Asking this question again for clarification. If one does not have an aftermarket drum and LBA, will launching car in 2nd avoid (for the most part) this issue?
I suppose it would, but you generally need first gear in drag racing. Since it’s generally when you freewheel the trans in 1st without the band applied that the drum is at risk, Most do their burnout starting in second to avoid the issue.
