Where do you get on the "gas" in the corner?
I run 10.5/8.5 on tracks that are 120' runline or less and try to get on the gas before the apex of the corner. I have been fast last couple of weeks just curious what everybody else thinks.

Depends on the shape of the corner, but on a tight track like Petes I would say as soon as the car rotates through the center.

...that is something I use to have fun with at a short carpet track we had.

They had the JLAP scoring system , and in practice mode you could make it call your lap times.

It was fun to play with where you got on the throttle..and listen to the lap time...and keep adjusting and hear the lap times get faster or slower.

With STOCK it was such a quick little blip of the throttle and back to Wide Open.

With 19t, you could drive it in pretty hard, and the quicker you could be back on the trigger..you could go wide open.

With MOD - you had to rollout early (way too early for me) and then roll in smooth and deliberate...and the quicker you could pick it back up, the quicker the lap times. Man was it hard to be smooth and consistant though ... the guys who can do WELL in Mod on a 100 ft. carpet track - are surely talented.

Alex, pretty much sums it up for me, too... Lift if you must, car rotates, back on in... I will either let off or "lift" at the apex (depending what the car is doing), then back on it as the car starts to square up.
