That 1.29 60' is me leaving off the progressor at 40% on a 175 shot for the first second. On a good track I might be able to leave at 60-70%

That's nutty. I think I was trying to hit mine with too much power to get it to hook that good last year, coming out right on the converter WOT with the 150 hitting as soon as I let go of the brake button was a bit much.
I probably need to put a tenth delay in the kit and then it would probably work right, or progress it like you've got yorus set up.
Car's gonna sit for a while anyway... stuff to plan for when I get it back out.

im running a duel stage set up one dry one wet but just picked up a progressive and glad i did, our track prep is always horrible so I think I am going to benefit alot from this FJO.
These times are what im shooting for but with my cam only ms3 car. went 10.9 on motor. awesome times. what converter is in the car? and leaving off the brake at how much rpm?

The FJO is an awesome piece, that's what we use in all our cars. I have an ATI converter in my car mainly because they are 15min from my house. Not sure what I leave off the brake at I kinda do it by sound. hold it at like 1500 rpm then nail it and let go simultaniously on the last amber. But Im gonna be using a 2 step this year. You should get one too if you can, it will help your trans last longer.
I have been debating on a 2 step but seeing if I can get away with leaving off the brake on the nitrous without it. Im starting to think a 2 step with help me a bunch just like the FJO.

Yeah, those guys are also pulling the timing back to about 0 to get it out of the hole too though, leaving with some timing and putting a little delay/progressing the hit will probably get similar results.
My thoughts are to get the car to leave on full motor power n/a, pull the timing back to where I need it for the full nitrous hit and start bringing nitrous power in right off the brake until it starts either wanting to stand up or spin and then back it off a little.
