Hi all.
Some time ago I read that old competitions car drivers realized that by inserting a gap in the HV cables, the spark in the plug was "reinforced", like getting a more energetic discharge and, consistenly, a better fuel ignition.
This is a drawing about what I am talking about. The gap was obtained by inserting a isolating button and threading the cable tips throu two opposite button holes.

Is there an explanation for this spark strengthen by adding this gap to the HV circuit?.
Thanks in advance for your reponses.
