Here's a really dumb question. I'll just ask it cuz you guys don't know me! ;-)
It sounds like you racers are pressing buttons as you're making your pass down the track. Is that the case? Choosing your shift points like a manual?
- Or is this only when you have installed a manual valve body in the transmission? I will have to fiddle with my car, to see how it acts in its stock configuration. My GTO had the Hurst Dual-Gate, and I always thought that it was a lame gimmick, since the cable did the same thing whichever gate you had the lever in. But it sure felt good to open the cover and slam that shifter handle down into the bottom of the "His" gate at a stop light!

We have even installed a pushbutton in a altered because of its efficiency. My grey 63 with street hemi was so equipped and was perfect in use. We used the reverse pattern valve body in the 63 and i recarved the buttons accordingly to FIRST, SECOND (left the same as stock) and WIN. It really ticked off the non mopar guys. I love the pushbuttons at the track.Don Author of Return to Deutschland (True Adventure) Old Reliable (Mopar) http://altonapublicschool.faithweb.com/ http://seniordragster.bravehost.com/index.html [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ----Please address private mail -- mail of interest to only one person -- directly to that person.
