Why caint we all just brag on how well his daughter drives instead of turning this into an arguing match about foot braking verses not? Who gives a flying FRIG? Yall shut that crap up and go make another thread for it. I think she's doing a great job and that's ALL this needs to be about.

I don’t see any problem with my post. I read something I disagree so I said what my car did from foot brake to trans brake. I do believe the OP did say something about foot brake and trans brake????????

if those are true, it’s by far the biggest disparity from one to the other I have ever seen or heard of. Hundredth or two or three maybe, can’t remember of hearing bigger difference than that.
The converter is gonna flash where it flashes, it could care less if you foot or Tbrake it.
it’s gonna go right to where it hits at, either way.

I gotta kind laugh at your post, but I will leave it at that

You can laugh all you want, the time slip don’t lie. Sometimes I wonder if you have even raced in your 150 years of racing knowledge that you seem to have.

I have posted 10 times more time slips on here( at least) than I have seen from you, and I doubt anyone on here would disagree with that.
2.5 tenths difference from the foot to using a brake…never heard of it

1.29 trans brake
9.96 ET foot brake
9.70 ET trans brake

My experience is, the faster the car is, the more disparity you’ll notice using a transbrake over footbraking. 12 second car not so much difference at all. 7 second car? I’ll leave it at that. I was merely giving credit to the young lady for having some skill. I think we can all agree on that at least, cause footbraking a 10 second car requires some.

I’m glad I you learnt something today. Your welcome.
I was told by many many racers that trans brake won’t gain much, maybe 1-1.5 tenth at best. 1st hit it was 1.30 from 1.39. Ended up getting 1.29 that day.

You know if I was there, I'd have taken that old Dodge Ambulance for a pass ..... .

:lol:
 
Car looks great, and runs just as well.
Driver seems cool, calm, and collected.

I’m sad to hear of that track closing.
I spent many a Wednesday night there in 80-82.
 
Sweet pass and a great looking car.You should be proud and I bet that puts a smile on your face everytime she makes a pass
 
I can never decide if I have any love for that era of a bodies, then I see a build like that and I’m like “oh yeah!”. Very nice build!

patiently waiting for the foot brake vs trans brake thread to start :p
 
Very nice little car runs hard too. I'd love to have a solid, straight 66 to put my 434 in.
