I’ve been on at .001 with a Maxspeed, on at .10 same carb...you just have to have enough power to do it that soon or it will know the breath out of it and you’ll get a dip. I had a big motor combo that liked .001 and shift at .020.at 4300 and it worked well. Tried it with a smaller motor and it was a no go

^^^^ This
Every engine/combo is different. The key? Test, Test, and Test some more. The combo will show you what it likes, not the other way around...

4400 on launch, .050 on stop 2300 rpm, off stop 2.75, 10.90@147 and change at the stripe works for me

Lenny5160,
When running 9.90 I go on the stop at 0.001 and coast at 4150. I come off the stop in high gear. My 1/8 mile is 7.02 @ 131.83 compared to 1/8 mile WOT 4.66 @ 150.00


I lose 18-19 mph.

You're about the highest MPH S/G guy that I know of. Probably coming off the stop around the 330 cone.

Can a double 0 dead on 122 mph car beat a 150 mph car?

I have a 57 chevy sbc mini blower I have been kicking the S/ST idea around. This would be just a fun car trying to run 10.80s flatout footbraking it. I'm usually red on a pro tree. I would give it a shot unless someone talks some sense into me. Has anyone ever won without all the electronics? Im sure there would be a train following me to the lanes.

Yes a former IHRA world champion in the 1090 class used to add weight, very hard to beat.very slow car
another guy from Atco runs our .90 series sometimes and uses no electronics and is very good
If I had a roll bar in my street /strip car I would use that as a back up without thinking twice.
Give it a try you might get hooked I see you are from Pennsylvania come run one of our mid Atlantic .90 races, the tree is set at .500 not @ .470 it would be perfect to get some seat time

How can you run a 9.90 class with no electronics?
