I should have said I bracket race only in no-box, not a class racer. If you're going to run a brake pressure 2 step and drive the stripe at all with the brake pedal you will need a shutoff switch. I use the pushbutton as it's simpler for me to turn it on and shut it off. I had a toggle switch and in the 1/8th mi. I would forget to shut it off down track so if I scrubbed the brake it would stutter.
To answer your question if I released the button on the wheel the 2 step would release and I would be full throttle on the foot brake so yes it would try to launch as I couldn't hold it on the line at full throttle. I don't have to remove my finger to launch, it controls the power to the brake pressure switch which in turn controls the 2 step.
I use it to level the playing field for me as I'm foot braking in no-box.
