shift rpm or timer
 
i have a 3200 lb with me heavy s st car that will run about 9.40 @140 wide open and with the stop coming on .2 and off 2.70 will run 10.90 at 136 at 2000 ft. right now i have all dedenbear electric t stop and shift componants. the rpm shifter is set at 7200. right now i dont have a data logger but i suspect shifting with rpm after the stop is open is causing some inconsistencies judging from my 60 to 330 times. do you guys think i should swith to a timer? its 4400 on the stop. thought doing it with a timer might be better for tire spin and the rpm should be more steady.

IMHO, shift on time, much more consistent. We also shift at 1.00sec, while still on the stop.
