Ya mean if I back half it I could,
1. leave on the trans brake at 5500 RPM,
spraying a gazillion shot
2. bring in the second stage at the 330',
3. shift at 7500,
4. go thru the traps at 8000,
5. pull the chute?

YEEE - HAAA!

Ya, but why would you wait until the 330' to bring in the 2nd stage ?? Wire that sucker to a digi-set and bring it in at about .3 sec after the drop of the transbrake
