Ed has it backwards. Ed hasn't figured out drag racing is heads up, or that "wannabe drag racers" don't want to buy a round in footbrake. Footbrake is the last thing on any "wannabe drag racers" mind. Hey Ed you also havn't realized,.. any Tom, Dick or Harry can adjust their reaction time using a timer to do so.

I think that you should ban trans brake and allow deep staging.

Might as well bracket race. If you wanna drag race 4 tenths pro tree.

400 pro tree or even 370 pro tree staged shallow isn't a problem. You just gotta be strong in making adjustments to the car. This is a street car with a souped up N/A 23 degree sbc. Stock all steel Nova with the front and back seat taken out with one Kirkey seat, stock instrument panel and dash, with roll up windows on 10x28's. It's a myth these cars won't move on a 400 or even 370 pro tree staged shallow. 4400 leave chip.

NHRA's S/ST .500 pro tree is really .470. The S/G and S/C .400 trees are really .370 even though the rule book says .400 and .500.
