Footbrake to transbrake comparison
A lot of good points here.. I run two different classes and a brake is only legal in one of them. I have considered a brake for when I run 11.50 index on a 5/10 pro tree but because of the way my car leaves my lights and 60 ft times are as good as the trans brake cars I am running against. I installed a starting line rpm controller and it has helped because I don't have to look at the tach when staging. I also personally don't like two steps as in my opinion it is not good for the motor which most guys running a brake are using. A brake is hard on parts also as in the rear and trans I know if both are built right its not a problem but it is one of the reasons I haven't upgraded to one. I have also had friends telling me I should switch to a " Glide " for more consistency I would have to change my whole combo to do that that's not happening I like my 904s and have had very few problems with them in almost 35 years of using them then again I have a really good trans guy.... as said everybodys combo and situation is different this is just my opinion
