i never have i don't think but the very first time my wife ever raced she pulled a .500 it was great becouse she told everone she had never raced at the track just street. so they told her how and she pulled a .500 and nobody believed it was her first time but she still gets close but not perfect.

On thursdays, the three yellow lights blink then the green, i like this pattern cuz it's when i get good reactions. On fridays, the lights are diffrent, well, everybody knows how they are(the 1-2-3-go pattern). I get like .650's to some .800's sometimes.

A 2-step cuts off the coils to one bank of cylinders. You can set the rpms to what ever you want in 100 rpms and then you stand on the brake and floor the gas. The motor will rev to what the to step is set for and stay. As soon as you let off the brake all cylinders start firing. If you have trouble building boost off the line it will help.

Harlan used to make them. Watch the FS section on ls1tech. They are getting harder and harder to come by.

All yellows at once is the pro tree...1-2-3-green is sportsman tree...the .500=perfect is sportsman,too (NHRA,but I think IHRA is the same)

.400 used to be perfect in NHRA pro,now it's .000
