The fun part is going to be figuring out when to let go of the button, and then how much delay I can back out of it or add. I left footbreaking in the middle of the 3rd yellow, but I,m thinking the first sign of 2cnd or3rd yellow would be much better and more consistent not in the middle, Tim




You'll have to figure that part out but your right,
you wont have to split a light(I cant do that for sh!t).
I could never get .3 out of it either

I agree with ya on that mr pbody as the old light was easier, but now everywhere is led and my reaction times are all over the place, get the odd good one then oh oh rely on the other guy to screw up more then you, not a good percentage. Which way on that button adds or subtracts time, Tim

If you want to ADD more time screw the red part down,
you will notice that the actual switch is right near
the top of the travel

mines mounted next to air shifter.But i use to run it at dash so i had to reach a little because i believe you have to look at how your body moves to pull your hand finger away.
I dont like the steering wheel i feel i grip it to hard to pull my thumb off and ready for the launch.Delay box guys can wait and move thier hands feel
racers are a qwirky bunch

In my dads duster we mounted it right behind the shifter. I do the whole arm motion and reach up and pull back 2nd. Just go through the motion a bunch in your car.
