Rick,

just a few notes, I also plan on doing what you are talking about. I have not be able to get comfortable with the brake pedal mounted switch, to me, it seems clumsy. However, I know many racers use them successfully.

One way to switch the two step is with a brake/stop light pressure switch plumbed into a brake line. [example, Standard Motor Products # sls-27] This is a Ford stop light switch with 1/8" pipe thread and two male terminals.

Now, Of course, you need a safe way to activate/deactivate the two step. One method is a micro switch on the shifter so the two step only works in low gear, thus, no problem at the finish line.

Also, a toggle switch could be installed that completely turns off the two step power, deal is, it must be part of your staging routine to power on the two step before staging. I "think" the power disconnect switch could be left in the on position always, then you have the option to power off the system if the need comes up.

Another upgrade I plan to add is a brake line pressure gauge. I hear racers talking about consistently applying the same pressure when staging. Makes sense to me.
