I regularly deep stage my Corvette when bracket racing at my local tracks because the car does leave as hard as a real race car.
Here's away of looking at it in NHRA, why does super street have a .5 tree and all the other super classes have a .4 tree? NHRA took into consideration the minimum weight difference between the classes. So if you take a lower class car, it can't accelerate as fast as a upper class car, so deep staging would be a tool for making a level playing field.
Please no hate mail, it's how we race in south Florida. My buddy won the IHRA World championship in a1986 Cougar with a bone stock 302 that's been in the car for over 15 years, it usually goes 2.25 seconds to the 60' he puts on his window "XXX DEEP".
