Low Band Apply Question

Thank you for the compliment on my 65. I have owned this car since 1969. Always running a 999 [904] and never have had issues with the trans [burn out] procedure/failure. I have been racing this car since the 80's. Always a small block...now just a little bigger small block! 433". As you can see, 9.53 dial, yes it covers this number all the time. Single carb no power adders.
Burn outs...never 1st gear! I sometimes use 2nd gear and shift immediately into 3rd. After the burnout, I make sure I stop, shift into first and move forward. Pre-stage, [no neutral at that time] then stage when my opponent is present and ready!! Trans brake button on, Enjoy the ride upon button release!
