the transmissions in the injected cars are not eletric-shift units you cannot take apples and oranges and make bananna pudding. just my 2-cents

As for the safety factor, if you are scared to pull the shifter with the front end hung up.... then you shouldn't be driving a car that hangs the front tires that high.

Stock is supposed to be STOCK! I'm falling in with Beard here. If you want the car to shift itself, get rid of the manual valve body, or use the factory computer to do your deed.

If you guys all get to have the e-shift, then I want all the stick cars to be able to have clutchless transmissions. Fair enough right!

Just another "enhancement" for our future.

If you're steering with any number of hands with the wheels in the air, umm... you're not doing anything. Pro Stockers drive with one hand. Where does an automatic shifter enter in as a safety device?

While we're talking safety, how about fire jackets mandatory for all drivers running 11.49-quicker?

Michael, what is wrong with the Jacket Rule?

I feel that everyone required to wear a helmet should also be required to wear a jacket-that's everyone, right?

As far as the transmissions and e-shifts, no one has mentioned that most of the cars that are now allowed to use the e-shift were not even available with a Turbo 200! Should they have to run a 700R4? Did they have a computer controlled transmission? I've got two stockers that (I think) were available from the factory with a Turbo 200. Why can't I let it shift automatically, whether it's electronically controlled or not? I'd probably make the 2-3 shift manually, anyway, so it's really no different than a Turbo 350 with the auto 1-2 that I'm currently running.

How do you get in touch with Len? E-Mail?

Why hasn't anyone answered Woodro's question about stick cars?

I was wondering the same thing about the handshift guys:confused:. My ears been listening to drag cars for many years and the stickshift cars I hear today don't always sound like what was normal years ago.....Maybe my ears are shot :(
