Perspective from the slow car. I see the whole race and it's "infront" of me. I position my mirrors out to see the car comming up from behind. I look forward at my incremantals, stripe, and my opponent (in the mirrors). I can hold a lot (.02-1.50) and it's easier for a slower car to scrub ET. I try to dial a soft number that I know I can make and adjust with the brake pedel on the top end either by dummping just before the finish line or taking a .010-.019 MOV.
79CamaroDiva, OK you trust your car and say you dial .01 hard to be "safe". What happens when you stage a little too deep? Suddenly your now .04 over. Just a thought.
I also dial on 5 numbers , always round up, and then put some in the bank. Not right or wrong just how I roll.
