Drive by wire in foot brake class

My grandson has started racing his grandmas 2011 Lexus GS350.
He was very successful in Jr dragsters.
His RT are all over the place with the lexus. While at the drags last Saturday a buddy mentioned the successful drive by wire racers are using a device that plugs into the factory throttle wire loom and allows the throttle response to be changed. (Roar pedal)
This got me to thinking is fly by wire inconsistent in applying the throttle body? Does anyone here have any real world experience with this drive by wire modification?
