I'm a bit puzzled how to connect it to the stock clutch setup though, can you offer any details on what's involved to make that happen? I think that's going to be a major sticking point for the average person. It needs to be easy to install

Is there any limitations to this setup in regards to the 60ft times that can be achieved? Sounds like a great product. As soon as its available for the stock setup I'll be looking into it.
Very nice unit... How sensitive is the unit though....
Lets say i launched on fresh black road versus and older road.... I typically have a little more traction on the new road, but not much more... I just have a little less wheel spin.. Does this need to be adjusted every single time, or if its dialed in pretty close it works.
Cheers!

It will be interesting to see if they can make "version 2" work correctly.
"Version 2" would be the only thing that would interest me as it would simply offer the ability to improve reaction times. Dealing with the shifts after the launch is some what trouble some though. I definitely don't see this being legal in the NHRA/NOPI sportsman classes and anybody considering running in those classes better contact the race officials before purchasing these unit or building something similar.
I like that you guys are tackling this with the intention of making it into something that just about anybody could use. For those that are more DIY, you can build something more cost effective than this for about $100. For those looking to buy parts and toss them on, $320 doesn't seem like a great deal, but it's not price gouging either.
I still like the idea of a staging brake more though. I think once you actually put this thing in the heat of battle, it's going to take some serious getting use to. There is a lot going on in competitive racing at the line and this is just one more thing to fowl up. A staging brake gives you a lot more added flexibility.
