2 step question

[Dave Gantz]

With a carb anyway, the car may leave differently with the throttle wide open, and rpm controlled by the two-step versus leaving with the throttle open just enough to hold a given rpm, or even from an idle.
Tuning may affect these possibilities, I've never tested the two methods.

With my 64 I would hold the rpm at 2100, = .01 2000. = .02-3, 2300 real close to big red. With two step and trans brake @ 3500 with pedal on floor delay box determined rt. I also tried the air cylinder on throttle lever with pedal on floor, idle it at 2000 just up to edge of converter (069 J) with four wheel line lock. I liked this system because of no stuttering. Let the button go and the cylinder pulls throttle to wide open (took awhile to get that set) with delay in the box. Popped button on top bulb. With those two systems it was .00s all night and still got sent to trailer quite often. One guy could bump the button down if he felt he was late off the top bulb, track champion quite a few times, dumb as a rock, could barely change his oil, his dad set it all up he just drove the car.

Are 3 steps legal in stock ? I don't have a rulebook in front of me. I currently have a 2 that controls burnout and a high RPM but would love to add a third for lauch
