Glide and Trans Brake Strenght ?
I am new to this type of Racing [Trans Brake] I've always used the foot Brake. I built a 69 Camaro 6.40 1/8 mile car and a 6.20 1/8 mile 85 camaro both have Trans Brake. but I've never used the Brakes always just foot brake. My Question is will the Trans Brake tear up the Trans or rear end any more so than foot braking. comming out at 5000 rpm seems like a lot of stress on the trans and rear end. the car weights 2670 with me in it. it is 665 HP sbc 575 Ft Lbs Tq. 514- 9'' rearend 14'' x 32'' slicks and a 1.76 Glide. the Man who put it together says it was built to use the Break I'm just currious about life of the Trans using the Brake.
Thanks Andy
