Yup, the timed stuff will work great for dedicated straight line drag as you've proven.

Not as much of use for anything else though unless it accommodates different timing strategies when starting in different gears, from different speeds, it accommodates on/off throttle when non straight line drag racing etc

And I'd think a time ramp starting from 10mph, 50mph, 80mph, 100mph would all be very different ?
You'd want a slower ramp from 10mph than you would at 100mph

Mine is incorporated into the foot brake so when I come off brake boosting from whatever speed it starts

Yes to completely prioritized for a given speed the ramp speed would change. But it is still short enough it works very well from a variety of speeds.


Think about speed based too though

Let's say you have a nice program laid out for a low speed roll. It keeps the car on the edge of available traction..... let's say by 80 it will hold 15lbs of boost


Now lets say do it from a higher roll. Like 80. You hit it from 80 and the ecu smacks it with 15psi. The tires won't stay under it like that without a controlled delivery
