Waiting to see if someone is running dump valve in trans to control converter slip like the grudge, radial cars run

The old Griner/ Coan centrifugal lock up has been outlawed for 40 years. Not sure how you'd cut a light with one for breakout racing.
A mid class Stocker just does not have the oats to pull the extra weight of a lock up clutch disc..At best, a trade off...ET for MPH , IMHO.

Want 1 to 1 in high gear put a stick and a clutch in it!

Jeff Stout, exactly what I was referring to. You can set it up to come on whenever. And the ones that could use it are high rpm, 700+hp stockers
