My newest American dragster is equipped with the FT 550. No delay box, no MSD boxes, no additional dial board box, no distributor. Has a cam sync where the distributor was. 4 coil packs on each side mounted on chassis. VERY clean and neat without much cluttered wiring. ALL runs thru the Fueltech box in the dashboard.


Ran last weekend in Norwalk 40ks, went a few rounds and very comfortable with new car and how east it is to use. Very user friendly so far and downloading runs and analyzing data is a breeze.

More info to follow as I will run it this week at Fling in Columbus.

One touch on top rt of screen brings you to your dial in, next tap to rt top brings u to delay, next tap rt top is opponents dial, next tap to top rt is back to main screen that also shows delay and dial in. Easy to move around and change. Works well with gloves on as well.

What is your box interface in the lanes? Touch screen? I was just uncomfortable enough with my megasquirt screen that we didn’t eliminate the delay box from the car. Gloves on impossible for us. FT’s interface may be easier

I was looking at the car in the lanes but couldn't find you to ask some questions. I liked the switches and everything looked really nice and clean
