Staging light beam height
 

Help serve my memory. 3" from the track to the beam, correct?

the car has to be 3 inches. According to Porta Tree website the beam should be 2 inches. If you goto thier site and look under instructions and click on the one that reads "instructions for setting up a accurate drag race starting line" is where I found the 2 inch deal.

Here is some info on the staging beam locations from an article by Rick Stewart on NHRA's site

The car must have 3" of clearance to 12" past the centerline of the front wheel. Beyond that it`s 2".
