On the weekly radio show two weeks ago it was mentioned that some kind of speed checking device has been acquired, would you care to elaborate on what this is, and will it be used and what does it check for exactly?

Thank You.

Can someone explain to me how pointing a "gun" at a car going around a track can detect traction control or post a link to what they purchased.

Just curious if I have to change boxes this weekend

I have not seen it as yet, but I found this is on another forum?

What information there is is in a .pdf (Adobe Acrobat) file, which says, in part:

"MSD's new Traction Control Detection (TCD™) technology carefully monitors all the available signals of the ignition. If the TCD determines that a signal has been modified, the ignition will be put into a low rpm rev limit mode that will immediately slow the car. Before this rev limit is imposed, the TCD goes through a list of cycles and checks to qualify and confirm that the trigger signal has been modified."

But I also heard they will be checking right shoe sizes too
