if you get to the 60 foot clocks slower and you WILL, breaking the beam with any part of the car behind the front tires no mind the back tires, you WILL run a slower ET!

Ed, what does the 60' beam being broken by any part of the car other than the front tire have to do with your overall E.T.? IF the car is staged in the same spot and everything else about the run remains consistent? If the car isn't "bothered" by more or less of a wheelstand then the E.T. difference between the staging beam and the finish line beam has nothing to do with the 60' beam.
A "wheelstand" is nothing more than a residual effect of traction, power and acceleration. The proper control of a "wheelstand" will create the best E.T..
