Has anybody ever set up a trans brake to be foot activated? Just thinking ahead a bit as to what would be the most comfortable or convenient set-up. Seems like the motion of dumping a clutch (releasing the T-brake) with the left foot while mashing the go pedal with the right would be a natural reaction deal. Just trying to keep it simple. Any thoughts? Good Idea - Bad Idea.

pretty sure the finger is quicker than a foot....just don't mount the button on a hand brake handle

Doc is correct, you can move your finger much quicker than your leg.

yea i remember reading i think it was Frank Hawley that ran some tests on human reaction time some years back.. it was amazing results.. we don't run one in either of our team cars..... need them though to play in the tough pro/et class as you need .020 or better lights if you expect to win these days.. I will guess that Bill will step up to a transbrake deal in the near future with his car.. next season Derek will take over his dad's car for hi-school and street et class.. so nothing will be changed at all cept oil and plugs ...

pro, You didn't do a vroom...vroom with your new steering wheel?????

I ain't buying it!!!!!! LOL

That's my story. No budie' was there but.....that's may story.

Try to get that button as close to the 7:00 position on the steering wheel as you can.

Mike, do you have a Co2 or solenoid shifter or just manually shift the shifter when you shift. Say that 3 times fast.

I just installed an electric shifter solenoid.

If your not Bruce Lee, or closely related, keep the button on the wheel.

Manually shift the shifter when you shift.
Manually sh*t the sniffer when you sift.
Manually snort the snot when you sniff.

Nope, can't do it.
