Default Adjusting fuel mixture without stoping your truck

Guy at our track is running this little micro servo that controls his Highspeed fuel mixture, so it can be adjusted on the fly,
anyone ever seen one of these?

im not realy sure but it could either be a fuel pump with out the pump


can you get a better pic because i think it clould be part of a comercial dishwasher the detergant valve with a throttle ball joint attached but i personaly dont trust something like that just spend 5 mins befour each race it seems too risky to air leeks and just dam right confusing if your engine is running weired lol

Its some kinda micro valve that is controlling how much fuel is being given to the carb.. kinda the same setup as a airplane motor but those have a thumb turn on them not a servo

Yes exactly all it has is a valve and the servo is attached to the valve. Not sure if that's how you want to adjust your mixture though.
