What's that like?
Any advantage for a transbrake car same weight have over a foot brake car on a .500 Pro Tree if any?
Just curious
Yea, Jim we are screwed next to transbrake guys. Looking at just the bottom bulb than going to a .500 pro is a different animal. We can do it, just not as consistant as the tranny brake guys will.

I raced both of you. There's a lot of trans brake cars I'd rather face
Doug
Not so much the transbrake deal, it's the pro tree that's staggered for different dial ins
Lot's of good advice: roll in a little deep, BE Ready.
The car in the other lane dial is 2 tenth's slower, you're on the converter ready for the "flash" to leave...... oops that was his flash not yours and you flinched.
How many people race on a staggered pro tree?
Al? Quicktree? 67/rt, mfr?
NSCA ran a .500 pro tree in N/SS for one season. A lot of guys were slow. I believe that's because they follow the tree down. I don't,it didn't seem to bother me much.

I have a few times, just see it as a top bulb race. be set on kill. hopefully there will be blinders so you don't have to see the other side.
