This makes me ask a question. What about the "clean neutral" valve bodies I have heard about? It is my understanding, that it is a reverse pattern with a second neutral at the end of the pattern. In other words, is it possible to go to neutral at the end of a run and coast down to a stop? I am thinking that is the intention and purpose behind this. Maybe I'm wrong, but haven't talked to anybody about them. Also, if that is correct, it kind of makes the reverse pattern the same as regular forward pattern as far as accidentally going to neutral on a high gear shift. Am I not seeing this right? Any explanations of the 'clean neutral' are welcome and appreciated. I would like to go to neutral after a pass, but with reverse pattern,,,, 
Anybody have any info on this set-up?

You are correct in your assumtion 
I spoke with John Cope (CRT) and this option is only available with a trans brake. There are 2 neutrals one is after 3rd gear and the other shares the same position as reverse. To use reverse the trans brake button has to be activated.
Shift pattern; P, R&N, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, N
RMVB pattern; P, R, N, 1st, 2nd, 3rd
I like to go in neutral after the run also.
At the moment my Quarter Stick is modified in the gate to slap it from 3rd to neutral after the run 
Also talked with him about using a Forward VB and was recommended not to use with my HP & TQ level 
Really don't want to spend $800.00 for a Trans Brake VB that I'll never use being a Foot Brake racer.
Hope this clarifies things
