Your staging might be erratic. After I trip the pre stage bulb, I just roll in deep enough to get the stage bulb to flicker. There is a little room for you to go deep or shallow with both bulbs on, depending on tire size and stagger. You might not be locating in the same spot every time.

I also have the Biondo full size tree that uses the small, table top unit to run it. I had fabed up a wiring harness to allow me to unplug the trans switch and adapt it to the Biondo box. Set the big tree up in front of the car as far away as practical. Allows you to practice in the car using the actual tranbrake switch. You can work on ergonomics, technique, switch operation etc., in the driver seat.
If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

You might not be locating in the same spot every time. this was shared with me the middle of this year. one of the things I have been working on. probably still could be better, but trying to make sure i'm in the same spot every time . same friend told me to make my self consistent and then change the car to fit me. for some reason I am not seeing I am all over the board with reaction times. the car is very very consistent itself.

Just so we are all on the same page what do you consider consistent.

for example in a back to back race over 2 days a Saturday and a sunday I made 11 passes all with in .03 of each other. that was exceptional couple days but usually within a tenth over the course of a few races and weather changes. low 10.20's to low 10.30's the extremes this year was 10.19 on a 56* day and 10.36 on a 96* day. 60's run 1.42 to 1.43. the 10.36 was a 1.45. i have had several race days where i kept the car within a .05 window on e.t. but my reaction times again are always anybody's guess lol
