum instead of cast?

Digital Delay has always been a hot ticket around here. But they are also local.

My cast one works great when the setup numbers are right... I tried a rod deal and it would not repeat very well... It was like chasing a wild dog....
