Gump
I believe the rule states no pushing or cooling of cars past the head of staging lanes. I was told by NHRA head of staging lanes is the start line just before the burn out box. I know this because NHRA and myself got in a Disagreement about this three or four years ago in brainerd and they told me I was right afterwards.
This is same line your dial in must be on before you enter the burnout box, I believe the one at Indy is about 20 feet behind the burn out box (like most tracks) I have never seen anyone running a cooling box past that line.

Captain I have no problem with you running a turbo glide that’s what the car came with. But a turbo glide is about as close to a 200 metric or 350 turbo as a 9inch ford rear end is to a 12 gm bolt rear end.
