What a great concept!

Some of us might be tempted to use it on the street as well.

That is cool!

So does this make the standard key the valet key?

I would hope there is a valet key that limits the engine to about 75 HP.

Kickass idea!

 

I don't have a key in the busa. Weight savings everywhere!

7evin has something similar in his car. He has a switch on the dash. In the gas mode lower boost less power. In alcohol mode more boost more power about 100 up more. The extra wheel spin comes with both modes.

When we had the FSAE car at school, for new drivers, we had an extension to the stop bolt for the throttle. Not as high tech, but got the job done.

My '08 M3 has a power button that re-calibrates the engine. If I hit it when accelerating, the car leaps forward.

 

Interesting that the Mustang GT now offers the same performance as my car for about $30K less. The Boss 302 should leave me in its dust, and still will cost less $. Ford seems to be on a roll. Glad to see it.

Me too, I'm glad to see any American manufacturer do well at this point...

 

My Emerald K3 ECU has three separate maps that are switchable on the fly. Check it out here: http://www.emeraldm3d.com/em_k3.html
