You should have some kind of stop under the pedal. Like someone said, not to stress the cable. Also, all the travel you need is WOT.
If you install a bolt under the pedal. You can adjust it very close to what you need to run. For a street class, I would not get to crazy with electronics.

Years ago..Before electronics became the norm for slowing cars down. A guy that raced SC with an injected altered used the bolt under the pedal...each turn was worth @ .007 in time...Seemed to work well for him.. Another guy that ran S/ST ran a BBF with 2 vac. carbs on it. He drilled holes in the vac rods and would put clips in a hole to limit how much secondary the car would see... both are examples of limiting the total throttle the motor would see

My question too..How much do you need to slow it down ?...seems to me in the 1/4 mile over the 12.00 range you could so something other than a throttle stop on something like you mentioned..
i agree with taking out the timing//thats how they slow em down from the funny cars on down ( little more sophisticated with electronics but never the less the same reults as backing down your distributer).
my 2 cents.
