If u are having trouble making the finish line margin TIGHT. some cars are diff. long front ents and what not. TIRES YES Trip the beams u shouldnt find a track with them mounted some were else. unless its some REDNECK ass crap. somthing you may consider to help that. would be MOUNT a FIN on the front bumper of your car thats low enough. now it wont trip beam at starting line it will be your tires. but ppl use it so when they get to the finish they smash the brakes going thru the strip and it trips with the fin. this will allow u to real him in even closer without being to scared that ur gonna let him back around you. but if it were me screw the fin. find your spot. u cant wait till the last minute on some ppl to start getting out of it. real em in early and drive those STRIPES. make it tight. name of the game.!!! hopefully see some of you guys @ norwalk CC...BTW 50k slant six with all 2bbl carb and trans linkage for sale. with super six intake. ran 17.72 @ 78 with 3.23 gears in my duster. pretty quick. had her tuned up nice
