depending on your hp with the shot on... hp is hp.. as long as you have the trans and converter to handle power..i dont see any reason you couldnt spray while on the brake.. ive hit mine with a .63 (150hp)pill. while on the brake...(i realise thats not all that much)when my tires are good and track is good it usually stands the front tires up the most.. but its not consistant for me..mostly because it messes up my normal stage and launch routine .

not to sound like a smart azz but why would you say that? Nitrous TS spray on the convertor don't they?

Whats your 60' now with what kind of power... I dont spray but it makes a TON of torque and with any amount it would blow through a conv... all the guys I know that spray pretty hard hit it at the release and ramp it in for what the track will take... you have to remember that while your on the line the conv is making twice the torque and drops as soon as you start rolling

Been there, done it, wouldn't recommend it. 60ft improved from 1.30 to 1.28, but it was pretty much the same by the 330ft.! 1.76 glide 9" spragless converter, mild 440 in a 2850 lb. car. 250 at the hit, and occasionally before, then another 175 at 100ft out.

If you are going to spray it on the brake I hope you don't use a 2 step if so watch out hood and carb
Yeah especially if the engine stalls after the second stage timer has started.
My car is set up for the first stage to start at the transbrake release and the second to start some time after the transbrake is released. Somehow up at STL this happened to Mike Robbins in (now) my Demon when the engine quit as he was staging and he hit the starter...

NO............I tune several TS and TD cars. Nobody I know of sprays while on the brake. Why would you?.....If your car won't 60ft where you want it, THIS is not going to fix it. Something is not right in the setup if it won't 60ft
