I believe with a clutch car and no 2-steps or RPM launch limiters, it would be difficult to stage 2 cars and be revving the engine in an appropriate safe manner and be ready for a Pro Tree.

It all goes back to the "Way-it-was" in the day.

The raw high-RPM, the 9,000+ RPM burnouts, the multiple dry-hop burnouts, the practice launch over the starting line, the 10,000 RPM launch, hitting 2nd gear in 50', wheels up in at least the first 3 gears.... this is what made Modified Production / Eliminator the crowd favorites.

Anything less ..... is pretty much boring,.... in my opinion.
