Re: Foot brake with or without 2 step
 
I agree with the above, try both methods. But don't completely give up on your two-step until you have it setup properly. The only way to do it right, according to a lot smarter people than me, is to run a brake pressure sensor instead of a button, and to use a brake pressure gauge. This way you can stage at the exact same pressure every time. You can add or subtract pressure to increase or decrease your reaction time. If you get an adjustable pressure sensor as well, than you are really good to go and have a lot of options.

But still... even with all that.... I'm just as consistent with the footbrake. It depends on what works for you.

Re: Foot brake with or without 2 step
 
I've used both and prefer the footbrake. It also depends if you are only going to race stock or if you're going to do some bracket racing too. I use the footbrake because I do bracket race quite a bit. When I run pro eliminator the quickest cars are 9.00, which is comparable to stock/super stock racing. If you run the two-step at local tracks you're gonna be looking over your shoulder at alot of 7 second dragsters for sure. I also don't have to change my driving style when I do race stock. Every run down the track is the same regardless if I'm running stock or brackets. If you only plan on running stock it doesn't matter as much whether you use the footbrake or two-step. I would still give both a shot and see which you are more comfortable with.
