I strongly disagree. I have seen many cars, mine included, pull the wheels like that and run the exact same time as when they did not pull the wheels at all. Last time at the strip I tripped the sixty foot sensor with my rear tires for a 1.45 sixty foot time and a 10.30 @ 128.7 mph. A few passes later I had the front staying down and went a 1.34 with a 10.28 @ 129.13. That is just one example.

Vince Tosto your brother? Saw in National Dragster where he won the 10.90 index deal at KCIR (?)with a stick car and no electronics. That makes the kids with all the cross-talk/delay box bullshit look kinda silly. Evidently a pretty damn good driver. Congrats!

That's my dad Ed I was waiting to see that in the Dragster. Talk about an awesome day he was on and the car was just working. He's only run the S/ST class twice and so far he's placed 5th at the Gateway divisional and 1st at K.C.The car isn't even throttle stopped absolutley no electronics waht so ever just back the timing down and let it eat! Not to bad for a 56 year old Grandpa still rowing the gears lol.
Here's the car gold 67
