Longer if you do a huge Wheelie!😂

Here's a slip during the bracket finals. It was a similar wheelie to the pic I posted from Tuscon. I looked for a photo or vid of the pass & couldn't find one.

Anyway, below is a time slip from a decent wheelie. We didn't plan for the wheelie & my pit neighbor asked what I did to the car. I hadn't done anything & it was probably because it was the best DA we had for the event. Plus, it was a fresh track in the morning with maybe 30 vehicles made passes before me.

The 2nd round, our wheelies went back to where they have been set-up. Barely pulling the tires for 20'-30' The 60' improved to a 1.309 even though the DA went up 700' & I'm sure other factors played into it also.

Which means you are not a class racer -so why are you on this forum -move over to the bracket {throttle-stop } racing forums where you belong - I wonder if that big carb with that throttle-stop might be the problem why you
r slower 60' time equates to slower et- ED just adjust IT.!!!

Another reply to my comments, not the OP’s question and a clueless reply at that from another that thinks he knows.

Our stocker is a little faster with a wheelie.

Finals in Vegas had Mr. Sorenson have a huge long wheelie and was a .10 faster then Mr. Langdon.

and that has nothing to do with why Joe ran a tenth quicker. Everybody knows it was the headlights.

I forgot that tinfoil idea.
