We have had both in our car. The line lock is bit tricky to use. We are going to go back to the staging brake.

The e-brake would work but Brandon has the wilwood brakes so he doesn't have his e-brake.

yeah the line lock is more on off, I have the CNC staging brake it allows you to have more control.

I'm not sure that would work as i think the OP needs it to be dynamic enough to roll and set and then roll a bit more and set again in the staged beams.

I am under the impression that a straight linelock requires to pump the brake 3 times to hold line pressure and then released.

That might be tough if he's sitting on the anti-lag w/ the right foot and the left on the clutch.

Paul do you have two cylinders for front and back or each back wheel ?
Just curious, trying to figure out how to set this up.

Am I correct that if I would use a dual cylinder setup like Paul and run each line to the rear caliphers through one of the cylinders, plus installing a switch for the ABS.

That way when I wouldn't be at the track I would have ABS and also the resiliency of the stock brake line setup ?
