I think you would be a little quicker with a transbrake/2-Step setup with a Pro Tree transbrake, but you'd still be in the .040-.050s at best.

Most of the Super Gas guys run some combination of aggressive chassis setups, small front tires, and front travel limiters to cut a light. And that is likely launching with a lot less weight and more power than you have.
Thanks Lenny, that's what I was afraid of. A .400 tree is kinda ridiculous for a 6.50 car, but that's what the two tracks in this area run. I guess I just have to beat my opponent to the tree and get staged first. I hate to double bulb people and look like a jerk. I've tried just rolling in and not bumping, but I'm not in the same place every time so the RT and the ET vary.
