[QUOTE=Chris "drooze" Wertman;180776]Jerry, Called GForce today, theyve got some "used" refurbed units that are "nascar" 4 speed "clutch assisted" units for 2700 with shifter your choice Zgate or H

Apparently something changed in Nascar so they got all their leases back but its the same as the Drag, they said they can do any ratio combo on these.

Sounds like a good deal.....(only on 4's)

Can be shifted without a clutch just has momentary "neutral" while it does as opposed to the twin shaft delio....that always transmits power but that is called a clutchless, technically it wouldnt be legal from the way I read the rules, but the "clutch assisted" would be ? Is this "correct" ?

A lot of strange info on this thread. First off, the difference between a clutch assisted and a clutchless is the result of a split slider, the trans is actually in two gears at once when shifted but because of the speed of the gears, it pops out of the one gear as soon as the other is engaged. Regarding, shifting a clutch assisted trans without the clutch, nothing is needed as long as you have a faceplate type trans, you just reef on the shifter and it will engage the next gear. I have raced both clutch assisted (without the clutch) and clutchless, no big deal either way. In Stock where clutchless is not allowed, pretty much everyone is shifting without the clutch, this has been done for quite some time with no problems.
