Nothing really, unless honesty and integrity mean anything to them.

For those of you who take your car to the track once in a while, did you run your car down the 1/4 mile and noticed any improvement in times?

it maxes out at 28% adjustment - can't do 50%

I've never seen a yellow box/jacket, but could you use 2 together, and get 50%. Though if you were going to cheat milage 38% would be better since the km/hour would accurately read the mi/hour speed.

Though if I really was going to do something illegal like this, I wouldn't post about it on the internet.
