It was allowed at WSMC, yet I was crucified for even talking about flash pan ignition on TRF. There isn't even much difference in the amount of BP used....unless you just like to see big fireballs and scorched rocket tails!

Now I'll have to build myself a separated cluster to play with. Classic green cannon fuse burn rate is about 20s/ft to 30s/ft according to brand, IIRC. I believe the pink thermalite I used to have was about 20s/ft.

With that cannon fuse for the final ignition phase, timing might not be perfect. A good stiff decent length rod, rail, or tower would be a good idea. Not that it's ever a bad idea.
