Does anyone else use them? I think this is one of the greatest inventions for a drag racer! I need to dust off my port-a-tree and get back to practicing.. kinda been slacking with school work... argh
Here's what mine looks like.. I've got a throttle pedal for it, as well :metal:

I have never used one, but after getting my ass handed to me by a pro-tree, I think I might need to. Where did you get that?
Nice!! I've never used one before, but played with some on the computer before just for fun. I really need to get one of them though.
I got mine from summit but you can get them from jegs too.
I have to say they are a great investment since r/t is sometimes what decides who wins or not :)
I would love to get one of those!
I just always figured they'd be a nice toy... but not really effective. Seeing as how i launch with my leg, not thumb. I could easily be wrong... never used one.
Besides, i only TnT, never actually "raced". Heck... they cut our slips in 1/2, I have no idea what the other person ran/lighted.

You can always buy a pedal for it, and I have to say it really is effective cause I went from cutting .500 lights down to .001 - .020 lights, but I would not recommend this for people who just go to TNT nights, I only recommend this for people that are wanting to get serious about racing. :cool:Quote:

I should dig out my old slips.... I have NO IDEA what kind of lights I got. Some times I was more interested in getting the RPMs where I wanted them before launching... or if it started to push through the brakes, I'd red light it just so it wouldn't be a waste of a run.
